If it involves zombies, I’d say it’s fair game.

[There’s a Zombie on Your Lawn](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0N1_0SUGlDQ), which funnily enough was followed when I watched it by an ad for Bing voiced by Ty Burrell, who was in Dawn of the Dead (remake), which featured Richard Cheese’s rendition of [Down with the Sickness](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0N1_0SUGlDQ), which isn’t really about zombies, but which I thought of when I read the thread title.

And, I just got Ooky Spooky, the album the studio version of this was on (I previously had a live album with it), and it also has Reggae Mortis. (It’s also a very good album, though not as good as Almost Human, despite the latter’s complete lack of zombies.)

I was tempted to say that.

I think if I was the one making the mix, I’d want to put in at least the eight or ten seconds of instrumental intro (which I’m guessing is the most widely-recognized few seconds of Zombies music). Putting the whole track in is probably stretching the joke too far.

If I were going to do an instrumental intro, I might go with music from [Zombies At My Neighbors](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombies_Ate_My_Neighbors).

I wouldn’t pick up on that reference myself, but I’m not a video game guy.

You could always take a couple (ahem) bites of _Return of the Living Dead_ dialogue.

Damnit.

I had a zombie hand smashing through the dirt and wearing a shiny diamond ring moment today. I was listenin to 89X and [Smashing Pumpkins-1979](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNwu3b3mid8&feature=fvw) came on the radio. I was reminded where I had heard that line about freaks and ghouls…

“Justine never knew the rules, hung down with the freaks and the ghouls.”

Seems like I wasn’t the [only person to notice](http://www.music-banter.com/tag/smashing-pumpkins-riffs/). That is one spiffy video for Wait and See… hehe.
