Of late we’ve been in a bit of a spat with the ‘Zombie Research Society’. They think the Undead are a menace to fight with shotguns and grey ribbon; we think they’re our clients and deserving of advocacy and protection. Clearly we’re right, and someday we’ll bring them around. In the meantime, the ZRS chose [...]

We got linked to this trailer for an upcoming Zombie Musical (yes, really!) on Twitter and it seriously blew our minds. What to think about ‘Rigamortis: A Zombie Love Story’? Well, the best way I can describe it is Dr. Horrible meets Zombies. And it looks seriously Zombie Friendly! The story: After humanity quells an [...]

Background: There’s a t-shirt site, Shirt.Woot!, that sells shirts based on, amongst other things, user/crowd submitted designs. Once a week they hold a contest of sorts, where a theme is selected and people submit potential shirt designs based upon that theme. Winners get paid and to see a shirt they created manufactured. This week’s theme [...]

When Harcos Labs, makers of Zombie Blood Energy Drinks posted a picture of these awesome banana zombies, we had to know more. As it turns out, they’re [...]

Our long-time conversant and occasional ideological sparring partner Stuart Conover over at BuyZombie has a request that I think we all should look into helping out with: Help Me Win A Zombie Wedding I try not to ask for much on this site so when I do I hope you know that I’m really hoping [...]

Just wanted to comment upon a couple of shirts that went up at Threadless.com recently. First we have the blatantly offensive and Anti-Zombie shirt ‘The Horde’, depicting, you guessed it, a horde of Zombies surrounding a lonely protagonist: Once again we have an irresponsible ‘creative’ type pushing the discredited ‘Zombie Apocalypse’ scenario, complete with that [...]

Just a quick update on non-protest matters to talk about this so-called ‘Whimsy Print’ for ‘Dawn of the Dead’, created by artist Dave Perillo: What if George Romero’s classic Dawn of the Dead was a Disney animated film? Well, luckily you don’t have to worry about that happening, but this original illustration by cartoonist Dave [...]

Usually these t-shirt sites are helpful, or spiteful, enough to give us quite a bit of description/text for context, but for this shirt, depicting the logo of a Zombie diner in Evans City, PA (hint: the nearest town to the farmhouse in the ‘Night of the Living Dead’ films), we’re not given much to go [...]

We were happy to see our Zombie Friendly original shirt design get featured on BuyZombie today, though we’re still working on changing their views vis a vis ‘Zombie killing’: Our friends over at The Zombie Rights Campaign have a great zombie shirt out. While we may not always see eye to eye (they are pro-zombie [...]
