Alright, those wanting to get educated, check it out, I have created many "hot words" within the blog, these "hot words" are links, click on them and they will open another page, outside of the blog and tell you more about that particular word. Some words will take you to wikipedia, some take you to that companies website, if it is a product that is being mentioned you can click the word and you will find yourself able to purchase that product within minutes! Pretty cool huh? Yeah, yeah enough instructions, go on, start learning about Zombies why don't you.

 Background Info


Everywhere you look these days you will see something about Zombies! They are making movies about Zombies, TV Shows about Zombies, writers are writing books about Zombies, while illustrators are drawing up comic books about Zombies. Even Corporate America has the Zombie craze! Many big businesses, manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors are aligning their products, services, and advertisements so that it has something to do with Zombies.  Now, for people that have been avid Zombie fans since the days of Resident Evil (the first Resident Evil not the 5th or 6th film that is now in 3D at the movie theater), Zombies are nothing new, in fact our Zombie craze has been going on for 10+ years.....maybe longer! Resident Evil is an excellent series of films that best describes what will happen to America and other parts of the world as the Zombie virus continues to spread. This is the part where I ask, if you have not seen any of the Resident Evil films, where is this rock that you have been living under located and what cool things did you guys do there for fun the last several years?? So, with that question asked, if you have not seen any of the Resident Evil films or played any of the video games, do yourself a favor - educate yourself. Go out today, Now, as soon as your done reading this article and buy Resident Evil. The original film was released in 2002 and followed up in 2004 by Resident Evil: Apocalypse, which was then followed by in 2007 by Resident Evil: Extinction, which was of course followed by Resident Evil: Afterlife in 2010, and the newest film which is about to be released this year is Resident Evil: Retribution. Wow, a mouthful! I will warn you with out giving any spoilers, the first film was a little slow and a little cheesy, but its budget was ridiculously low as it was a movie being made after a video game. Most movies made from video games are complete flops and would never have a sequel, if they do have one, it wouldn't be one worthy of release in theaters, it would go straight to DVD.  Here is what I can say about Resident Evil:

First, and foremost, Milla Jovovich, who stars as Alice (main character, that the movie follows) in all of the Resident Evil films is one hot, zombie-ass kicking, heroine! So, if you don't care for Zombies, at least see the films to see this sexy babe blow some zombie's heads off with a pair of Uzi sub-machine guns! The only word that describes the actions she takes is "badass"!

Secondly, the story of Resident Evil is loosely based off a true-story. Now, I use the word loosely because somethings have been extremely exaggerated and all names, including the corporation and it's employees have been changed.

Lastly, as the series progresses the story only gets better, some really well known actors are introduced, and you will soon realize how much more realistic it is getting....as a matter of fact you will probably recall hearing some of the stories mentioned within the movie on the news not that long ago!

Some actors you can expect to see in the Resident Evil series:

What is the Zombie Virus?

**Warning - What you are about to read can be graphic in nature and is recommended for a mature audience only. However, it is vital to know what you will be going up against in the case of a Zombie epidemic. Children should be equally educated on the topic as a means of survival.**
Good question. Before I tell you what it exactly is, I'm going to tell you where you can learn more about it. Besides the obvious source, Resident Evil, you could look up AMC's The Walking Dead, an excellent TV Show based upon a post-Zombie Apocalyptic United States, where only a handful of people scattered across the states has survived and have not been bitten....yet! The show follows a group of these survivors as they journey across the US looking for other survivors and a place to live out their remaining days without having to battle Zombies every waking second of each day. The Walking Dead, although based upon the same idea as Resident Evil, takes a slightly different approach to the Zombie virus and is also loosely based upon actual events. 

