As my fellow blogger Neil FitzPatrick reminds us, Halloween provides a smashing (pun) opportunity to reconnect with the idylls of our childhoods, and reanimate (zombie pun) the whimsical, irony-less wonder of being young and armed with an empty pillow case on the hunt for the house with king-size butterfingers.
Thus, in the spirit of the season, I present the following lessons to be learned from zombies:
Eat: Hunger and malnourishment can lead to horrible consequences. Like this. (Beware—watch only if you have a stomach for gore.)
Sleep: Think you don't need sleep? Neither do Zombies. Do yourself a solid, and get some (sleep, that is, not zombies. Although the latter could be interesting.)
