Sigh. The number of Hollywood stars who’ve decided to let their Anti-Zom flag fly and sign on for World War Z is depressing sometimes.

Naturally we feel the need to respond to their allegations and slanders. Here’s the first part [...]

As previously discussed, however, the Marketplace for Xbox downloadable games is a hotbed of Anti-Zombie media, and Microsoft seemingly has no problem letting legions of Living Supremacist developers [...]

Yes, as previously discussed here on the blog when we covered the Malta shoot for ‘World War Z’, Glasgow is in the sights of these ridiculously ambitious Living Supremacist filmmakers and the apparently very involved shooting process is coming up now: The streets of Glasgow can get a little quieter with the onset of the [...]

We talked with some concern here on the ZRC blog about how Square Enix had picked up distribution duties on the odious Living Supremacist game ‘Dead Island’ to help ensure it receives wider release here in the US. Well, their commitment to hating the Differently Animated doesn’t just extend to shuffling plastic around, as it [...]

I had sincerely hoped that this behemoth of Anti-Zombie prejudice masquerading as a film would crash and burn, but it seems that ‘World War Z’ is a reality we will have to confront for some time to come: This summer World War Z is going to be shot within England and they need a TON [...]
