Not for me - not a big zombie fan - but I will most certainly forward this on to some students at my school who are in the process of filming a zombie movie. I think I might be able to get about 6-12 people to join in with you!

BTW, by definition, zombies walk kind of slow, don’t they? At that speed, won’t this jaunt take about 9 hours?

My city has this event too. I have to join it one year. A couple of years ago I bought a foam latex zombie kit that took me 5 hours to put on and paint. Complete with ragged dirty business atire and beat up brief case, white contacts. It was sooo much fun.

My sister was having a holloween party. She saw me get of the cab with my gorilla friend and was terrified she said she couldn’t look at me for awhile until she had a few drinks.

Excellent, tell them to look for the zombie bride! And I think we’re going to be some of those ‘fast’ zombies…

BTW, I was at school yesterday and mentioned this to the guy who wrote and is directing the school film. I said, “Did you know about the upcoming zombie walk?”  
He looked at me and said, “Duh…yeah! We are all going!”

I should have known he would be aware of anything zombie on the west coast, especially here in Vegas. I will tell him to be looking for a zombie bride, but my guess is you might not be the only one…

Sweet! Thanks! Any other LV Dopers out there who are into a little shambling?
