Monster Men Podcast #3 – The Decaying State of Zombies

OK, I ditched the straw hat and Jack and I got down to business talking about our favorite subject : zombies. George Romero completely rewired our brains and we’ve never recovered. So, grab a shotgun, find a safe haven (preferrably in an abandoned mall) and enjoy.

About Hunter Shea

Hunter Shea is the product of a misspent childhood watching scary movies, reading forbidden books and wishing Bigfoot would walk past his house. He doesn’t just write about the paranormal – he actively seeks out the things that scare the hell out of people and experiences them for himself. Hunter’s novels can even be found on display at the International Cryptozoology Museum. His video podcast, Monster Men, is one of the most watched horror podcasts in the world. You’ll also find him every week on the Final Guys podcast, available everywhere. He’s a bestselling author of over 30 books, all of them written with the express desire to quicken heartbeats and make spines tingle. Living with his wonderful family and two cats, he’s happy to be close enough to New York City to gobble down Gray’s Papaya hotdogs when the craving hits.

    Awesome. Any good horror fan thinks about how to reinforce a mall… or most any other places they might be in public 🙂

    I enjoyed the remake of Dawn of the Dead (big Modern Family fan). It was fun, and the bleak ending credits was pretty satisfying, as well. Actually gave me nightmares.

    I would agree that we are becoming a little too inundated with zombie stories, but on a lazy sunday afternoon, I can probably watch almost any zombie movie. Will check out the Brian Keene.

    Although I gotta disagree on 28 Weeks later. More of a 28 Days fan myself.

    Fun podcast.

    The new Dawn of the Dead also stars Medium’s Jake Weber.

    Your parents let you see Dawn of the Dead when you were 10, I’m shocked and stunned.

    Which is more detrimental to a ten year old…a double feature of Dawn of the Dead & The Kentucky Fried Movie or a double feature of The Exorcist & A Clockwork Orange? I can’t even read the book of a Clockwork Orange, I’m so scarred!

    BTW, been enjoying the podcasts. As far as I’m concerned, Dawn of the Dead (the original) set the standard for the zombie genre. Romero set the bar high and few can compare.

      Yikes. Did you really got to a double feature of The Exorcist and A Clockwork Orange? I would have to say that double feature would definitely be more detrimental.

      And while I think there have been some good zombie movies outside of Romero’s sphere of influence, I agree that he pretty much is the master.
