The time has come! The stars are aligned! The winners for the Eric S. Brown and David Dunwoody Zombie Flash Fiction Contest are announced, and all three are read on the podcast. I am honored to welcome guest readers James Durham and James Melzer! Thank you to everyone who entered their zombie flash fiction. Background music during the readings is from Zombie Influx from Buzzworks.
This week, I review Zombies of Mass Destruction (2009). I also review the more obscure Karloff zombie movie The Ghoul (1933) — and so does Misfitboy. Brian in Colorado talks about his trip to a Renaissance Festival in this week’s review of beers.
My original song is another one of the songs I’ve written about Zombi 2. It’s from the perspective of the doctor’s wife, titled “What Am I Gonna Do Now.”
Other things I talk about . . .
- The Walking Dead TV show news from Ain’t It Cool News
- The Walking Dead contest, motion comic, and set visit with Robert Kirkman
- The Walking Dead Comicon poster (thanks to Ertrov)
- “Another worker plunges to his death at iPhone manufacturer Foxconn”
- “Woman thought she had powers: murder trial”
- “Man claims to see ‘demons,’ strangles cat and beats up girlfriend”
Other music: Prison | Haggis Rising

great episode man! my 2 yr old loved “what am i gonna do now”? he was thrashin’ all over the living room. great tune man. spot on in the reviews this week, i had the same prob. with the ghoul. i had 2 find a diff. copy but just to give you a headsup there are alot of plot holes in the film itself but it was a fun movie anyway! also congrats to the winners of the zombie flash fiction contest, very cool stories!

Weird, I checked my gmail sent box and none of the entries I sent were ever read. I’m sure I wouldn’t have won anyway, but I’m curious how that happened. I sent ’em to the right address.
Anyhoo, congrats to the winners. This really was a fun little contest and I hope it got more people into writing. Once again, great show Corey, keep it up!
Victor: I got all three of them. Your email’s probably telling you that because all my email is forwarded to my gmail account.
Thanks for entering your stories! And also thanks for listening.
Oh thanks for letting me know, man. It would have been a fun writing exorcise even if they weren’t read…writing’s never in vain, but it’s good to know that they got where they were supposed to go.
Victor-I think the answer has been in front of you the whole time: your e-mail account is kind of a dick, and it enjoys fu**ing with you. You should sent it lots of Nigerian spam in retaliation.
Alas, I am a loser. Congrats to the winners though!!!
we may have lost but at least we did it, it shows what we can do if we put our minds to it.all i know is win or loose i had fun doing it. it felt good typing that last period, ya know?
so cool to see THE ITALIAN ZOMBIE MOVIE logo on the blogpage man! if anyone has not seen them yet, your missing out on a fun ride!
Haha, I was SO slow putting it up there. It should’ve been up weeks ago.
@Jeff: Is that humor? I Made a simple comment and kindly received an informative answer. I made it a point to insist that my entries were inferior to the winners…they absolutely were. I didn’t suggest any kind of a scam, I just wanted to at least see if that my effort was part of the contest. Corey was cool enough to express than it was.
