TZC Track: The Boy

Happy 2011 to all of you out there! Glad you all made it to the final year before the apocalypse!

This year, we thought we'd start off nice and easy by presenting you one of the finer gems in our undead collective, lovely diva Jenny Deathcry. We'd quote some Shakespeare to emphasize how proud we are to have her in our midst... But we don't know any, except: "there's something rotten in the state of Denmark" - but that goes without saying.

This song - The Boy -, set in jazzy surroundings, is about the things love can do to you. Beautifully sung by our undead diva, accompanied by the moody undertones of Doctor Bass on.. erm... bass, obviously. Add a pinch of Limbstitcher Gorehands, plucking the strings, and we have ourselves a tune that will stay with you the remainder of your undead life.

The Zombie Cookbook is proud to present to you: The Boy.

Fleshy Friday Movie Review: Zombie Transfusion

Every week the Zombie Cookbook shows you why the world would be a better place if it had more zombies in it. This week however, we showcase another review by Lucio Ruggero, who explores some of the finer examples of study material on life after the zombie-apocalypse.

This week Lucio reviews Zombie Transfusion aka Automaton Transfusion (USA, 2006) and he's none to excited about it... Read on:

This movie is no highlight in cinematic history. I did have some enjoyable moments with it however.

To start with: the plot is extremely thin to the point of non-existence and the characters are completely uninteresting. The gore makes up for this quite well though.

The story: The military is secretly testing a formula that brings the dead back to life, so they can be used as cannon fodder instead of the living. The setting: a small American town, with nice people and a high school whose students we follow as the events unfold.

Infection spreads, people get bitten, infection spreads more, teenagers turn into zombies at a party as the our heroes try their best to escape, although they're not very good at it.

That's about all I can say. It was kind of depressing to see “to be continued” displayed on the screen at the end. A sequel certainly isn't anything to look forward to.

There was a scene I really liked though: a pregnant couple are having a drink at the party. A zombie walks in. He immediately pulls the fetus from the girl's womb and starts devouring it, leaving onlookers to watch the whole thing in shock.

That's all for now, folks! If you have any recommendations for your zombie brethren that are worth the time, please let us know in the comments...

Yours sincerely,

Lucio Ruggoro

Emergency broadcast: Tuning into the Apocalypse

A hearty welcome to all our brethren here. Did you know that the Zombie Cookbook actually makes music as well? And that you can contribute to our tracks if you want?

And that (cause we're cool like that) we're going to share that very same music on a (we hope) regular basis with you? Expect more where this came from, and think Zombie Apocalyptic thoughts while jamming to our tracks, please.

Lets kickstart the apocalypse with an oldie but goodie: "The Emergency Broadcast".
