So Seattle and New Jersey have a rivalry going over holding the title of the World’s Largest Zombie Walk from the Guinness people (records, not beer) and apparently Seattle was slated to have another go on Saturday. The media coverage is.. shallow but supportive: There’s something alluring about zombies — that white skin, those sunken [...]

We talked recently on the blog about the odd and stunningly hateful request under a Freedom of Information law for information how how Leicester would respond to a ‘zombie attack’. Given that, this was pleasant follow-up news: The story became a hit on social networking sites, and prompted Mr Dixon to organise Saturday’s event on [...]

I wanted to share with you this amazing photojournalism series about a Zombie Walk in Moscow, cruelly dispersed by an authoritarian crackdown against the Differently Animated: This year’s Zombie Parade held for the 5th consecutive year, and it was noted by riot police arrests of participants. On Saturday at the Old Arbat, despite the rain, [...]

We wanted to highlight yet *another* apparently successful Zombie Public Event here on the ZRC blog, and also to point out how even the most peaceable and outgoing Zombie activities can suffer slander from the Mainstream Media, as well as unfortunate bias from organizers: On Saturday, hundreds gathered in downtown Boston for the seventh annual [...]

We love Zombie Walks, marches, public events of almost all sorts here at the ZRC. In fact, next Saturday we’re attending the big 4th Annual Zombie March in Chicago and we’d love to see you there. However, news of this ‘Zombie Crawl’ in Brooklyn being used to collect footage for a movie about Zombies attacking [...]

We mentioned this fun event before on the blog, a fun chance for the Undead to get out, have a Tiki themed party and enjoy themselves. Here’s a quick update to note that the event went off without violence or disruption, and hey, there are fun photos to be gazed upon as well. Sorry we [...]

It’s just outstanding how many great Zombie-related charity events we’re seeing lately. Case in point: Do you like zombies? Do you like to dress up? Do you like to dance? Do you like to help fight Juvenile Diabetes? Do you live in Utah or will be in the area around September 9th 2011? If you [...]

Here’s a contest our readers might well be interested in: With the news of the Centers For Disease Control And Prevention finally arming up in preparation for a zombie attack, it’s a great time for The A.V. Club’s Editor Keith Phipps to join Chicago comedians Dan Telfer and Adam Burke in a night of undead [...]

I’ve mentioned before that the Greater Chicago Area is one of the true heartlands of Zombie Liberation here in America, and that they have a ridiculously wonderful number of Zombie events. Well, here’s another one, although I question the use of the word ‘Terror’: Retro Zombie Tiki Terror the 3rd! … 5:00pm- Doors Open 5:00 [...]
