Just a quick bloggy reminder to everyone in the Chicago area, there’s an enormous Zombie March scheduled for June 5th at Millenium Park. Come out and show your solidarity with the Differently Animated! We’ll be there, doing our usual agitating thing.

So, after considerable thought, the ZRC has decided to purchase ‘Survival of the Dead’ on Xbox Live as a digital rental of some sort. The terms are fairly onerous; you have to watch the file within 14 days, once you’ve started watching you only get 24 hours until it’s no longer yours, and for this [...]

Ahh, film festivals. The ZRC likes going to film festivals. Last Saturday we went to the Women of Horror 2 festival in Chicago, and a lengthy post about it is just now going up because the hotel didn’t have free wifi, and the thought of uploading a ton of HD pictures with some pay system [...]

Ahh, convention season. So busy. Though our next trip is a bit easier on the old driving muscles (aka my aching lower right leg).

I keep forgetting, amidst all the behind the scenes stuff, to update the blog. I am deeply shamed. We went to Horrorhound a week and a half ago, and man was it a lot of fun in the name of Zombie Rights. This year we didn’t have a booth, unfortunately, but we made up for [...]

Since then we have been in discussions with the game’s creator and publisher, Mr. Wayne West of Spare Brains Games, and the ZRC has found the dialogue most productive. So productive and conducive to [...]

We’ve just gotten confirmation that we can share some booth space at Horrorhound, and so the ZRC will be full strength and capitalism ready at Horrorhound one week from today! *cheering* Yes, come out to Horrorhound on Indianapolis’… err…. somewhat crime-ridden, dilapidated East side… ahem. We’ll be there! The Zombies will protect you! In all [...]

Just wanted to put up a quick post about the ZRC’s public appearance schedule for the year so far. March 27th -28th: Horrorhound (Indianapolis) The ZRC will be in attendance but only as spectators this year, due to, well, quite frankly, we’re not sure. Horrorhound seems to be having a lot of trouble keeping in [...]

Lots of images of our highly successful outing to B-Movie Madness 2 last weekend in Chicago. I apologize for the graininess of these pictures; our digital camera is rather elderly, and the new camera model we are looking to upgrade to doesn’t come out until next month. (Images behind this cut to spare our bandwidth [...]
