One of the all-time great internet videos stars Zombie Kid (a.k.a. Jonathan), the lad at the state fair who shared his enjoyment of turtles with the world when interviewed by a local television news crew.
“I like turtles” is the stuff of internet legend, and the good folks trying to promote the new film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem did exactly what you think they did by the way this article introduction went.
Yes, Jonathan the Zombie Kid has made his triumphant return, makeup and all, to offer the exact review you’d expect for the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.

Like, c’mon, this is amazing. The new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie has debuted to some fantastic reviews, but none will hold more weight than that of Zombie Kid.
If he liked it, then the odds are very good for this one to uphold the high standards we all have for turtles.
Everyone was thrilled to see Zombie Kid back.
This is great marketing, because it makes me feel old. And it’s important to make people feel things. 🐢🐢🐢🐢 https://t.co/D9ZEx37Uvw
