It’s Halloweenie time again and with the return of The Walking Dead and the endless Twilight merchandise, it makes me wonder… are you Team Vampire or Team Zombie?
I would have to say I am Team Zombie, always have been, always will be. I am not easily swayed by the sparkly pretty boys I see on the big screen or the charming, bad boys with a good heart.
I can honestly say that every home I have ever lived in I have figured out what do if the zombie-geddon were to strike. What my exit strategy would be or where the best place to barricade myself/my family from the incoming swarm. (Yes… every place I have ever worked too….)
I am a huge The Walking Dead fan and have met both Robert Kirkman (writer) and Tony Moore (artist) from the original comic book the AMC TV show is based off. (No surprise here – I’m a giant comic geek.) When I heard they were making one of my favorite comics into a TV show, I was a bit disheartened. What I loved best was that I knew there would be no happy ending in the comic… this was a post-apocalyptic book with the best of them.
I felt a bit better when Kirkman said that the show would follow in the same vein as the book, no one was off limits and there would be no miracle happy ending. What I love about The Walking Dead book is that the zombie infestation is just part of the picture. The real focus of the story is how people react in a dire situation. It’s a test of the character’s humanity. Will the situation bring out the best or worst in that person?
Both Vampires and Zombies feature one thing… everlasting life. But to quote the Queen song: Who wants to live forever?
So…. Are you Team Vampire or Team Zombie? :)
Zombies freak me out. I am more of a vampire person I guess, though I have not read nor am I interested in Twilight. I am more of a "Interview With a Vampire" person or even the old Bela Lugosi (sp?) movies.
