Zombies lumber into Sears

It seems that nowadays it is difficult to get away from lumbering zombies. After years of being in the shadow of the vampire (pun intended) it appears that the undead have found themselves in a social revival. There have been a surge of zombie sightings recently. From Hollywood flicks to video game to TV commercials, you can’t escape the fact they have become the latest “it” monster.

Just in time for Halloween, Sears has created their own take on zombie fun. They have created an extensive shopping site. While it is only a micro site that links to their real online store, nothing has been missed. Complete with English/Zombian translation capabilities, to a Zombie Gift Guide, and some great writing such as “tone while you lumber” and “brain stains be gone”, they have done a great job. And be sure to try the Zombie Friend Maker.

What fun they must have had. I can only imagine unleashing fellow zombie-loving Copelanders to design this. I can see the  gore on the walls already.

    Awesomeness! There is a car commercial out (can’t remember the maker – Toyota?) that touts it’s ability to safely wisk you away from zombies as a selling point. I’m glad that zombies are slowly (lumberingly) replacing cheesy vampires.

    Did you see the My Dead TV on the Sears site? They really took this all the way.

    How cool! That just changed my whole perception of Sears. I had no idea they were forward thinking at all. Great find!

    This is not exactly business related, but along the Zombies being popular trend… check out this horrible prank some parents played on their children. I can’t believe they did this!

    i don’t know about child abuse, but those kids were pretty terrified! Course, have you seen some of the other Japanese reality shows? They push the boundaries quite a bit!

    As for the Sears thing – very cool. Like Juhli, i had no idea they could be so cool…
