Check it out: The South Will Rise Again. If you like rednecks, know some rednecks, have redneck relatives or are yourself a redneck, and also are interested in zombies, you owe it to yourself to check out this trailer. There’s no IMDB listing for this movie, so I suspect that Travis Nicholson and Blake McClure have a screenplay, and managed to shoot enough scenes to put together a trailer, but don’t have the resources to actually make the movie. Maybe if the website gets enough interest, they’ll be able to secure funding. ---

I will SO watch that when it comes out. ---

How is a redneck like a zombie? They’re both looking for braaaaaaaaiiiiinnnnnns. ---

So, I wonder… If a redneck becomes a zombie, is he a deadneck? ---

Actually, there is a series of books (collections of short stories) called _Bubbas of the Apocalypse_\* where everyone BUT the rednecks are zombies - seems the chemicals in the generic brand of BBQ sauce they love protected them from the virus that turned the rest of the world into zombies…they’re put out by [Yard Dog Press](http://www.yarddogpress.com). These are some of the funniest stories I’ve read in a while (especially since, growing up in the South I probably know someone exactly like some of the characters in this series. ---
