The Dawn of the Dead remake honestly was one of the creepiest Zombie movies ever... and I totally agree with the Zombie Birth scene.

I'm a fan of Dawn of the Dead. I never read the comic books, but it appears they are staying pretty close to the story line from what I have read. I think the show is about to take on more of a surreal quality.. So far, a lot of it has been "believable". I think that's about to start changing and take on more of a Apocolyptic Horror/Mad Max kinda feeling. We will see.

And yes.. You shoot them in the head.. Twice.

Sounds like I'll be averting my eyes from the screen a lot in Season 3. And muting..

Issue #100 of the comic will be released in July so hopefully Compendium 2 will be out not long after.

Somehow I didn't imagine you a zombie fan Dagny. While I prefer the gentlemans monster, the vampyre, Ann Rice and the TEILIGHT series has left a sour taste in my mouth concerning vamps, hence why I currently write about zombies in my spare time. I have only seen the first season of WALKING DEAD, but from what I've heard, it's sort of veered off course?

FWIW, it's also explain it in the book "I am Legend."

I have no idea if your idea is the same, but it's not the first explanation to be out there.

Are you publishing your stuff, or just doing it for your own gratification?

I didn't imagine me a zombie fan, either. Have been derisive of the zombie genre and entirely uninterested.

And then I stumbled onto an episode, mid-way through, and before I knew what show I was watching, I was intrigued. And then I was hooked. But I do wish it were less gruesome.

Amazon.com has Season 2 streaming for $1.99 each episode.

Permuted Press is a prolific publisher and seller of new writers using the zombie genre. I've bought a few of my books based on surfing their site and really liked them.

BTW, clicking on the link above to see who the "Governor' is on TWD, it reminded me something that has always bothered me. How come Hollywood can make vest wearing look cool but every time I wear one I feel and look like a dork?

An oldie but a goodie (circa-1974) for post-apocalyptic fans: "Where Have All The People Gone?" Peter Graves stars.

You Tube is the only place I've seen it available. Not the best quality but it was originally a TV movie.
