Zombie Films have still got it

Posted August 29, 2009 at 1:57 am by Jeff

It’s 3 in the morning and I’m sitting here watching Diary Of The Dead. I must say George Romero and more so Zombie films in general still have “IT”. It isn’t just one thing. They have several factors that make “IT”. They still after all of these years have the ability to scare the “hell” out of us.

When There is No More Room In Hell The Dead Will Walk The Earth

Zombie films have an ability to make people scared. Unlike other horror films Zombie films give you that what if feeling. The feeling that all of this is just a second away from happening… or even worse, it already is happening. They unlike any other horror film reflect society in a very clever introspective way and that I believe makes everything that much more real and scary

Looking In The Mirror

Romero loves to point out society and its good and bad characteristics in his films. In Night of The Living Dead Romero focuses on the racism and patriarchy all over America. In Dawn of the Dead Romero focused more on Consumerism and Capitalism. Romero isn’t the only writer and director who focues on including these reflections into zombie films. its been a common practice among films lately.

Don’t Be Afraid To Run

Zombies are real people. This is what makes it that much more horrifying. Zombies don’t eat flesh out of an evil animosity towards the living but out of an innate hunger. The zombies try to continue on their roles by doing it is they were used to doing all the time. It is what draws us to the zombie film.

All I know for sure is Zombies are scary as hell.

The Swine Flu… Zombie Coverup

Posted April 27, 2009 at 9:00 pm by Jeff

Hey guys. I wanted to point out a few odd things i’ve noticed about the swine flu. A few of the latest news articles really could point to a media/governement zombie coverup.  The Zombie Survival Guide calls for several clues that a zombie outbreak could be present. Here is an excerpt from the book discussing warning signs of a potential zombie outbreak.

“Disease-based deaths in which either the cause is undertermined or seems highly suspect. Deaths from infectious disease are rare in the industrialized world, compared to a century ago. For this reason, new outbreaks always make the news. Look for those cases in wich the exact nature of the disease is unexplained. Also, be on the alert for suspicious explanations such as West Nile Virus or “mad cow” disease. Either could be examples of a cover up.”

This exact excerpt has been bugging me so I wanted to put it out there. Read any blog the fact that a virus could be causing all this is kinda odd, that being said its not impossible.

The signs are there for a zombie coverup, just go to CNN.  To be fair, its highly unlikely that this could be an actual zombie outbreak but it could be the beginning. Either way its not gonna hurt to be prepared whether this is a zombie outbreak or a horrible swine flu. Better safe than sorry.
