This is not a joke. We are alone and constantly battling for our lives.

Trapped by undead, need help. This is our situation. We are trapped. We are currently located in the main building of a summer camp called New Life Ranch on the northwest outskirts of King's Canyon National Park. [via *.*]

See, I told you the army was over extended in Iraq, now there's not even enough soldiers to help out these poor kids.

So this is our new website/blog for our production company North of Three Films. Me and my friend Mitch live in a small town in northern CA called Barlow, but we're moving to LA next week and will be writing about our trials and tribulations in becoming the worlds most kick ass production conglomerate. We will be posting some of our shorts and maybe some scripts we are working on. .... Is there perhaps a zombie film in the making somewhere? I love zombie-films.

best blog ever?

It's a funny idea in itself. Hopefully it's not an attempt at generating Blair Witch-style hype for an indy film.

Is the zombie site related to Shaun of the Dead, perhaps? [Flash trailer here]

You know, when the real zombies show up and all you've got to call for help is your blog and no one comes, this won't seem so cute.

As a zombie (warning: self link), I find some of the anti-zombie stereotypes being spread in the mainstream media disgusting. Sure, a few bad apples clumsily plod along in search for fresh living brains, but plenty of us have families and jobs and unlives of our own! To see these sickening generalizations spread to blogs -- once an outlet for the open-minded -- is disappointing to say the least.

an interesting, if limited, comedic approach. no wait, this is the audience that made buffy a tv staple for years. never mind. no wait, which came first, the chicken or the egg? is the blog a spinoff of tv-induced zombiphilia, or are both signs that the undead have already won?

bah, i give it a month or two before the author loses interest (he'll be the last reader to do so). this blog is soon to be gone, forgotten, yes - dead as the cold, rough-hewn stake which pierces my motionless, congealed ventricles.

I wonder if there is such a thing as a zombiephage? In particular, something that would attack and eat a zombies brain.

Oh, and the greatest zombie line ever, instantly recognized by divorced people everywhere:

"If you really loved me, you'd let me eat your braaaaaiiiin!"

The only problem I've run into with my zombies is that I let them unionize. Well, I had to, there's only so long that one can listen to the chant:

What do we want?
BRAINS
When do we want it?
BRAAAAIIINS!

This was a fun find soundofsuburbia. Thanks!

"New Life Ranch"? Is this one of those troubled youth brainwashing centers?
