QUICK BITES
The Houston Zombie Walk
Returns this October 19. Like Louisiana Mardi Gras, The Houston Zombie Walk is beginning to draw participants not only from Texas... but Beyond!
The 2013 proceed recipients continue to be the Houston Children's Charity, the Houston Humane Society, and Dove Key Ranch Wildlife Rehab!
For more info, go to the Houston Zombie Walk.
AND
Welcome To Essex
It hasn't been the same since the zombies.
Overnight, the United Kingdom was consumed by an epidemic of terrifying proportions. The majority of the population were killed in a matter of hours as millions of recently-deceased people returned to life and began to attack and kill the living. The infection spread so rapidly that the government had no time to control the situation.
Welcome To Essex was conceived by writer/director Ryan J. Fleming. It was written to be a dark-humoured, large-scaled vision of a Britain in ruins, complete with death and destruction at every turn.
Visit the official website, Welcome To Essex Movie.
