World War Z... Trailer and New Behind-the-scenes Video of Zombie Horde

UPDATE (Check out an awesome behind-the-scenes shot from the film (at the end of this article)).

The much anticipated "World War Z". due out next year (2012), and starring Brad Pitt, Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad), has spawned dozens of fan-made trailers.  A lot of negative reports have been surfacing on and off the shoot, indicating the producers, director, writer were incapable of effectively capture the true nature of the book, and have opted instead for a standard zombie flick.

Zombies vs. Humans


Zombie-themed movies, TV shows and now competitions between students have launched the undead into mainstream popularity—but some political scientists and policy makers have looked into the pop-culture epidemic with intrigue.
Daniel Drezner, political science professor from the University of Chicago and columnist of Foreign Policy, published Theories of International Politics and Zombies in light of the craze, which is not just a contemporary popular trend, but one that dates back to biblical times.

Awesome Zombie Starburst Ad

There's something inherently funny about a zombie riding a city bus. For starters, it's a slowly dying mode of public transportation. Plus, there's a whole lot to like about this particular harried commuter zombie. The reanimated creature is up early and seems to be a good ghoul: he's got the tie loosened underneath his rubble-covered suit, and he's trying to read The Wall Street Journal with his hideously scary white button eyes.

"Patient Zero" Needs your Help!


Let me lay it down for you right now. The economy is going to hell in a hand basket... no good reason to throw your hard earned cash into the huge smoldering blaze that is the stock market.

That being said-- here is a wonderful and happy place to put your cash.
