THE WALKING DEAD & DEAD ARM SHIRAZ

What is it about a horror picture that makes us crave the next thrilling scene even more than than the one before? What is it in a glass of Shiraz that makes us frantically yearn for sip after sip? Valid questions to ask with both The Walking Dead & The Dead Arm Shiraz.

I embrace big, bold examples of Shiraz and shout out my praises with every pour. Likewise, Ben Baily seems to have similar opinions about terror in cinematography. "Embracing horror is like shouting, 'I’m not afraid of death, I’m entertained by it!' Our cultural love of horror is directly related to the reason people get Grim Reaper tattoos or wear t-shirts with skulls on them. We want to show everyone that death is in our control, not the other way around. It’s a way to give order to the universe, to reign in chaos."

To that end, I will raise a glass to finding order and fine-tuning chaos in what we see and sip - that which arouses anticipation and makes our palates plead.

  Cheers to shock and awe in what we sip & see.
