Yes, and we had a very productive and often infuriating time watching almost all of the many Zombie-related films on offer. In total we saw 7 that were directly relevant to the ZRC mission, including ‘REC 3′, ‘Juan of the Dead’, ‘Zombie Bohemia’ and even the outrageous piece of revisionist history called ‘Abraham Lincoln vs. [...]

Well, ok, it’s hardly an exciting time to hang out with the ZRC alone (unless you’re just that enthusiastic about Zombie Rights and Undead Equality, in which case, we love you) but the ZRC is definitely taking Chicago FearFest up on this deal: With the fear fest coming up very soon, we got a special [...]

Our exploits over the weekend at Horrorhound Columbus were noticed by the local tentacle of the Mainstream Media, in the form of a reporter for The Columbus Dispatch. We got a pretty nice mention in their Horrorhound article, actually: At a vendor booth that bore the sign “The Zombie Rights Campaign,” Jenny Rowland of Madison, [...]

The Zombie Rights Campaign has officially returned from our hugely successful trip to Columbus, Ohio, agitating for Zombie Rights, and we have quite the story to tell you, Zombie Allies of the Internet: We arrived at the convention center for Horrorhound and found that we had been given a premium spot for outreach, right beside [...]

And boy are my arms tired! Well, no, it’s more my back after another 9 hours of driving, but hey. Got lots of photos to look through and upload tomorrow, emails to catch up on, Twittering and Facebooking (is that a verb?) as well. But for tonight? Sleep. Blessed sleep and dreams of a Zombie [...]

Posts and Tweets will be light Wednesday and Thursday as we’re off to Horrorhound for a weekend agitating for Undead Rights! Once there we will have lots of Twittering and pictures and outreach for you, and a full wrap-up on the blog after the convention as usual. We’re taking this Zombie Rights thing on the [...]

At The Zombie Rights Campaign we believe in creating as broad a coalition, and being as inclusive as possible in our quest for Zombie Rights and, even more expansively, toward Undead Equality. One of the questions we get asked most at conventions, on Twitter, via website comments or anywhere else is whether we stand for [...]

All right, all right; you’ve got us, Chicago Fear Fest. Even though you’re arriving right on the heels of our Ohio-excursion to Horrorhound in Columbus, The Zombie Rights Campaign can’t turn down this opportunity. First, you tempted us with a Chicago-premiere of sure-to-be-huge Anti-Zombie film [REC 3] and ‘Cadaver Christmas’, then you sweeten the deal [...]

We’ve mentioned before on the blog, but the ZRC is going to be in attendance at Horrorhound Columbus this March, and it’s a good thing, too! There’s a veritable bonanza of Anti-Zombie film stars (and a few Zombie Friendly ones) at the convention, particularly actors from the infamous 1985 Living Supremacist film ‘Day of the [...]

It’s a brand new year, and that means it’s time to plot out our next moves in the campaign for full and true Undead Equality here in America. How to reach this lofty goal? Well, in a word: outreach. Lots and lots of outreach. And outreach often means traveling to where people are and educating [...]
