Let's switch gears and get into some of that obscurity we promised, alrighty?
If you haven't seen the 1981 Italian zombie flick, Burial Ground (Review), then you're missing out on an excellent old-school zombie flick. No one did zombies like the Italians did in the late 70's/early 80's. Their zombies were actually zombies -as in they actually came back from the grave- as opposed to the viral contagion/crazed infection BS that constitutes "Zombies" these days. These movies, and this one in particular, had atmosphere to spare.
This movie also had a creepy kid in it named Michael, who was played by a creepy looking dude in his mid-20's. Honestly, based on looks alone, this kid is a Creeper Deluxe. Throw in his actions, and well... he's kind of on his own plane.

You see, Michael loves his Mother. She may be a randy slut, but she's the apple of his eye. So when he makes his move and starts kissing her rubbing her boobs, and tries to make love to her butt with his finger, it all seems "tender and loving..." which is code for "unsettling and creepy."

Later on in the movie Michael becomes one of the undead, and his dear mother offers up her bare tit to him, only to have him bite off a chunk and chew on it... I don't know which scene is creepier, but the fact that we cant decide if the kid was creepier before or after he becomes a zombie says it all.
