Because werewolves, vampires and witches have been over done.

(DH says that it is because it is fun to see what democrats really look like under the makeup.)

It’s a metaphor for conservatives vs. obamavoters.

I was in downtown san francisco this past week. Sprinkled in among the crowds were bums wandering around on the streets. They all had zombie looks in their faces.

I don’t like zombies either. I don’t find them scary...I find them gross.

To me, zombie stuff is like a comedian with one joke.

“I like my monsters scary and predominately unappealing, but there are always exceptions. “

Zombies are zombies, just dead. TWD honors the zombie persona by actually affirming that they are not diseased/infected humans (World War Z, 28 days later etc) but reanimated corpses which is the most accepted theorem. In addition, I prefer my vampire on screen as the 30 Days & Nights’ vampire (bloodthirsty animal type) vs the faggot vampire (Twilight).

It’s part of the reality tv craze. [footnote: 2006 election, 2008 election, 2012 election]

Pop culture may be considered by some as popular, but it contains very little, if any, culture.

Take a stroll through your typical day and have a good look around yourself; it’s not necessary to ask why zombie shows are so popular - the zombies are already here and their Liberal philosophy is taking bites out of you every day of the week.
