Pretty awesome. Love the way the score drops off at times. Hate to be picky, but it's a big fail to make us think no one noticed the baby strapped to his back - especially with the obvious contraption he had. Definite upvote otherwise, but come on guys sheesh, all the IQ you got going and you let that pass?

Despite that I thought this was well done, I really really really don't understand pop-culture's obsession with zombie apocalypse over these past few years. I really don't get the appeal and subsequent ubiquitous-ness now of it all.

The cultural obsession in the 50s and 60s (Dead of the Dead) is now often interpreted to have been a way of playing out the mass psyche's anxieties around communism---and about being coming the "organizational" man.

Not sure what it is now; a statement about suicidal terrorists who, to mass appreciation, seem just as senseless and confusing as an assault by zombies? A larger statement about the foreclosure of a sense of opportunity (doom and apocalypse) by the chief audience for movies, teens and 20-something year olds based on the new, new normal of a zombie economy?

Not sure myself. It will probably be blinding apparent with 20/20 hindsight in 20 more years....

Brilliant !

btw. societies obsession with Zombies is due to the growing fear of the general population and society at large.
Obvious really.
Furthermore it reflects the desire to return to a simpler way of life.
