"Zombie pirate death polka." That's how the music of the Widow's Bane was first described to me. Imagine if Tom Waitts, Rasputina, and a rabid, sea-faring, musically talented mongrel dog from Appalachia had an undead love child… that would be the Widow's Bane.

It was a dark and clear night, yet stormy in that unsettled sort of way where you know in your brain — your very tasty brain — that evil is lurking in the shadows because, after all, it's hard to effectively lurk in the harsh glare of, say, the post office or Costco or realit …

Zombieland is a Splatterific Romp With Feelings

Once a person begins talking about zombie movies, the first film that comes to most individuals minds is Night of the Living Dead or even 28 Days Later. Perhaps even Planet Terror or Shaun of The Dead. Now it will be Zombieland that first comes to mind.

The news that Robert Kirkman's zombie comic The Walking Dead was headed to television via Mad Men's cable home AMC, as opposed to movies, surprised many... but not Kirkman. As far as he's concerned, a movie would've missed the point.
