In the Rec room there's a black and white poster in the background that, I think, reads "The Aren't Labeled Chum(?)". Can anyone make out if that's what it really says, and what that poster is all about? I'm sure it was put there for a reason. Thanks, Dan

That's definitely interesting. :) What's that thing on her head then? A huge hat? Looks like a giant Petri dish lid to me. Dan |

Voila….my google-fu is strong today…scroll down here: link
And you'll find this:
There is a line art poster of a woman in the rec room with the phrase at the top, "THEY AREN'T LABELLED, CHUM", and she is holding a tag that reads, "I HAVE Vd!" This may be a reproduction of a WWII-era "public service" poster warning G.I.s on furlough about venereal disease. |

I'm pretty sure I've seen that particular one before, but I couldn't find it this time. This is the closest:

Took me a while to figure out that there was a missing comma in the OP. There's a bit of difference between "They aren't labelled, chum" and "they aren't labelled chum". I was stumped trying to make a connection between chum (fish entrails and other bits) and a woman with an STI… |

Willthepiper Lol. Good catch (pardon the pun)! Dan |

Here is a different angle of the screen shot with the VD! link |

That's it! Thanks so much. It's interesting how, just a short while later, McReady conducts in that very same room his Petri dish test with a heated wire on their blood. Dan |

"They aren't labelled" is one of the themes of the movie -- it's not obvious who is actually a thing and who is still all human. |

Exactly. And they had just found shredded clothes twice in the film. The first time in the kitchen, with the name tag removed. The second time in a heat stove, but with McReady's name tag on them. Dan |

Early in the film, when the dog stops in the doorway, whose shadow is that looking back at him from the room? He's the first guy infected. |

Oh man, now you're gonna make me have to look it up! :) Dan |
