Zombie Solar-Cooker Attack- d.i.y. cooking/oven meets George Romero

Host Derek "Deek" Diedricksen gives us a look at a simple to build, fully functional, trash/salvaged-material (recycled) built solar cooker/oven, as part of his micro-architecture and small living book spin-off show "Tiny Yellow House" TV. Based on his book "Humble Homes, Simple Shacks...." (available through www.relaxshacks.com (featured by NPR, ReadyMade Magazine, Make Magazine, Shoestring Magazine, etc) and his upcoming follow-up book, Derek brings his designs to the screen with yet another episode. The particular clip takes a bizarre/unexpected twist as it shifts to zombie attack mode- a testament to Diedricksen's obsession with the movies of George Romero, Lucio Fulci, Dario Argento, and anything Zombie/Zombi attack/undead related. Part solar tutorial, part horror movie/flick.
Diedricksen additionally played the head zombie in the Fangoria-featured film "Die You Zombie Bastards"- which has won several film festivals worldwide.

Scaring the neighbours is always fun.

Looking at your oven, it made me wonder if you couldn't do something similar if you gutted an old flatbed scanner...
