The ZRC Will Be at ‘Nightmare on Chicago Street’

| October 28, 2011

Remember the apparently No-Zombies-Allowed event being held in Elgin, Illinois this upcoming weekend that we previously mentioned on the blog? Well, clearly the ZRC wanted, nay, needed to do something about this disturbing instance of Zompartheid, and so we called in a couple of favors with our many connections in the horror community (ie, we [...]

We had a wild and crazy few days in Bloomington, IN for the annual pilgrimage to The Dark Carnival, and have now arrived safely back at ZRC HQ in Madison. Here is the festival that was: Day 2: The ZRC saw all the films we wanted to evaluate, including ‘A Chance in Hell’, ‘Fitness Class [...]

Reminder: The ZRC Will Be at The Dark Carnival Film Festival

| October 3, 2011

Sorry for the long weekend, I cannot divulge much yet but rest assured it was all for one of the ZRC’s ongoing secret projects. Mwa ha ha. Meanwhile later this month the ZRC will be attending The Dark Carnival Film Festival in Bloomington, Indiana from October 21-23rd. This is the fifth year we’ve gone, and [...]

A Short Break in the Name of Zombie Rights

| September 29, 2011

I have a bunch of secret projects on the burner just at the moment, one of which is super time-sensitive and needs a lot of work before Saturday, so the blog will be light for a few days. Rest assured we are still readily available on Twitter and email for any Zombie-related emergencies.

Geek.Kon and the ZRC: The Whole Story

| September 19, 2011

I’ve hesitated to write this post about our ill-fated attendance at Geek.kon all week, despite interested parties, Zombie Allies and dear friends asking about it in the intervening time, because the ZRC is about positive change, working toward a brighter tomorrow for the Living and Undead alike. We don’t like burning bridges. But, as longtime [...]

ZRC at Geek.Kon 2011!

| September 10, 2011

Sorry I didn’t have time to update much today, it was *crazy* at the Kon. First of all, had some setup issues, then there was a huge traffic jam I got caught in running a forgotten bit of supplies there, etc. However, all in all it was a fantastic first day. (Our mostly set-up booth. [...]

The Zombie Rights Campaign Official Statement on Geek.kon Controversy

| September 7, 2011

We received a comment here on the blog recently from an ‘animelover’ who seems to have trawled our archives back for months and discovered the post covering the ‘Zombie Walk Against Walker’, a prominent and highly successful bit of political activism by the Differently Animated here in Madison last spring. For the record, as we [...]

Back Online!

| August 22, 2011

Hey, guess who was able to fix his computer after only about 16 hours of solid work and torturous waiting? That’d be me, John J Sears, President of The Zombie Rights Campaign, that’s who! Or is it whom? Eh. Grammar can wait for when I’ve had some decent sleep. I honestly have no clue why [...]

Technical Difficulties At The ZRC

| August 21, 2011

The Zombie Rights Campaign is sad to announce an unplanned hiatus of unknown duration, most likely approximately one week, due to a much-depended-upon computer deciding to self-destruct. Any orders placed in our store will still be processed as usual, since those emails go to me (the Art Director), and my computer is still functioning (which [...]
