Zombanimals


So last night's post about the zombie sheep in Black Sheep got me thinking about zombie animals, in general. Robert Kirkwood, creator and executive producer of "The Walking Dead" said on last week's "Talking Dead" that in his stories, zombieism was non-transmugenic or not shared between species. But a quick Google image search brought up loads of zombie animal images and I thought I'd share some of them with you, here.
I first saw the "Zomboodle" on your right in a post shared by a friend on Facebook. I'm always against dressing up pets (dogs, cats, hamsters or birds), but shaving and dying them? That's another story. How badass would you look walking down the street with this dog as you Trick or Treated on Halloween? Below are a few more images I found, most of them Photoshopped, though a few are drawings and/or paintings. 


This Zomboxer looks a little sad, doesn't he?










This zombie kitty appears to have been created by the same artist, no?





























This is a real dog, believe it or not. A blind Chinese Crested, this particular pup (now actually deceased, I believe) was a winner of the annual "Ugly Dog Contest." Poor thing...























This manipulated meerkat image would make the most avid Animal Planet fan run screaming...






















Not so cute now, are you zombie koala?













"...with great big, gnarly teeth!" Zombunny will take you down!














This is how the Chinese are going to take over the world; with rare, adorable zombie pandas!










Stay tuned for a bonus post!

More (very) anon.

Funny Strange or Funny Ha-Ha?

That's not tiger's blood.

While not included in the list of sites I visit regularly, I do love the occasional trip to Worth1000.com, the Photoshop site that offers tips and provides glimpses into what the best Photoshop users have to offer. They often sponsor hilarious contests and many of the photos in tonight's post are from those contests.

As my buddy Pax Romano recently lamented, zombies are literally everywhere these days. Pax thinks the proliferation of zombies lessens their impact as a horror sub-genre. I
 would politely like to disagree. Yes, there is tons of silly zombie stuff out there but there are still plenty of zombie-related things that are effectively terrifying. Just take a look at last night's season premiere of "The Walking Dead." I haven't been so anxious since Romero's original Dawn of the Dead as I was during the "herd" scene. But that doesn't mean we can't have fun with zombies. And that's what tonight's post is all about. Fun. And what could be more fun than celebs as zombies? Many of the images presented below are hilarious. Some are disturbing. And even more are both. I'll leave it up to you to decide:

Can zombies be sexy?







Brad is currently shooting the film adaptation of Max Brooks' novel World War Z. Personally, I'm confused by this, as Brook's novel had no through-line to connect each chapter.






















 
Brad's "Wife" seems well-suited to the genre, doesn't she?












Angelina must be zombified, taking care of all those kids, don't you think?











"No! Not Clay! he can't be ga...err, um... a zombie!"






Clay Aiken always seemed to be a zombie to me, even after he finally came out. Ick!

























Gaga puts the 'gag' in Gaga







As much as I've come to love her, Lady Gaga will never be as cool as George Romero or Tom Savini.












Zombie Douchebag






I'm sorry, but even zombification can't make a douchebag like Eminem cool.














What Are You Waiting For?












She may not be a "Holla Back Girl" (whatever the f*ck that is), but Gwen Stephani makes for one Hella zombie.

















Attend the Tale of a Miscast Actor













I understand Depp's appeal as an actor in some roles, but I don't get him as a sex symbol. Maybe this picture explains why.





















Love Me











He's never looked better.








"I just wanna have lunch!"









Goldie is like 400 years old now, right?
























"Melissa! Brains! Now!"






Oh, wait. Joan Rivers is still alive.


Or is she....?












No wonder Rose let him go...









His heart will go on?














Abandon Hope...









I imagine the ravages of the office will leave Mr. Obama looking very much like this once his terms are over.



















You Know I'm No Good










Too soon?















 Even cartoon characters aren't immune to the Zombie Plague...

Brain patties, anyone?









He lives in a cemetery under the sea...












Mickey! Noooooooo!





The Scariest Place on Earth?










Oh, bother!












That's not honey!























This one's for D









Of course, there's always the celebrity zombie tattoo...






















Okay. You may be asking what planted the seeds for this Celebrity Zombie post. Well, I'll tell you. The sweet, smart and very funny daughter of one Uncle P's dearest and oldest friends posted the following video on my facebook wall:



Does Caitlin know her Uncle P, or what?

The Weirdest Thing You'll See This Week


Okay - I know there's some weird-ass crap out there in the cyberverse, but I stumbled upon this site a few weeks ago and I just can't quite wrap my head around it. Boytaur.net is a site where people take hot guys and photoshop them into centaurs. Seriously. Just look at this picture above.

I'm sorry, but I just don't get it. I suppose there's the whole fantasy geek angle. And the guys they use are hot enough. But seriously... is anyone actually getting off on this stuff?
I suppose there are all sorts of weird scenes and fetishes out there. And the Internet seems to be the place to find them. And before you start calling me a prude or something in the comments, you have to admit, this is just weird.
I'll be back with my review of Friday the 13th tomorrow. Hope you all had a great Valentine's Day and for those of you off tomorrow, have a great President's Day.
