Just wanted to drop a quick note on the blog about a horror film event coming up this Friday that might be of some interest to ZRC readers in the Chicago area: TERROR IN THE AISLES 12 The Ultimate Horror Triple Feature! September 14, 2012 THE STUFF, FRANKENHOOKER & IRON SKY Portage Theater 4050 N. [...]

That was a brisk weekend of outreach for the ZRC! Special thanks to ZRC pal Michelle Hartz, author of ‘Brains for the Zombie Soul‘, for capably operating our booth on Friday while I was otherwise detained learning about contracts and such. Zombies need contracts too, right? Horrorhound was of course inundated with Zombie-related media, and [...]

Come on by our booth in the vendor hall at Horrorhound and say hi! We have Zombie Friendly wares and literature and are very open to dialogue. It’s what we do.

Even on our short break the ZRC couldn’t help but notice the increasingly creative desperation AMC has to get ‘The Walking Dead’ back before millions of American satellite TV customers after a dispute with Dish Network. I mean, running a fake presidential campaign? That’s both ambitious and bizarre: A. Zombie, billed as the nation’s first [...]

Hello out there, Zombie Rights Allies and Knowledge-Seekers alike. Just a quick note from your ZRC President here to say that since I start law school orientation next week (to learn new tools and techniques to protect our clients and promote The Cause) the ZRC is taking a short semi-vacation until September 7th when we [...]

First, let me apologize for the belated post; ran into a few difficulties, including photographing some items. So the Thing Rights Campaign was devised, in part thanks to the encouragement of ZRC pal Michelle Hartz, to take the important issue of Things and their proper, and often sadly ignored, civil liberties to Flashback Weekend, featuring [...]

Been catching up on some stuff and housework after a very successful bit of outreach at Flashback Weekend. Will have a writeup soon, but suffice it to say we talked Thing Rights and Zombie Rights with some very important people. Also, saw ‘The Thing’ on the big screen. Which was sad, as it is a [...]

We’re not ones to shy away from the big issues here at The Zombie Rights Campaign. Mummies? We back them. Deadites? We’re there for them. The upcoming Flashback Weekend, starting tomorrow in Chicago, presented us with a unique opportunity and quandry, however. There’s going to be a once-in-a-lifetime sort of event, a 30th Anniversary Screening [...]

And that date is: October 27th. We’ll definitely be back in Elgin this year to help spread the word about Zombie Friendliness and the Global Reanimation Block Party! Last year was after all a huge success. Even if there were a lot of tragic stereotypes to fight. Hey, any event where you get to pull [...]

We posted our tentative public schedule a bit earlier this summer, but it’s good to confirm things as they shape up (or not) so the ZRC is happy to announce it will be attending Flashback Weekend this year in Chicago (August 10th-12th). However, we’re only attending this show, not vending, so there won’t be any [...]
