Review of Birth of the Living Dead (2013) by Exhibe — 17 Jan 2014
It's become increasingly obvious, since "Shaun of the Dead" and AMC's "Walking Dead," that zombies are a potent metaphor for the alienation, disempowerment, anger and frustration that we feel in contemporary society.
Take the Wall Street/Main Street dichotomy, add job frustration, dissatisfaction, loss of community and family, subsistence wages for corporate servants, pervasive lack of individualized fulfillment, and hyper-consumerist appetites stimulated by the same corporations now openly buy our "democracy" and Voila!--here we are, dead in life.
