May Is Zombie Awareness Month

Never accuse TheEye of not feeding your need for brains. Friends will know that TheEye is a big fan of the zombie movie genre (not just the one in the image here), and so was delighted to discover that:

May is the official Zombie Awareness Month of the Zombie Research Society.

Many films important to the evolution of the modern Zombie are set in the month of May, from the original Night of the Living Dead, 1968, to the well received Dawn of The Dead remake of 2004.

Also, because Spring naturally brings with it a sense of renewal and hopefulness, May is the perfect month to emphasize continued vigilance in the face of the coming Zombie Pandemic

Supporters of Zombie Awareness Month wear a gray ribbon to signify the undead shadows that lurk behind our modern light of day. Please take this small step to acknowledge the coming danger.
