Zombies. Zombies. Zombies. I am tired of zombies. I remember enjoying watching the first Resident Evil movie years ago. From there I moved on to the Dawn of the Dead remake (fantastic in my opinion) and from there I started watching and playing other zombie game products. I read a good chunk of the Walking Dead comic and I had a lot of fun playing Left 4 Dead. But at some point I think in the last couple years I became sick of zombies.

     Back in high school was where I first became interested by zombies. I saw the Dawn of the Dead remake countless times, though I never could get into older zombie movies. The first zombie game I played was Resident Evil 4 on the Wii, which was amazing. I killed my damn 53,594 zombies in Dead Rising. I played quite a bit Left 4 Dead with friends. But I have become burned out on zombies. In fact since the games I mentioned I have not finished a single zombie video game though I have picked up several such as RE5, L4D2, Dead Rising 2, and more. Fact is I have come to accept that I will never enjoy zombies as much as I used to.

     What brought me to choose zombies for this post is AMC’s The Walking Dead. I do have to say that I prefer that tv series to any zombie movie I have ever seen. But even then I do not feel particularly drawn to it as I would have been in the past, and I have a habit of missing quite a few episodes. The Telltale Games Walking Dead game is a very interesting game, but I never find the time to get around and finishing any more the first chapter. I see all these zombie movies on Netflix, all these zombie video games and I find I just don’t care about it.

     Perhaps zombies are just to oversaturated in the media for me to care about them anymore. Too many books, and movies, and games on the subject may have killed the interest they once held. Maybe I’m just growing up, though anyone who knows me will vehemently deny that. Maybe one day I will no longer find zombies boring.
