Zombie Prom Analysis

What makes us alive and what makes the zombies dead or undead? Well it all has to with neuroscience and most importantly the brain. The biggest question is what the requirements of life are? The requirements are the process to maintain homeostasis and the ability to adapt to changes. Do zombies maintain homeostasis for the undead couldn’t cause of the decay wouldn’t be able to because it couldn’t respond to change in the environment and don’t the ability to heal or repair. Unlike the livening dead would be able to adjust to the changes also could maintain the in the internal environment.

The zombie apocalypse is finally upon us. The world will now witness man’s most primitive state, selfish, greedy, and cruel. Whose ideas on human nature and idealistic government will best help us in such a situation? The ideas of Thomas Hobbes, a 17th century philosopher, would best benefit the survivors of a zombie apocalypse.

Your zombie usually does not behave normally that resembles anything that was once human. Once mutation has occurred, it is easy to tell at first look that that risen zombie is no longer a living member of the human society. Its movement is generally slow with very poor skills and coordination. Its walk is clumsy and unbalanced. This is caused in part by the cellular decay of their nerves and tissue, and also the poor functioning of the portion of the brain that controls functions. Without control of their circulatory and other systems, the body begins to decay quite fast. This rapid decay occurs in all parts of the body including the eyes, leaving zombies with a very poor sense of sight. This makes them even

Zombie Prom: Written by Dana Rowe and John Dempsey. Directed by Brad Niles. This will be a review and discussion from the showing of Zombie Prom on October 15th 2017. This play was produced by Blinn College: Division of Visual/ Performing Arts and Kinesiology. This play is categorized as Science Fiction. I will be discussing my opinion of the play as well as the acting of the characters and how each actor fit their assumed role. Upon arrival I was not under the impression that the play was a musical, fore I had never seen the play myself. In my opinion the play was favorable and tasteful.

Today, the new movie "Zombieland" has just been released into theaters so the zombie is still going strongly through culture. Night of the Living Dead was a serious horror look at zombies but society has turned a once terrifying genre into some humor. Spoofs like ‘Shawn of the Dead’ and ‘Zombieland’ “has fun messing around with the rules of the post-apocalyptic zombie movie genre” (Machosky). However the reason the undead have survived so long is because they have broadened their publicity range. Not only does the world see zombies in movies, but mankind must “watch out for Nazi zombies rising from the grave in videos games like ‘Dead Snow’ and ‘Call of Duty: World at War’” (Greene). Zombies have been expanded into music as well with the Kingston Trio’s release of the song “Zombie Jamboree”. Even books have been used to spread the disease, such as “at Borders zombie literature runs the gambit from Pride and Prejudice and Zombies to Zombie Haiku” (Greene). In addition, David Lubar has just recently expanded the zombie craze to elementary school children with his newest novel, My Rotten Life (Lauer-Williams). This is a children’s book about a middle school student who is also a zombie. Zombies, once a scary menace only for the brave at heart, have become a friendlier topic for everyone.

In the “Night of the Living Dead”, it illustrates the year on which it's based pretty accurately in some ways, but not so accurately in others. In one case where the motion picture portrays 1969 accurately is when they said the cause of the dead rising was revealed as high-level radiation from a space probe, but you could compare that radiation to what nuclear fallout could be due to the cold war looming with the Russians. It also depicted how gruesome the Vietnam war was, like the blood, guts and how relentlessness the zombies were compared to the Viet-Kong. The way the movie depicted 1969 inaccurately was that there wouldn't be a black man in charge of a household of white men and women. That would be due to the reason that black people back then barely had any rights at all and weren't even seen as human due to racial discrimination. Also, movies during this time barely showed any skin on women, but you could clearly see in the movie that some women zombies were completely naked which was extremely unusual for 1969. In this movie, it puts in a lot of diversity that was very uncommon at this time, but it also broke the ice for future leadership roles to be African Americans.

During the atomic age, the zombie was born, as a new monster that resembled Cold War anxieties. One of the most known fears was the fear of the spread of communism in the United States that would "[turn] citizens into mindless hordes." Nowadays, zombies have developed and are not stupid and slow as shown in the first zombie movies, but they are smart and fast today. The perfect killing machines. Zombies can be compared to "terrorist sects and sleeper cells [...]" (66). The zombie walked represents insecurity in a culture, about "who we are, who the enemy is, and whether s/he is us." The zombie walk helps participants to express their feelings about cultural anxieties related to death and warfare. The destructive force of zombies is detectible in modern anxieties over terrorism and worldwide war. Here, zombies walks have a deep meaning. They "act as a means for working through [...] the structural conditions of a new and violence that so

I like zombies. This year I’m going to be in the zombie run. In the zombie run you run two miles while being chased by zombies. If you get caught your out. The reason I want to be in the zombie run is because I need to be able to run for a long time for when the zombie apocalypse happens. I can already run for long times so I think I’ll do fine. My friends are going to do the zombie chase. The zombie chase is where you have to get the runners before they get to the finish line. There will be lots of other people there to trying to get me and the other runners. I'm already really fast so I’ll make it there in no time. The town we run in is one I know really well so I well do it rely fast.my main concern is to get away from the zombies

A belief adopted in the 1960s, Postmodernism is a culture that questions the certainty of identity. Unlike modernism, which questions the validity of knowledge, postmodernism is skeptical of institutions. Zombieland is an example of a postmodernist film directed by Ruben Fleischer that applies the postmodernism principle of questioning personal identity among four survivors who doubt each other after a plague converts Americans neighbors into zombies that prey on human flesh.

It was also made during the Vietman War. The zombies could be a metaphor for the Double V campaign. The Double V Campaign is a title for the war African Americans had to fight at home and on the war front. The African American man in this film had to fight the war of democracy, It was set during the civil rights movement, while fighting off the zombies.

In the passage ‘Teenage Zombies’ consumed by phones, talks about the kids that are so addicted to their phones in school that they have to hug the wall so they would not bump into anyone while staying on their phones without taking their eyes off the screen. The article states “They often walk near the walls so they can move from class to class without looking away from their screens, he said.
