Matt Boiselle Promise rings, engagement rings, wedding rings. They all have their own certain meaning to the ones that we hold so dear to us. Whether it's meant to express " I Love You", or " I promise to marry you"........or " I don't care about the fact that you are a diseased, contagious out of control undead stark-raving lunatic that will probably hunt me down and chew off my face", these

Matt Boiselle The unholy union has finally come to light in a comic book format that is sure to entertain even the most hardcore of zombie fans. What better to see than a group of flesh-craving undead freaks stalking a bevy of bodacious, perky, scantily-clad cheerleaders ?In Zombies vs. Cheerleaders Vol.1, created by Steven l. Frank, we are treated to lots of skin and gore that will not only

Terry SwademerThere is a very interesting article posted by Michelle Ealey on sciencefiction.com entitled “How Probable is a Zombie Virus Outbreak?” In this day and age, everything has some type of connection to zombies whether it is books, video games, movies, etc. All this overload of zombies leads one to wonder can it happen? Can a zombie outbreak actually occur? According to this article the

Todd Jepperson“A little girl’s Spring Break turns into her worst nightmare”Maya’s Journal is a short film by writer, creator, and producer Nadine L’Esperance which tells the story of a little girl named Maya. Maya’s dad apparently fell apart after her mother died and turned into a full-blown alcoholic. Early in the film, we learn that he’s pretty much a deadbeat as he makes empty apologies for

Matt Boiselle We as fans of the undead revel in the fiction and storylines that entertain us not only in books, but movies & videogames as well. There is a certain sense of satisfaction that comes over zombie enthusiasts when we witness the images of the infected wreaking havoc on the unsuspecting and overwhelmed victims that are soon to become a human buffet for the living dead.But what if the

Andy RossHave you ever wondered what you would do if you survived a zombie-filled apocalypse? What would your role be in the rebuilding of the human race? Zone One by Colson Whitehead tells the story of a man known as Mark Spitz, who survived the initial onslaught of the living dead. We meet Mark Spitz as he is working with his team to take down the remaining “skels”, referred to as stragglers.

Matt Boiselle For any discerning zombie-movie aficionado, I'm pretty sure that (most) of us can agree that in order to make a halfway decent zombie film, just add some hordes of the undead into virtually any situation and watch the fun begin. Well after watching Stag Night Of The Dead, I can certainly concur with that statement.If you are looking for a good-time, laugh out loud, beer swilling,

Matt Boiselle According to the Mayan calendar, the year 2012 will be an apocalyptic one, including but not limited to, fire and brimstone, seas boiling, and general mass destruction. Basically all of the aforementioned instances would make the ordinary human being either shudder in fear, or simply dismiss it like it were yesterday's news, but one thing is sure. survivalists will be wringing

Matt Boiselle One saying that has stood the test of time and couldn't be truer in my opinion is " that it is better to give than receive", and this surely applies to the holiday season.

Matt Boiselle Many movies have come and gone with the undead brand attached to them, some noteable, many forgettable. But I will go on record and say that my favorite of all time without a doubt is The Return of The Living Dead. I first saw this movie in the Summer of 1987 on VHS with my brother and from that moment on I was hooked: gore, humor, storyline, great characters, excellent atmosphere.

David Brown If you are an avid reader of the site, you will no doubt remember all of the fun coverage that we have had in regards to a little game by the name of Dead Island. We have brought you story points, videos, character info and even preorder bonus information. Now that the game is out none of that really matters. The one big question on everyone’s mind is whether or not the game is fun

Todd JeppersonTUCKER & DALE VS EVIL is a hilariously gory, good-spirited horror comedy, doing for killer rednecks what Shaun of the Dead did for zombies. Tucker and Dale are two best friends on vacation at their dilapidated mountain house, who are mistaken for murderous backwoods hillbillies by a group of obnoxious, preppy college kids. When one of the students gets separated from her friends,

Over fifteen years ago, the world was rocked and rotted by Capcom’s record shattering Resident Evil series. Putting gamers in the nerve-shattering world of survival horror, Resident Evil saw more longevity with its later sequels of Resident Evil 4 (RE:4) and Resident Evil: Code Veronica (RE:CV.) RE:4 blew gamers away with its birth on the Nintendo GameCube, its amazing graphics, re-focused game

Matt Boiselle Releasing on ITunes and on DVD in the U.K. this January 9th comes a new take on the Zombie genre. In " Stag Night of the Dead", we follow a close group of friends and a very voluptuous stripper heading to a run-down military base for what can only be called as the greatest stag party experience known to man. I mean think about it, what could be better than to gather up a

David Brown In the face of the zombie outbreaks we all wonder how we can stop the ever advancing undead.  Well our friends over at Spy Films have found a new way.  In their video Yoga Outreach - Zombies, they show the true powers of yoga and the way that we can use it to help fend off zombies. Watch the video below and be amazed. Yoga Outreach - Zombies from Spy Films on Vimeo.

Well to add to that we are glad to report that a bit of leaked footage has hit the internet.  The footage shows a zombie attack from the film.  Click below to watch it, but do so quickly before the zombies over at YouTube devour this clip with rapid ferocity.

David Brown Well, the countdown is officially over.  Dead Island has been released today and if you are like me you are very excited for the long trek ahead. This massive game has many zombies to kill and hidden secrets to find.  With this in mind Deep Silver, in conjunction with Brady Games, is releasing an iPhone app retailing at $2.99 via the app store to coincide with the games release.
