Harcos Laboratories, the makers of such delicacies as zombie blood and zombie jerky (scroll down for pictures) are having a contest for four packs of zombie blood and an awesome messenger bag.
If you win, at least tell us about the awesome things you are toting around in the messenger bag...

For those of you Resident Evil fans, there are a couple new trailers over on IMDB. From what I've seen it promises to deliver the same action that has made the series so popular, and on top of that, Afterlife is going to follow the current trend of putting everything in 3-D. We can only hope that they make good use of 3-D, unlike some other movies that have come out recently that were definitely not worth the extra $5 for a pair of crappy glasses.
You can view the trailers here and here.
Zombieland gave us some rules for zombie survival, the first one being doing cardio so you can outrun zombies. Why stop there? People in Chicago have been thinking about that and have started classes for people who want to be in perfect shape for zombie survival! They call themselves ZombieFit with a tag-line, "Fitness to survive the Apocalypse" with detailed fitness journals dating back to September of 2009. They even have online tutorials of how to do survival enhancing workouts, including jumping pull-ups. If you are in the area, you should probably check it out. If not, it makes for an interesting read, and following their ideas and plans won't hurt you when time comes to run, and run fast!

Mystery Science Theater 3000 is always fun, but when it is centering a zombie movie, we like it even better. They cover 1986's Zombie Nightmare, about a teen who is murdered and brought back as a zombie by voodoo to take care of his murderers. I know what you did last summer while you were a zombie... no wait...
The best part is that Adam West and Tia Carrere (Wayne's World) are badly acting their way through this movie. It also features artists like Motorhead... What else do you need? It is currently featured on Netflix, so it is very easy to acquire. Seriously, go watch it now.
