Zombies on a train.
"Passengers on a German train mistook a Halloween reveller dressed up as a gore-covered zombie for a murder victim and called the police.

Zombie quickies!
- Three cheers for the return of the October Zombie-Thon! (I realize I'm late to the party, but start here with Day 1: Dead & Deader.)
"One year ago, I was just a guy with a dream— to spend the month of October introducing the readers of 411 to some of the lesser-known zombie movies out there. 31 days later, my dream was an accomplished reality and, as a result, my brain was pretty much mush.
And yet here I am again, one year later, ready to put my mind through the same savage assault… ahhh, who am I kidding. Of course I was gonna do it again. Because as mind-numbing as this can sometimes seem, I do love me my zombies." Head up to Maine for leaf-peeping and braaains: Biddeford-based zombie film "2" premieres at City Theater on Saturday, October 27. Zombie yoga?
"The R.S.V.P. responses from the yoga blogs were like: 'I love yoga and I love zombie movies. I've been waiting for this!' It was the chocolate and the peanut butter thing for all these people."

How Stuff Works: Zombies!

Zombie quickies!
- I love The Onion: Study Reveals Pittsburgh Unprepared For Full-Scale Zombie Attack. (Amusingly, I had actually added "prepare for zombie attack" to Chris's to-do list about half an hour ago.)
- Dawn of the Dead reenacted by yarn dolls
- Toronto Zombie Walk
- Two different t-shirts from Threadless.com

Mmmm… zombie cake. The thorax cake is even more outrageous:
"At this point, I took a break from the cakes in order to assemble the white chocolate rib cage in which all the organs were to be placed."
(She's like a zombie Martha Stewart! I already feel that my next Hallowe'en party will be woefully inadequate.)

This guy is great. But his zombie sock puppet is absolutely brilliant!
p.s. Here's a better shot of the sock puppet. And another.
