The Truth About Zombies
My name is Erin and I am not a zombie, though my boyfriend, the gangster, Ryu, and the ghoul, Clément, tried to make one of me. They nearly succeeded, too, but Clément blew it—as he usually does—and although I no longer speak, appear to be totally apathetic, and exhibit other zombie-like behaviors, I was not really “made” in the traditional sense. I still have my will. If you read the official accounts, you’ll find that Erin Orison, the talented and rebellious only daughter of American ambassador,...
Dead Love: Hell, Yeah, ...
Today, a little hellektro or aggrotech and the electro-industrial sound of God Module. Definitely music to zone in and out to … in an angry, pissed-off-at-humans-who-have-messed-things-up way. The band was founded in 1999 and consists of Jasyn Bangert (vocals, synth, programming),...
Dead Love: Thea Munster...
Thea Munster, Boneyard Betty—if she’s a fiend of yours, you are probably also a big fan. She’s gore-geous and committed—as any ghouly girl should be—to grave matters … like the Toronto Zombie Walk. Just trying to keep up with her deliriously dark doings makes my head...
Dead Love: Zombie Bash
Oh, we had a rockin’ time last night at the very first DEAD LOVE party and if that is any indication of times to come, good friends will have my back when I stagger out into the slimelight. It was broad daylight when the party began, so views for days from top-of-the-hill Tiburon...
Dead Love: Blood ‘...
Please think about this the next time zombies attack your car and violently paw at the windows: They are only trying to wash it. Yes, turns out that zombies love slobbering all over your car—in a good way. At least that’s what Toronto zombies proved at the Blood ‘n’...
8. Ghul-ish Thoughts
At his point I think I should tell you a thing or two about ghouls . . . or ghuls, as they are known in some parts of the world. I know about them from my mother’s books—the only part of her sizable estate that my father managed to miss. There were three small books on this particular...
Dead Love: Malibu Zombi...
Even a zombie can find rejuvenation on the beach. I do love Courtney Love, mainly because I love broken things and she is definitely broken. I’ve always liked Hole too. Nirvana? Yes. Kurt Cobain? Yes. And the beach is a much better place to run from the drama than the dark space in...
Dead Love: Pontypool an...
Yes, there really is a Pontypool. It’s an unincorporated village in Ontario, Canada. And, because of the location (so close to a zombie center and all), it has attained screen status in a horror film by the same name: Pontypool. Pontypool is a 2009 Canadian movie about zombies...
