  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Having picked this book off the shelf, you’re probably asking yourself, “How could there be a neuroscience of zombies?” While yes, zombies do have brains (you have to destroy their brains in order “kill” them, or so the myth goes), we would be hard pressed to make a case that “zombie neuroscience” qualifies as its own field of study. Neuroscience— the study of the brain, particularly its relationship to behavior and cognition—already has its fair share of perhaps silly and fantastical “specialty” subfields; why add to the list? Well, did you know that we neuroscientists have the answer to every thing? Regular readers of the Opinion page of the New York Times or other popular media outlets will already know that neuroscience can explain why you are in love with your iPhone, why lying to your kids about Santa is a neurologically sound form of parenting, and why inducing a coma leads to proof of heaven. You see, by filtering all of human existence through our very muddy lens we can answer all of life’s questions. By our estimates, an fMRI study explaining the meaning of life should be coming out by sometime early 2015 (hint: it involves 42 brain regions). We hate to break it to our colleagues in the fields of philosophy, religion, and physics, but thanks to a few fancy brain imaging machines and a couple of decades of pretty hard think- ing about stuff, we neuroscientists now can understand every- thing, so they’ll probably need to seek employment elsewhere. If neuroscience is the panacea and explanation for everything else, why not the zombie apocalypse? There’s a market for that, right?

Romero, revealing, notably, how they reflect specific social concerns. In order to determine what makes the zombie movie and the figure of the zombie so productive of political readings, this article examines, first, the classic zombie movies influenced by voodoo lore, then Romero’s initial living dead trilogy (1968-1985), and finally some of the most successful films released in the 2000s.

  • Laughing Off a Zombie Apocalypse: the Value of Comedic and Satirical Narratives1
    International Studies Perspectives (2017) 18, 211–224 Laughing off a Zombie Apocalypse: The Value of Comedic and Satirical Narratives1 RODGER A. PAYNE University of Louisville In recent years, many international relations scholars have been discussing films, books, and television programs featuring zombies, largely because such narratives are thought to provide a compelling metaphor for thinking about a diverse array of contemporary threats. These range from relatively traditional threats posed by violent terrorists to nontraditional threats from epidemics or mass migration. However, because zombie narratives are gen- erally apocalyptic, employing them can provide a misleading and dangerous understanding of international security. By contrast, satirical and comedic zombie stories provide interesting alternative narratives that coincide with the emancipatory objectives of critical security studies. Satirical narratives fo- cusing on elites characteristically critique these powerful figures, often re- vealing them to be self-centered buffoons. Indeed, satire and black comedy can be quite subversive, reflecting critical and potentially transformative notions—about threats andotherdimensionsofsecurity politics. Comedies typically center upon ordinary people, emphasize their regular lives, and end happily—aligning with the aspirations of the human security agenda. Keywords: narrative, film, zombies, critical theory, human security In recent years, international relations (IR) scholars have revealed a strong and growing interest in popular books, films, and television programs. Many are study- ing and writing seriously about a diverse oeuvre of words and images, though with a notable tilt toward pop culture works of fantasy and science fiction. Some of the most prominent publications have focused on the Harry Potter series (Nexon and Neumann 2006), The Lord of the Rings trilogy (Ruane and James 2012), Star Trek (Weldes 1999), Battlestar Galactica (Buzan 2010), and Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Rowley and Weldes 2012).

Och 2006 iii “The World Goes One Way and We Go Another”: Movement, Migration and Myths of Irish Cinema Dana C. Och, Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh, 2006 The dissertation considers Irish films through the valence of movement and migration to conceptualize a cinema that can account for how films function locally and transnationally. I consider various forms of migration in films produced in Ireland to interrogate how identity and the nation are presented. Considering forms of migration opens a different approach to the films that enables questioning of the myths of the nation-state within globalized capital and culture. In Ireland, the land has given shape to the physical boundaries of imagined identity; land is understood as a material trace denoting a linear history of invasion, conquest, and ultimately independence – an evolution from colonial oppression to postcolonial identity.

  • Zombies Have to Live Somewhere
    a Zombie Comedy Feature Film by Greg Zekowski © Log Line Infected with a designer Zombie Virus, a suburban husband and his wife must overcome the symptoms, the CIA and the coming Zombie Apocalypse. The wedding vow, “Till death do us part” has new meaning with a zombie spouse in the house. Synopsis When a bump in the night becomes a vicious zombie bite, Bill Sampler finds himself with no pulse and a deep hunger for meat. Loving wife Shelly and her best friend Carrie are horrified when Bill devours a man in “like 10 seconds.” His new fast food diet leaves behind no trace of a victim. While disgusting, the hunger is manageable and lucrative until Bill accidentally infects Carrie. Shelly's brother Charlie concludes the virus is a government conspiracy so together they concoct a crazy plan to protect the family, stop the Men in Black from beheading Bill and save the world from a Zombie Apocalypse. The vow “Till death do us part” has a new meaning with a zombie spouse in the house. Notes from the Director My name is Greg Zekowski and I wrote and directed Zburbs, a 93-minute Zombie Comedy feature film shot in just nine days. I am a huge fan of comedy. I love Mel Brooks, the Marx Brothers, and broad parodies like Airplane and Scream. In my career behind the camera I have worked with many great comic actors and earned membership in both the Director’s Guild of America and the Television Academy. Zburbs is about what might happen to a loving wife in the suburbs when her soul-mate succumbs to an un-deadly virus.
