Look, I’m going to be totally honest with you: zombies have just about worn out their welcome. I remember a time when zombie movies meant something. They were the exclusive property of movie geeks and were only made by small, indie studios and only came out of Italy or Pennsylvania. But now it seems like every other movie, video game, or comic book is somehow zombie-related.
I guess that’s the geek curse. You love something so much, but then the boring people of the world get a hold of it and overdo it and it’s just not cool anymore. Oh, well. I still went and drew this even though zombies are overdone.
Ok, I’ll admit it: there is absolutely no quality control here at Gimorozo. That’s how crap like this gets published. Oh well.
What we have here is a pair of zombie greasers. Why would someone draw such a thing? Godzilla only knows. And before you hit up the comments with factual errors like: “Hey, man, those sunglasses are totally mod. A greaser wouldn’t be caught dead in them,” just let me say, “Shut up. This is art, not history. There is absolutely no law nor ordinance saying that art has to be accurate.”
Ok, there, I said it. Yeah, I’m grouchy. It’s 8:30 on a Saturday morning and I haven’t had any coffee yet. And I was up all night working on the site redesign, but did you even notice? No. Do I get a “hey, Gimorozo, I like what you did with the place?” No, I get crap from you about the inaccuracies of my zombie greasers wearing mod sunglasses.
Don’t tell me to calm down! I AM CALM!!! THIS IS ME BEING CALM, OK?! I YELL WHEN I’M CALM!!! YOU WANNA SEE ME UNCALM?!?! DO YA, PUNK?!?! WELL, KEEP PUSHING MY BUTTONS AND–OH, NOW YOU’VE DONE IT!!!
Ah, yes, the Nazi zombie. One of cinema’s greatest villains. Since these nazi zombies are buried under the snow, and snow is crystallized water; do they count as Aquatic Nazi Zombies? Jury’s still out on that one.
Hi. I like monsters. I like commercials starring monsters. Some of my favorite monster-based commercials are from the good people at Jack Links Beef Jerky. When you say their name ( and you should ) try to sound like one of the Duke boys jumping a ravine in the General Lee escaping from the likes of mean ol’ Boss Hog and the incompetent law enforcement of Hazzard county. There is a company website and if you have not seen it yet click the following link: Messin with Sasquatch. It includes all of the TV spots as well as web-only content. Yes. I am selling out.
Another favorite commercial is for Pepto Max. It has a catchy theme song and stunning visuals. According to the commercial, “Pepto Max is maximum pink.” I checked IMDB and “Maximum Pink: the movie” does not exist. There was nothing naughty or nice. Though it is only a matter of time.
The appeal of this commercial is that it encompasses 2/3 of the GIMOROZO triumvirate of evil — Giant Monsters and Robots. If Zombies were involved this would be the perfect commercial. In fact, the Pepto people should consider using Zombies in an upcoming ad campaign. Email me. I got tons of ideas. It can be done tastefully. Everything could be acted out with puppets. Puppets are harmless…if you ignore the following movies:
Dolls
Puppetmaster Series (Full Moon Entertainment not the Heinlein one)
Any of the Child’s Play series
Meet the Feebles
Additional movies about demonic puppets or evil dolls.
I mentioned the Dukes of Hazzard above, so I feel the need to add the following words of caution. Do not watch “Dukes of Hazzard: The Beginning.” My sister’s dog committed SEPPUKU after watching this garbage. This shit will kill you. It even made Netflix sick. You were warned.