I have to take a time-out here. FYI - I do not have Dish Network, I subscribe to Comcast's Xfinity service. My parents have Dish but not for political reasons. I looked at getting Dish before I got Comcast but I wanted a service provider that could give me Internet, TV, Phone, Home Automation, and Home Alarm in one. Now, I don't utilize all of the services Comcast has to offer but I will at some point in my life. I like to stay with a company once I subscribe to their services, my cellular service is through AT&T and before they were bought by AT&T it was Cingular. I have been a loyal customer as they say for 9 years now. I feel you get treated a different way when a service rep of the company knows this. Anyways, I have strayed way off topic here, back to the Dish Network ordeal which is sort of off the topic of Zombies and has more of a political theme than anything but it is vital information that you NEED to know. I inform everyone I meet of the following story, and you should as well. So, If you have Dish Network and did not know this, they have dropped AMC from their lineup, only after moving it to channel 9345 without notice to their customers. Dish, a subsidiary of our primarily democratic government, was angry that The Walking Dead had been renewed for a third season, due to the nature of the subject of The Walking Dead, Dish was instructed by the President to remove AMC from their lineup. This is a coverup and another example of how the government attempts to control our lives! Don't believe me, read this excerpt from President Barack Obama's Press Conference in regards to Dish Network cancelling AMC from it's lineup -
"I am proud to announce today, that with recommendation from myself and my advisors Dish Network has agreed to drop AMC Networks from its current channel lineup. AMC has continued to wrong the American people by airing TV programs that are based entirely on lies. We saw this with the show Breaking Bad, where AMC taught American children how to create methamphetamine in their own homes using lab equipment that can be taken from any elementary school. AMC showed a complete disregard for human life when they renewed the show for another season, time and time again. AMC is responsible for the Methamphetamine Epidemic that plagues our country and continues to claim the lives of so many innocent Americans. We saw AMC attempt to brainwash Americans again with the show Mad Men that was renewed for a 6th Season despite Senate recommendations that it be cancelled entirely and no re-runs ever aired again. AMC ignored the United States Congress and aired this entirely fictional show depicting extreme sexual content while subliminally conveying their, Pro-Cigarette Smoking campaign, funded by Big Tobacco Companies, to our children. Again, research shows a direct correlation between AMC and the increase in youth tobacco use in the United States because of this TV show and its funding from companies like, Phillip Morris, RJ Reynolds, and American Tobacco. We saw AMC exploit my people - the African Americans, the Chinese and the American Indians in its new show, Hell on Wheels. It is this show that depicts the supremacy of the white-man and how he forced African American and Chinese slaves to build his railroad at gunpoint, while murdering American Natives so that his railroad could route through their lands! AMC then launched a show, The Walking Dead, in which it showed our Government, my Government, failing to stop the spread of a man-made virus created by the CDC. The Walking Dead's lies and anti-governement propaganda was the breaking point for myself and Dish Network. When AMC decided to renew The Walking Dead for a third season I asked Congress to pass legislation penalizing Dish if they did not cut the network from it's channel lineup. We did this to protect our country, its citizens, and our children from being exposed to any more of AMC's wrongdoings." - President Barack Obama, July 1st, 2012, 09:31:27 EST
Okay, so now that's been explained lets get back on topic. A book that everyone should read to learn more about the deadly Zombie virus is "The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead" written by Max Brooks (actor Mel Brooks' brother). The book can be found in the non-fiction section at any reputable book seller. I recommend Amazon.com for the purchasing of books.

Now that you are armed with the resources to learn more about the Zombie virus, I will begin to educate you on what exactly the Zombie virus is. After years of researching into the subject and reviewing many sources, what I am about to present to you is a consolidated knowledge of the Zombie virus. The Zombie virus, also referred to as the T-Virus by some sources, is known to be a man-made virus. Man-made by whom, I do not know, you will have to figure that out for yourself by doing your own research, but it is believed that either the CDC (Center for Disease Control) itself created the virus or a privately held corporation with Government funding created the virus. Which ever may be true, we do know that the virus does in fact exists and is safely locked away (for now) at the CDC's facility in California. It is at this facility that living and dead strains of every disease, virus, and bacteria known to man (some naturally occurring and some man-made) are held under strict quarantine procedures. People often ask, what is the reason for holding the Bubonic Plague that killed more than half the population of England a little more than a century ago? What if terrorist broke into this facility and stole this viruses and bacterias to use as weaponry? These concerns should be a concern of everyone of Earth's citizens, for we are not the only country in the world that practices this procedure (collecting viruses) as we are not the only country in the world that employs scientists whose sole job is to create the most deadly virus 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Viral warfare is possible and probably more likely that nuclear warfare will ever be. After all, somebody has to have an antibiotic or an antidote for these bad germs, there is no coming back after being Nuked! Research shows that the T-Virus does not kill you and bring you back from the dead all mutilated to feed on flesh, as it is common sense that it's not possible to bring someone back from the dead...yet. What the T-Virus does do though, is start to destroy it's host's cellular structure while keeping vital organs intact so that the host can live, this causes discoloration of the skin (hence the grey and leathery skin appearance of zombies). The T-Virus does cause it's host to crave living tissue and flesh, blood and organs for sustenance, therefore causing the infected to feast upon the living. The T-Virus causes insomnia in most of the hosts due to the elevated body temperature, cellular decay, and blood-borne pathogens transmitted when the host feeds on live flesh from another human being. It is speculated that this is the reason Zombie's move slowly, afterall, if you hadn't slept in weeks and your entire cellular make up was breaking down, you probably wouldn't move very fast either!

Currently there is no means of treating or curing those infected with the Zombie virus, and the only known way of eliminating the infected (preventing them from continuing to feed) is to destroy the brain's communication with the rest of the body, either by removing the infected's head from the rest of the body or scrambling brain matter until it can not function any more with bullets, ice picks, and screwdrivers or blunt objects like a baseball bat, crowbar, or by curb stomping the infected.
