Some of you aren’t going to survive the apocalypse. You’ll be dead, dying, infected, boring or a just plain nuisance. This is a fact. If there’s such a thing as a zombie apocalypse, someone is going to have to be the zombie. What better way to practice for your horrible undeath, than with movies, music, booze, games and awesome people?
This Saturday, June 20th, The Undead Report will be representing zombie hunters everywhere at the Horror Society’s Zombie Disco in Chicago at the Viaduct Theater. I’ll have a table setup with random violence, improvised weapon demos, zombie targets and artwork for sale, and whatever else I can think of. Have a suggestion? Leave a comment. This is an 18+ event.
What is a zombie disco? Well, its where zombies go to dance. The FORBIDDEN DANCE. Why has this website been reporting more about more zombie walks and themed parties than actual zombie news? Because the zombie apocalypse has entered the weltgeist. Everyone’s thinking about it. Scared. Running. Probably going to die. Have some fun in the meantime.

They came last year. I tried to stop them. I, well, I failed.
Now they’re back.
Zombies are once again marching in Millenium Park. This time, it coincides with the Blues Festival, so it should certainly be interesting. Hopefully the only things being beaten by the cops will be boxes of donuts. I will be out of state on a recon mission. Think about it: if you knew zombies were coming, would you want to head right into the center of the mob? Sure, if you think you’re super awesome Mr. Headshot, but the best way to avoid becoming one is to avoid them altogether.
Last year, I found three or four fellow zombie killers. I hope more of you show up this year! Rememebr, if you’re coming with Nerf guns, keep them yellow or orange tape the tips. CPD is quite trigger happy. Represent zombie hunters world wide and send in your photos to sam at undead report dot com!
Zombie walks are a good theatrical produciton that serve well for training. It may even be advisable to act like a cowboy and steer the masses clear of the public.

The event is produced in part by Chicago Zombie. More information is available at their website, Chicago Zombie.

Zombies aren’t necessarily undead, reanimated ghouls. Research at The Undead Report indicates zombies can be infected, crazed, uncontrollable rabid humans. You want to be sure one of them is dead? Aim for the head. Don’t stand there and let them bite you, infectious or not!
Joseph Lancellotti, a 67 year old greater New Orleans man was gardening at his home when a crazed man gibbering in Spanish ran up to him, hitting him in the head. During Lancellotti’s valiant struggle using a rake for defense, the strange man bit his arm and swallowed the flesh.
Bit his arm, and swallowed the flesh.

Last year, they came for beer. This year is no different.
Watch out Andersonville, next weekend is going to be full of beer/brain hungry undead ghouls on the prowl. The Chicago Zombie Pub Crawl is produced by by improv group pH Productions. Almost 400 zombies attended the first crawl, wandering the streets of Andersonville into Simon’s, Charlie’s Ale House and Hamburger Mary’s. The 2009 edition promises to be even bigger and better and hopes for even more undead fun. For the unfamiliar, a zombie walk is a group of people usually organized by email or a website who dress like zombies and lumber through town, usually just for fun. Some zombie walks start or finish at cemeteries, and others at pubs.
