The ZRC Visits the Drunken Zombie Film Festival

| November 7, 2010

So, before I could realize that I had apparently inflamed the tender egos of much of the nerdy world with a brief post dissing a silly video bashing Zombies, the Zombie Rights Campaign went on a trip to cloudy, grey Peoria, Illinois to see some short films in the Drunken Zombie Film Festival. This marks [...]

Security Updates

| November 7, 2010

Due to some fairly harmless attempts to spam our pages with garbage from one particular Mega64-loving troll (who shall remain nameless for now), the technical director is now in the process of updating our WordPress installation and adding some security plugins. I apologize in advance for any interruptions to service or the site, and suggest [...]

Some Anthropological Observations on the Subset of Mega64 Fans Who Came to Our Site

| November 7, 2010

Behind a cut to spare actual Zombie Rights enthusiasts the need to read anymore of the (admittedly hilarious) Mega64 trolling issue, seen previously here and here.

Wow, Lots of Dumb Responses to Mega64 Piece

| November 6, 2010

We got a ton of responses to the Mega 64 piece I put up yesterday, and I have to say: “Grow up, you mouth-breathing cretins.” When we got back this evening from our trip to the Drunken Zombie Film Festival I saw dozens of comments in the queue and my first thought was, ‘Gee, I [...]

Mega64 Tries (and Fails) to Be Funny About Zombies

| November 5, 2010

Mega64, for those not in the know (which included me, prior to today) is a sketch comedy show described as being akin to infamously stupid media product ‘Jackass’, but about videogames. From what I’ve seen.. that’s a fair cop. The most recent episode concerns the spate of Zombie videogames coming out of late, which, believe [...]

Zombie Short Films

| November 4, 2010

It may be anecdotal, but I’m certainly seeing a sharp rise in the number of Zombie-themed short films this year. From Cabine of the Dead to Lonely to the shorts we’re going to see this weekend at Drunken Zombie, the indie film circuit is just awash in films about the Differently Animated. Once our new [...]

A Touching Story

| November 3, 2010

Here’s a little gem I meant to share with you all a few days ago, about how attending Zombie Rights marches or Zombie Walks can bring people together, and who knows, you might even meet the love of your life? And said love might even be a Zombie, who can say?

The ZRC Will Be at the Drunken Zombie Film Festival

| November 3, 2010

Specifically, we plan to attend the Saturday evening portion of the film festival, the with all of the zombie movie shorts. We’ve seen Cabine of the Dead, but the others are new to the ZRC, and we look forward to appraising their content vis a vis Zombie Rights. In site news, the complete revamp of [...]

The Tea Party Takes Aim at Innocent Zombie Voters?

| November 1, 2010

From Newsweek: Mark Lloyd, 50, is a salesman in Campbell County, Va. Until a few years ago, he was only peripherally involved with politics. “I’d put signs in my yard, join the local Republicans,” Lloyd says. “But not like now.” When Lloyd “saw that our country was headed straight off to the left” after President [...]
