As the "new comedy" genre, zombies and horror movies in general are enjoying quite the resurgence.
New movies, and classic remakes aside, merchandising, posters, books, home videos, DIY projects, fashion, social events and viral YouTube recreations have all cashed in on the undead.
Not-to-be-forgotten movie inspirations in the horror movie culture include Child’s Play, The Exorcist, Evil Dead, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Dawn of the Dead, Zombieland, and of course, the accompanying "B" Movie industry!
