Movies such
as "The Night Of The Living Dead" (1968) and "Dawn Of The Dead"
(1978 then 2004) have helped propel
(at a slow walking pace) the zombie creature into a classic horror beast
and halloween costume idea. These walking dead creatures have also appeared
in modern pop videos - especially Michael Jackson's Thriller video (1983) -
and in spoof horror movies such as "Shaun Of The Dead". Now there is
even a regular Zombie walk for charity held in many UK cities where
thousands of participants wearing walking dead costumes - such as zombie
footballers, cheerleaders, school boys, office workers - and latex makeup
and fake blood, shuffle
around the city centres for charitable causes. This is known as "Zombie Aid" and
is now sponsored by Smiffy's, one of our suppliers. For info on events click
