You can’t say these Living Supremacists don’t know their audience: “Zombies are coming…Where’s your shotgun?” was posted on the official Call of Duty: Black Ops II Facebook page. The announcement comes only days after the launch of the official website and the first revealed trailer for the upcoming sequel that will release for PlayStation 3, [...]

Sigh. The mainstream press really won’t let up with this ‘call anything we don’t like or find creepy a Zombie’ routine. Case in point, the ‘Zombie ant’ saga continues as researchers find that the previous, allegedly ‘Zombie’ making fungus is itself parasitized by another fungus: For the first time, researchers have discovered how an ant [...]

One of the biggest stories over the weekend that I wanted to cover in more detail was the launch of a major fundraiser for the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund… one predicated on outdated Anti-Zombie stereotypes. It gets worse: the Anti-Zombie stereotypes in question were devised by Neil Gaiman, noted author and previously-suspected Anti-Zombie provocateur. [...]

Our friends at the Horror Society alerted us to a fundraiser for upcoming, and clearly Anti-Zombie, project ‘Zombeach’: WHAT IS THIS? This is our newest project, “Zombeach”. It is a new kind of zombie apocalypse story. With the Jersey Shore giving the area a bad rap we are aiming to bring the focus back to [...]

When will the Disaster-Preparedness-Industrial-Complex realize it isn’t cool to defame Zombies to promote being ready for disasters? SOUTH KINGSTOWN, R.I. – What would happen if there was an outbreak of smallpox, flu or anthrax? The response would be the same even if zombies attacked. More than two dozen students at the University of Rhode Island [...]

The ZRC blog has previously reported on the trend (one might say epidemic) of Anti-Zombie library programs for kids. Well, here’s a library program that seems more Zombie Friendly and less Living Supremacist, once you get past mainstream media bias: f brain-hungry zombies were going to attack somewhere, the library would probably be one of [...]

Summary: Dark, twisted, gory and unrepentent, ‘A Cadaver Christmas’ is like a modern, drunken, somewhat overlong ‘Evil Dead’ set at a Community college. Zombies are very badly mistreated. Rated Living Supremacist. There are a lot of different kinds of Anti-Zombie movie (unfortunately). You have your Romero-esque social commentaries, your ‘Shaun of the Dead’-ish black comedies, [...]

Yet another film review from our recent trip to Chicago Fear Fest! Summary: ‘Dead Weight’ strikes a new and devious blow for Anti-Zombie films – it manages to marginalize the Zombies from the, ahem, ‘Zombie Apocalypse’! Rating: Full review behind the cut.

We debated whether to put it up for sale online even as we redesign the story, but hey, why not. For all your Deadite supporting needs, you can now get our lovely Pro-Deadite shirt in the ZRC store! We hope you enjoy them, and remember: it’s really all that evil book’s fault.

We’re no strangers to controversy, but I admit this one caught us off guard, as we got a fairly unhappy comment on the ZRC review for ‘Abraham Lincoln vs. Zombies’. I responded to the comment here, and I’m content to leave it at that, with two points of clarification: 1) The Zombie Rights Campaign will [...]
