Scientists just cannot leave well enough alone. Living cells just aren’t good enough, now we need silica replica cells to do our bidding. An American team of biology researchers has recently crafted artificial “zombie” cells that can outperform natural living cells. Zombies will most certainly be the superman-like “I Am Legend” type. The technique took […]

Euthanized Puppy Returns from the Dead
As if spooky old soviet films and the Safar Center for Resuscitation weren’t enough, now dogs are coming back to life on their own! “Each one was pronounced dead with a stethoscope and everything,” reports Prall to KWTV. The dogs were sent to a dumpster for disposal. The following morning, Prall looked inside of the […]
Latest Pentagon Project: Zombie Pigs
Here’s some science of the new decade for you: how about draining pigs of their blood, making them clinically dead, and then bringing them back to life? Naturally, this is a military project, and those always end well. The theory goes, if you drain a pig (which has a physiology similar to humans) of blood […]
Zombie Mathematical Model: Slim Chances for Survival
SCIENCE: When the zombies attack, it will lead to the collapse of civilization unless dealt with quickly and aggressively. How long will civilization have in a zombie attack? A city with a population around 500,000 will have between three and eight days before irreversible catastrophe. This report is based on a well researched, though fictionalized […]
Undead or Infected Zombies?
Undead or infected? Horror movie puritanism or scientific reality? Discussion and debate surrounds not which makes a better film, but which is more likely to happen. You can blame science. The zombie outbreak will most likely be the result of some experiment gone wrong, an adaptive virus, or horrible pathogen. Save a giant UFO hiding […]
Reanimating Dead Hearts
So the soviet reanimated animal research continues. What do you get with one part cellular cleaning agent, one dead heart, and a couple of mad scientists? That’s right: reanimated hearts. Perhaps the efforts of earlier commie scientists are still being perfected. Scientists in Minnesota have been injecting dead rat hearts with a cleaning solution, then […]
Soviet Reanimated Dog Head: Film Revisited
Reanimated corpse! Live on film! I touched a nerve with my earlier post about reanimated dogs heads. This is a followup to that post, as well as an addendum to my article about types of zombies. This would fall under the scientifically reanimated corpse. In the 40’s, the Soviets were working on experiments involving reanimating […]
A Statistical Analysis of Real Life Zombies
Skeptics love to debunk zombies and the undead. The idea of a zombie outbreak presents several logical points open for debate, such as causes, physiology, the contagious nature of an epidemic and even if a reanimated corpse is possible. Skeptics illustrate that conventional, “real” zombies exist only as a product of voodoo sorcery using tetrodotoxin, […]
Reanimation, regenesis and stem cells: Apocalyptic Frontiers
Stem cell research is a double edged sword. On one hand, the potential benefits to science, humanity and health are immense, and on the other hand it can be plagued with ethical and moral dilemmas involving life, cells, tissue and some may say – playing God. Scientists in Britain are developing a technique to cultivate […]
Immortal Cells – Zombie cancer of mankind
Zombies are like a cancer on mankind. They simply don’t stop their horrendous task of eating and destroying and not dying. If you’re not consumed, you become one of the undead. A plague upon the earth, forever replicating and never dying. Of course, such a thing must eventually break down and wear out because it […]
