Apparently we’re at a point in our civilization where running an illicit drug lab is seen as socially acceptable, but being a Zombie is not: Synopsis Small town suburban burn-outs are starting a business in the only industry they know, drugs. Set out to produce and sell a drug that gives a perfect high, Vinny [...]

I honestly don’t know what to make of this little flash game with a choir of Zombies you can direct, but it doesn’t seem Unfriendly to Zombies at all, so I’m sharing it with our readership as a bit of probably harmless fun. Enjoy.

What is it with reunion tours, anyway? Is it just me or are they nearly constant now. With some bands I’d almost say they just break up to boost enthusiasm for the inevitable reunion tour. At any rate, ‘Goblin’, most infamous amongst Zombie Rights advocates for their work on the ‘Dawn of the Dead’ soundtrack, [...]

Remember ‘Blood Lodge’, the Anti-Zombie film in development that features Zombies being excluded from yet another public accommodation, this time a ski lodge? Not your ‘typical’ zombie movie, eh? Let’s see: extremely negative depiction of a ‘horde’ of the Differently Animated attacks a remote but fortifiable structure and an assortment of colorful strangers have to [...]

We reviewed MadWorld here at the ZRC totally by accident; I had no idea there were Zombies involved when I purchased the game. (The ZRC determined that the blood-soaked and ludicrously violent game was neutral on the Differently Animated, as it treated them precisely the same as the Living: badly.) Still I have to say [...]

While we’re happy in general to get sympathetic attention directed at Zombies, this.. isn’t actually a Zombie. At least, not a Zombie *person*. Meanwhile, check out the ‘statement’ from this ‘Zombie’, who they purport to be a regional chairman for the Zombie Anti-Defamation League: Aaaa-UUUHHHHH-nnngh! Why people run from zombie? Zombie not hurt you! Zombie [...]

Relatively recently (ok, it’s been up in my tabs for a while), Fangoria looked at a few of the upcoming wave of Anti-Zombie books coming out: As they continue to shamble (or run) off the presses, it’s clear that zombie books still…won’t…die. Since our roundup of the subgenre’s last ration of offerings (see here), upcoming [...]

Geez, PopCap. Between the seventeen thousand known versions of Plants vs. Zombies* and the various merch that pops up, some authorized, some not, those of us in the Zombie Rights Movement are starting to feel like you’ve taken a page out of the Spaceballs playbook. What’s next, Plants vs. Zombies: The Placemat? or Plants vs. [...]
