The ZRC was thrilled about ‘Rigamortis: A Zombie Love Story’ and concerned about ‘ReAnimator’ as a musical, so it’s clear that stage musicals with the Differently Animated have a mixed (but promising!) track record. Still, this new one doesn’t sound good for The Cause: Song of the Living Dead, which opens Friday at the Black [...]

Just a quick update to note yet another peaceful and apparently successful Zombie Walk, this time in Salt Lake City. Although the media of course fails in this case to give the Walk the serious attention it deserves… sigh. We’re working on better media, folks. In the meantime, keep up the Walks! They really help [...]

Well, it seems that Robert Kirkman’s shadowy web of evil continues to expand: Robert Kirkman’s first in a three book series with Thomas Dunne Books, an imprint of St. Martin’s Press will hit shelves nationwide October 11th and is now available for pre-sale on Amazon.com. The book, which Kirkman co-authored with horror genre vet Jay [...]

This story is more than a tad bizarre, showing that, yes, they really will splash Zombies into just about anything these days: Holy freakin’ crap, just look at those zombie balls. You can thank the Jung van Matt/Elbe ad agency for this awesomeness. The bowling balls were designed to promote Germany’s 13th Street horror TV [...]

Really? The Differently Animated community doesn’t have enough trouble without two jokers from Bloody-Disgusting.com hosting a little online cage match to determine the best stereotype of Zombies? Welcome one and all to a brand new series here on Dead Pixels, home of all things geeky and videogame-y. TJ and I have been slaving over our [...]

I really don’t know what to make of truly awful, mercenary and opportunistic ‘journalism’ like this sometimes: Rioting, looting, muggings, cars and buildings on fire – London has witnesses apocalyptic scenes on its streets over the past three days. Scenes which many said looked like those from a film depicting the end-of-the-world. … The star [...]

I guess I should block off some time to really protest this one but good: Paramount Pictures announced that the zombie epic, World Word Z, will be released on December 21, 2012. Ahh, the ZRS shows their usual, err, flair for accuracy with this post, but we thank them for the news nonetheless. *snicker* Yes [...]

At conventions we talk to a lot of Zombie fans, as well as, frankly, fans of Anti-Zombie media (who just need some counseling I think to reform completely) and we always get lots of suggestions. ‘Fido’ usually comes up. ‘Colin’ has been mentioned a lot lately too. For a while there we heard quite a [...]

I actually signed up for this game and started playing it some time ago, but in a creepy way befitting its role as a ‘social game’/timesuck, kept delaying the actual review until I had seen just a bit more of the content, then a bit more, etc… So what is ‘Zombie Lane’? Well, it’s like [...]

Anti-Zombie… Bigots.. in.. Spaaaaaaaaaaaace! More or less: Manned space exploration might be more dead then you thought. “Call of Duty: Black Ops” is getting a zombie-only update named “Rezurrection.” The undead expansion will include a new moon level, enhanced soundtrack, new zombie moon theme and four re-mastered zombie levels from the Call of Duty franchise.
