Zombies, Part 1

November 13, 2010 at 8:42 pm (By Theo Boehm)

The reference to Zombies in a serious academic survey I noted in this recent post has led me to do more research.  It seems Zombies are really trendy right now, and they are figuring in everything from pop culture to epistemology.

I’m preparing a longer post on the subject, but first, I thought some of you would like this clip from “The Ghost Breakers,” a 1940 comedy starring Bob Hope and Paulette Goddard. It’s interesting that Bob Hope was ahead of his time with the ghostbusting concept, as well as condensing hours and hours of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glen Beck, et al., into 25 seconds.

    Although, in fairness, it could be either party today.
