Respawn of the Dead (Blog #14)

Zombies, Zombies and more Zombies.

We all love zombies and their flesh eating faces, even if they probably are missing their jaw. Still.

With this article, we learn the properties and the structure on exactly, why do we love something as simple but as creepy as a monster that will murder and eat us in cold blood. Don't get me wrong, zombies are really, really cool.

Fundamentals of Learning

. "The Walking Dead" have been a worldwide phenomenon since, forever. In multitudes of myth's and stories from cultures all over and stories of the dead coming back to life and common. Oddly in a way, we just learn these stories when we age and grow up, they just, appear in our lives. From horror stories at slumber parties to the movie screen. Thus where the 30's come in and the zombie is brought to the eye of viewers and common folk. Though, when it came to "The Night of the Living Dead" Zombies became an international fear. Soon, more and more zombies and twists to the "kind" came along and it practically became an icon. Weird, but that is how things usually work.

. Often at times, speculations are emerged and created based on movies and even zombie movies, like the idea of that zombies could represent the affect of technology and the non-dependence on human beings, thus, becoming a zombie. Also to go along with these , some say, they use the phone or even computer and don't connect with people face-to-face and it shows that already, it could probably start. It's in motion and we don't even know. (*Twilight Zone Theme*)

. Connected above, most of the time in our lives. We are just thrown into a group or maybe even a horde we don't even know about yet. Based on our workplace, life and government. We are simply just an unwanted number, or also just a blurred being. Much like a zombie, someone who has no individuality.

Weighing My Opinions

. Honestly, I like zombies myself. One of my favorite movies is Shaun of the Dead and I read online stories and they do have zombie connections! Though, when I start to see zom-com romance movies with zombie love. Well, that's going far because, you know, necrophilia.

. Noticing the connections of the government and that technology is also connected with zombies is a pretty liable fact. It makes sense and as well as connecting to that zombie uproar we had a while ago. Supposed zombies in Florida, HA. More like drug addicts.

Thee Question

. To be honest, do you think that society is losing it's mind and even brains towards zombies?
Should we focus on other monsters other than them? (YES A DOUBLE QUESTION)
