There are a of postings out there assessing why the public has such an infatuation with zombies, but Shaun Huhn's Zombie Zeitgeist: The Influences and Culture of Zombie Movies is one of the most thought-provoking ones I've read in a long time. I especially like Shaun's concept that the appeal of the genre is because a zombie apocalypse presents us with a RESET button that can eradicate all the economic and social hardships of today and give us a chance to start over.
Lately I've been researching Hell for my Young Adult saga Hell Gate, and stumbled across this fascinating story about where the concept of Hell originated -- Hell Is a Myth - Actually a Bunch of Myths.It's defintiely worth checking out.
