Face eating "zombies"...again

Well, its happened again.  This time across the big pond in the city of Wenzhou in China.  Apparently bus driver name Dong have a few too many drinks on his lunch break and decided he would stand in the middle of traffic until someone stopped.  It just so happened that Du was the unlucky person this day.  Dong jumped on top of her vehicle and started beating on the hood and when she got out to run away he jump on top of her and commence to chewing on her face.

Witnesses, attempting to restrain Dong, were easily resisted by the drunken ninja.  He continued to chew on her until the police arrived and were able to subdue him and take him into custody.  Du was taken to the hospital where she will need plastic surgery to reconstruct her face.

This incident comes in the wake of the Florida "zombie" where Rudy Eugene chewed the face off of a homeless person in late May.  It was said that he was on bath salts but it was later proved not to be case after an autopsy.

It seems to me like face eating has become the thing to do and I'm not sure all these cases are really genuine or people just trying to recreate the hype. Earlier this month police responded to a report of someone acting strangely in a golf course in Atlanta.  Police arrived to find Karl Laventure running around naked with a golf club.  While he was being tasered by police he shouted "I'll eat your face @#$^%$#@%^$#*, I'll eat your face @#$^%$#@%^$#*".

Do You Have What It Takes To Survive The Apocalypse?

Think you have the ability to survive a zombie infested world?  Find out for yourself at the Run For Your Lives 5K zombie filled obstacle course.  It's going on now in select cities from Washington down to Florida.  Here you can test your speed and whits against all types of zombies, from the slow Night of the Living Dead creepers to the 28 Days Later run your ass off killers.

At the start of the race all of the participants will be given a belt with a certain number of flags. Along the way you will encounter zombies that will be trying to take your flags away. If you lose all of your flags you are considered "dead". When you complete the course you are given a medal, either a survivor medal or a zombie medal, depending on living status.  The real kicker is that when you cross the finish line "dead", you become a zombie and then try to take other people flags away. That being said, the longer it takes you to complete the course the more zombies you will have to contend with.

This event is as realist as it gets without actually being eaten by a real zombie.  All zombies are instructed to grab flags and not chew your face off.  In the unlikely even that someone does get hurt they do have medical personnel standing by.

If you think you have what it takes, find out for sure at the next event.

Abraham Lincoln Vs Zombies

By now I'm sure everyone has heard of the new Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter movie, but this one seems to have slipped through the cracks and for obvious reasons.  In this particular flick Abe and his secret service members take on the task of eradicating  the world of zombies in the midst of the civil war. 

Asylum is not really known for producing any blockbuster hits but every once in a while they make a half decent movie, this however is not one.  Bill Oberst Jr plays Abraham Lincoln and does a pretty good job, the rest of the actors should go back to acting school.  The blood a gore seemed really fake and forced and at certain points in the movie the zombies actually looked like they were scared.

One thing I did like was how they kind of intertwined the plot with Abe's history.  I don't want to give too much away just in case you find this movie in a free bin at some second hand movie store and you feel the need to waste 96 minutes of your life.
