Woody Harrelson is standing up to the plague of zombies.

@ Church – I don’t think you can tag Kara as a zombie because she discovered and destroyed her own rotting corpse but was still up and around with no signs of decay. So while definately back from the dead somehow, I don’t think it qualifies as zombie-dom.

I think perhaps it’s the nerds’ fault that the killer nerd meme has gone so far. The story lends itself to use as a weapon against the alpha males who torment them. “Don’t mess with the nerds too much, or they’ll go all Columbine on you” has become the second-hand savior of many a 110-pound (or 400-pound) wise-ass. To the high school quarterback, a bad-tempered Aspergertard can look just like a sociopath.

Wouldn’t Kara be, technically, a zombie?

I think the zombie trend started with Shaun of the Dead, and the zombie hordes were unleashed from there. Also, The Walking Dead graphic novels are must reads for the zombie enthusiast.

Oh, and Battlestar Galactica didn’t have any zombies but it was still really good.

Wow, Columbine happened only five years before the new BSG?
