Lady Gaga and Marilyn Manson

2009-12-14T06:32:00.000-08:00

I'm sure I'm not the only one that's noticed how many similarities there are between Pop Icon Lady Gaga and Shock Rocker Marilyn Manson.Aside from their clothing choices (and believe me they have a lot more outfits in common than just this one) and love of ridiculously high platforms and heels they have had both their sexuality and gender brought into question in the tabloids (Manson's true

Book review: Living With The Dead - Kelley Armstrong

2009-11-14T11:19:00.000-08:00

Firstly I want to thank the people of Little Brown and Orbit publishing for granting me a review copy of the following book.Living with the dead is a book that reminds me of Laurell K Hamilton's Anita Blake vampire Hunter Series but with more realistic characters. When I say realistic I am comparing Armstrong's characters to Anita Blake - Blake is the overly brave main character in the Anita

Review: Free Zombie Music Graphic Novel - Zombies Can't Dance

2009-11-05T04:56:00.000-08:00

For the first time you can experience a graphic novel through the medium of music! And its free and fully downloadable too!And this isn't just any story either - its a zombie apocalypse. Unlike the usual zombie apocalypse idea Zombies Can't Dance introduced zombie-killing robots and more. Each chapter is sung in a different musical style, and the lyrics tell the story of the apocalypse, in an

Modern Warfare 2 Special Operations Mission

2009-11-03T10:19:00.000-08:00

With the release date (November 10th) for Modern Warfare 2 slowly drawing nearer, everyone wants to know about the new Special Operations Mission mode and what it has to offer.Spec ops is essentially an arcade mode, with very little emphasis being placed on cut-scenes or storyline. The game's designers claim that the bonus level from Call Of Duty 4; Mile High Club was their main inspiration, then

Book Review: New Moon - Stephanie Meyer

2009-11-02T09:51:00.000-08:00

A couple of months ago my teenage cousin forced the first of the Twilight series book onto me. I had previously had no interest in the Twilight series - books or movies; it all seemed a little too young for me.This week after constantly being bombarded by news, banners and other advertisements for New Moon I decided to read the book to see if the hype was actually earned.The twilight series, for

Cirque Du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant: An Unhappy Review

2009-10-29T06:34:00.000-07:00

I saw the Vampire's Assistant last night for the first time. The only reason I left it until this morning to write my review of it is because I was so upset after seeing it that I wanted to let myself ooff overnight. Unfortunately I am still pissed off about what I saw.The movie started out really well, giving the illusion that it was going to follow the original storyline in a decent manner,

Darren Shan: The Vampire's Assistant (#2 In The Darren Shan Saga)

2009-10-21T09:36:00.001-07:00

I picked The Vampire's Assistant to review for two reasons; firstly it's one of my favourite of all of the Darren Shan series, and secondly the majority of the upcoming Darren Shan movie is based on this book so I felt it made for a fitting review.When I first started reading the Darren Shan series all those years ago I thoroughly enjoyed it, but the storyline from The Vampire's Assistant is one

5 Of The Best Vampire Books

2009-10-17T10:02:00.000-07:00

5. Hellsing Volume 1 - Kouta HiranoEven though Hellsing is a graphic novel I'm still putting it in my Top 5 due to its sheer genius in terms of plot line. The Hellsing series is loosely based around the original Dracula by Bram Stoker. It makes a lot of references to Stoker's novel but also has a modern twist on it. The character's are all part of the Hellsing Organisation which tracks down

Laurell K Hamilton: Guilty Pleasures Review

2009-10-16T11:33:00.000-07:00

I have to admit, I was somewhat skeptical all those months ago as I stood in my local comic book store and the clerk (a friend of mine) forced the first book of the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter Series into my hands. He claimed the series was 'great' especially the first book. "Once you read it you'll just have to read the rest of 'em". (Thinking back on it I suspect he was hoping my future

Darren Shan Movie Trailer

2009-10-14T13:46:00.000-07:00

Over six years ago I won a competition. The answer to it was simple; who wrote Dracula? (that's Bram Stoker, shame on you if you didn't already know that). The prize for said competition was the Darren Shan Saga (only about six or seven of the books had been written at the time). When I received the books I hadn't ever heard of them before, but I liked the idea of reading a series without getting

I'm Thinking Of Branching Out... (Oh, And Modern Warefare 2)

2009-10-13T11:52:00.000-07:00

As much as I love zombies I have other interests too. I'm thinking of generalizing this blog a bit more. And no I'm not doing it for money - I don't think I'll ever make money from this (and I'm not trying to). The reason I'm thinking about this is so I will have more topics that I can post about, thus more regular posting.I know I have a few regular readers out there and I don't know if this

My Zombie Contingency Plan

2009-09-29T15:15:00.000-07:00

So I've been reading through a number of blogs and websites offering various zombie contingency plans.Shamefully (because I am so obsessed with zombies) I do not have a definite contingency plan of my own. This is due to the simple fact that each time I plan one I find serious flaws that will ultimately lead to my death, and, being a perfectionist, I have to decide on an almost flawless plan.My

Call Of Duty 5: World At War Der Reise Zombie Map Survival Guide (Map Pack 3)

2009-09-17T15:25:00.000-07:00

Yes I've mentioned this particular CoD zombie map before (I think). I nearly had kittens when it was first released because I was so excited. I've been playing it for long enough to develop a really good survival strategy with my friends. And let me tell you there is nothing more rewarding than killing hoards of mindless decomposing zombies with your friends.Unfortunately I can't post the guide

De-Animator Zombie Flash Game

2009-09-03T09:25:00.000-07:00

De-animator is a very basic flash game, but it is also really addictive. The figures in the game are depicted as silhouettes. You play an elderly looking old guy (or it could be a weird looking old lady). Your only weapon is a gun. Click on the zombies to shoot them until you have to reload. Reloading leaves you open to zombies so make sure to de-animate the zombies closest to you first.The

Zombies Of The Future

2009-08-21T13:33:00.000-07:00

I think the most likely way that humans will become zombies is through the evolution of the toxoplasma gondii parasite.The toxoplasma gondii parasite live an breeds in the intestine of the common cat. When a rat comes into contact with infected cats' feces it too becomes infected. Amazingly, the infection reaches the rat's brain and its normal behaviours is altered.The rat will completely ignore

Swine Flu = Fast Moving Zombies

2009-08-19T12:28:00.000-07:00

In case anyone is wondering, the reason I haven't posted anything in the last few days is because I am sick. At first I did freak out and jump to the conclusion that it was swine flu, but apparently it isn't. Anyway thinking about the whole topic of swine flu leads me into thinking about the swine flu zombie hoax that recently infected the Internet.The 'new strain' of the virus plaguing the

The current version of the free MMORPG entitled 'Dead Frontier' is, at present, a beta version.

How Voodoo Zombies Are Made

2009-08-10T06:17:00.000-07:00

A 'bokur' is a sorcerer in the Voodoo religion, who is believed to be blessed with the power to perform black magic. Powders used by the sorcerers give them power over their victims, with one of these being the power to create zombies.In Haiti, the punishment of zombification is only reserved for those who commit really serious crimes.'Coupre Powdre' is the name giving to the powder that the
