Crank your outrage up to 11, people, it’s another Anti-Zombie book marketed at children: Pat the Zombie is an adult themed spoof of the children’s classic Pat the Zombie. By adult I do mean violence and not sex for those wondering. Sex with zombie bunnies? That just doesn’t sound good on any level! No this [...]

There was a fascinating column up the other day on The Zombie Feed from their resident Zombie Advice columnist, Putrescence. The advice-seeker wanted some counsel on what to do about a friend that seems to be a closeted Zombie: How do you ask someone something like that? Hey, man, are you dead? Maggots got you [...]

Remember when we auctioned off a copy of the movie companion book for ‘By Her Hand, She Draws You Down’ for the Horde for Humanitarian Aid? Yeah, I thought you did. Well, now you can get the E-book version, which is *almost* as cool. We think you’ll like it. (A reminder: the ZRC Review of [...]

I actually have an adorable Zombie hat of my own which I need to photograph someday; the art director made it for me. I was thus very happy to see that we’re not the only ones who like friendly looking Zombie hats: One of our readers, John Fertig, was kind enough to send in a [...]

Periodically measures come up attempting to [...]

We’ve talked about automobile advertising here before on the ZRC blog, believe it or not, with the odious and hateful campaign Ford did for the Fiesta not too long ago. Thankfully there are more enlightened auto companies out there, and Honda has a new ad series that features a remarkably open and tolerant depiction of [...]

Here’s a bit of an roundabout way to get the ZRC talking about Zombies. Neil Gaiman and some very talented friends set out to make an album in 8 hours; 8 songs, hence the band name of ’8in8′. The project was surprisingly successful, though it was as frequently observed only 6 songs in 12 hours, [...]

I trust nobody’s going to mind much if I talk about Madison’s ongoing activities if there’s free stuff involved: Singer Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine has always been a strong supporter of working people. Morello was so inspired after taking part in a demonstration and headlining a concert in February for the protesters [...]

I was forwarded this story rather vociferously and repeatedly on Twitter, which only goes to show that we have an engaged following even internationally, which is very humbling for The Zombie Rights Campaign. In short, although great progress has been achieved in some areas, especially here in the ZRC’s home base of Madison and in [...]
