I appreciate an attempt to delve into ‘Zombie Culture’ but I think this video misses the mark and instead hits the Zombie Cosplay segment of the horror community (a practice also known at least under some circumstances as ‘Greenface’):

In reality, Zombie Culture is about so much more than just scaring people. It’s a diverse community with widely varying political, social and economic interests, not simply an excuse to dress up in public, as fun as that might be.

Food for thought, Seattle. If you genuinely want to be the World Capital of Zombies it’s going to take more than a convention and some latex prosthetics. It’s going to take tolerance and understanding as well.

(On a final note, I think Chicago also has a very credible claim to being the World Capital of Zombies, given their extremely wide variety of Zombie-related public events, but it’s probably good to see competition for this sort of title between cities in general)
