ZRC at Freakfest 2010

| October 22, 2010

The Zombie Rights Campaign will be making its annual protest appearance at Freakfest, the official, soulless marketing term for Madison’s enormous annual Halloween costume contest/party spectacular. You can check out the Freakfest lineup here; this year for a musical act they landed OK Go, which is actually pretty awesome. If past years are any indication [...]

Dr. Cancer and the SKAmbies in Pictures

| September 8, 2010

I apologize one last time for the quality of these shots, and rest assured I have resolved the issues (I think) in time for our big RE: Afterlife rally this Friday. No, the lights didn’t go out! This is what happens when funky fluorescent lights overwhelm a Canon Powershot’s automatic configurations. Here’s a better shot, [...]

This year, close out the convention with a bang! Dr. Cancer was an unsuccessful, washed up, loner until he had [...]

Musical of the Living Dead?

| August 8, 2010

You’re reading that correctly; a theatre group in Chicago is staging a Zombie musical. Sadly from the description it appears that this is going to be a retrograde and repressive show pushing all the usual outmoded anti-Zombie stereotypes. You know the ones I mean: Billed as a “Musical Zom-com” (zombie comedy), Musical of the Living [...]

Zombie Pop Music

| May 17, 2010

The ZRC was contacted recently by a Philadelphia based musical duo who apparently appreciate our work on behalf of the Differently Animated… because they’re a Zombie-Pop band. Say what? From the email: Rainbow Destroyer is a zombie-pop duo based in Philly. Brian Reignbow and Rainbeaux Bite are two undead divas brought to life by a [...]
