I don’t get the zombie thing. No basis in fact like most scifi

I do enjoy zambie comedies. ‘Sean of the Dead’ and ‘Zambiand’ are great

Check out Juan of the Dead. It's a Cuban zomidy.

On a serious note the whole dead coming to life thing is actually biblical. When Yeshua returns "We all will be changed" not just the righteous, ALL. It's gonna be some strange times a coming.

I’m with you on not getting the zombie craze of the last several years. Serpent and the Rainbow was the only ‘zombie’ film I remember liking, and that was due to its plausibility. The genre seems silly to me.

They should merge the Marvel shows with the Vampire franchise.

zombie story’s generally are not science fiction. Zombie story’s are pure fantasy. science fiction is anything based on science or where science will take us in the future.

fantasy is when you don’t want an explanation to how come something is happening. Almost all Zombie stories fall apart when the author tries’ to explain it in ways based on real world science.

One of the biggest regret of the writers for the show was having the survivors of the walking dead encounter one of the scientists looking for a cure in season one of the walking dead. The reason the writers regret the encounter is that the writer tried to explain the dead walking with science and the answer was not satisfactory.
