# Undead Founding Fathers The Zombie Presidents of Jeremy Plemon Feast on the Brains of Tyranny By Harris Jay Rosenberg Alterman | Published 2012-01-31 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zombie-presidents References: [buzzfeed](http://www.buzzfeed.com/abrams/zombie-presidents) & [etsy](http://www.etsy.com/shop/PlemonStudios) Artist Jeremy Plemon has created four Zombie Presidents, which would make a fantastic premise for a [B level movie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popcorn-coffin). These presidential men have all been bitten with the urge of freedom, as well as the urge to feast upon brains. Imagine going to the grave of Abe Lincoln to pay respects to a man that abolished slavery and then a fleshy hand burst from the ground. All of a sudden out pops the iconic president with maggots everywhere as he does the [classic zombie moan](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zombie-apocalypse-red-bull-infusion). This is the terrifying world that Plemon has created. If the Zombie Presidents were to run for office in this day and age, they would probably lose due to their aggressive and indecipherable debating skills. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 47% | Activity: 58% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Zombie Art:** Opportunity for artists to create unique and attention-grabbing artwork featuring zombie versions of historical figures. - **Horror Movies:** Potential for filmmakers to capitalize on the popularity of zombie themes by creating B-level movies featuring zombie presidents. - **Political Satire:** Opportunity for comedians and satirists to use zombie presidents as a humorous commentary on current or historical political events. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art:** Artists can explore the market demand for zombie-themed artwork and create unique pieces that appeal to horror and pop culture enthusiasts. - **Entertainment:** Film industry can produce low-budget horror movies that feature zombie presidents as a unique and intriguing premise to attract a niche audience. - **Comedy:** Comedians and satirists can incorporate the concept of zombie presidents into their routines to provide humorous and thought-provoking commentary on politics and society. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Grotesque Halloween Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloween-pizza-campaign.md) - [Undead Easter Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sugar-plum-chocolate-zombie-bunny.md) - [Charming Creepy Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deddy-bears.md) - [Zombie Survival Challenges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bullets-brains.md) - [Distorted Burger Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ailloween.md) - [Pet-Friendly Presidential Stays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/presidents-day-packages.md) - [Apocalypse Post Pandemic Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-urban-art.md) - [Horror Film-Inspired Cookbooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/death-for-dinner-cookbook.md) - [Halloween-Ready Animatronic Line-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloween-animatronics.md)
