Has the corporate world made you into a cubicle zombie?
The 2009 horror comedy Office of the Dead offers a pretty good premise for a satire that hadn’t really been tackled yet in the zombie genre: the lifeless drone that office life can make us. Add in the Shaun of … Continue reading
The zombedy that’s actually about flesh-eating demons
Dead Before Dawn is a teen comedy that happens to have demons in it. Although, they are really just zombies being called demons. So this kid’s grandfather owns an occult shop, and there’s this skull urn the kid has been … Continue reading
Zombie double feature: the undead, old people, and an army of mercenaries
Nothing like a totally random zombathon! This time around, I watched the horror comedy Cockneys vs. Zombies and a cheesy Uwe Boll produced horror action flick with the generic title of Zombie Massacre. COCKNEYS vs. ZOMBIES (2012) I guess if … Continue reading

Check your boobs at the door (where they’ll definitely get eaten)
Strippers! Prostitutes! Burlesque dancers! Zombies! If you go into any of the 3 movies I’m about to discuss with ANY expectation other than boobs and blood, than a) you’ll be sorely disappointed, and b) you have no taste in movies. … Continue reading
Check your brain at the door (where it will probably get eaten)
Way back in 1985, just after George Romero’s official third installment in the “of the dead” series hit theaters, the campy horror Return of the Living Dead, an unofficial continuation, was released, and did something Day of the Dead didn’t. … Continue reading

Dance of the Dead…No, it’s not the name of my latest gay zombie novel
Remember the classic Night of the Creeps? In that 1986 horror comedy, a bunch of college teenagers have to fend off the zombies their friends become after being inhabited by some nasty slug thingies. 2008’s Dance of the Dead has … Continue reading
