Default Zombies - Can there ever be too many?

You know I love zombie stories. I don't know why but I just love them. My wife rolls her eyes at the collection i have built up both DVD and books on the topic. I can't explain my interest other then I think they are the most bad ass classic horror figure out there.

What is it about them I love? Not sure, I think it is the survival aspect. Where the numbers are against you and really if you just sit tight 9 out of 10 times you would live but run out of food and die so requires action. There is a formula in place but so many variables you can add to it to make it interesting.

Anyone else love the zombies?

Love, love, love the zombies! My husband rolls his eyes, too. But of course I often reply to his questions about why I am doing something with...


"You'll be glad I did when the Zombie Apocalypse happens."


That really gets him rolling his eyes.

It's the survival aspect, I think. Not to mention rampant violence against something human, but not human. You get upset and go postal in everyday life- prison sentence. Your mother in law turns into a zombie, why, it's ok to decapitate her.

Just an example :-)

Man great example with the mother in law haha

Great outlook, heck if you ever get to pull out the "i told you so card" when it comes to a zombie apocalypse, i mean... thats a keeper!

i just wrote a my 10th zombie short story. trying to build up enough for a collection. thinking about maybe making a few characters and stringing the stories together and maybe make it a novel... not sure
