Zombie Attacks Continue
Nothing is more peaceful that grazing across beautiful acres of lush green land. Until the zombies, that’s right, zombies pop out of the ground faster than weeds! What to do? Zombie season is here and nothing is worse than not being ready.
Seth Grahame-Smith gave an insight to zombie preparation by taking a twist on Jane Austen’s book, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. The mystery of who is undead and who isn’t accompanies the basic story line. Don’t worry, the romantic story remains unblemished, except for the additional zombie action sequences.
The Bennett daughters remain in their same character, but are also trained zombie killers. Darcy is well known for his mass slaughter of the undead. The whole reason Netherfield Park becomes vacant is because of an unfortunate zombie attack. I found these to be humorous additions to the story indeed.
Or course, I was initially excited by this idea, but found as I read the book, it was seriously lacking in literary merit. But anything containing zombies is already void of quality. Seth has a fun idea with some good moments, I found myself bored, even with zombies attacking. It wasn’t right because there are some places, like Pemberly, that zombies just don’t belong.
Seth Grahame-Smith’s had obvious intentions. He wanted to belittle a well-loved classic into a manfest. It’s like if I were to take James Bond and write a book where he wasn’t licensed to kill, but a successful potpourri maker. I admire Seth for his ambitions, but Jane Austen is on the level of the most successful novelists of the century, and he isn’t. If you secure in your devotion to the original go ahead and read it for yourself.
Another source of zombie fighting fun this Halloween doesn’t have anything to do with battering literature. A special version the hit card game Fluxx has come out called, well, Zombie Fluxx. The point would obviously be not to get any zombies and to kill them when you do.
If, for example, you obtain the brain card and the baseball bat card, you just might be the winner! Watch out, though, because the goal of the game can change faster then your friends turn into zombies. One goal, for example requires you to have nine zombies and the baseball bat to form your own zombie baseball team! Regardless, every game is different and fun.
And in their newest edition, you received Larry the Zombie. I like to call Larry the Old Maid, because when you have him, you can’t win. He’s like the zombie that keeps popping up in the garden no matter how many times you bludger him down.
