Zombie of the Week

cosplay_zombie_re_evil_ii_by_lady_vudu_doll-d2w1b9iAs we’re perpetually running low on zombies to use for ZOTW here, we decided to take the easy way out for a few weeks and highlight some of the amazing zombie cosplay available over at DeviantArt.com.

This week is “Cosplay Zombie Re Evil II” by Lady-Vudu-doll.

Great wound work and horribly uncomfortable-looking contacts are definitely two ingredients of a great zombie.

This is a second entry for this artist, but darn it: he just makes us want to remove his head or destroy his brain.

This week is “Left 4 Dead 2 Spitter Cosplay” by Tycho.

The “spitter” was one of the more disturbing zombies to come out of Valve’s “Left for Dead” (and that’s saying something). This cosplayer nails it so well that we just can’t help wanting to headshot her with a shotgun.

This week is “Zombie PinUp 1” by megmurrderher.

If you’ve never spent time at DeviantArt, you might be forgiven for not realizing that “sexy zombie” is a thing that is. After spending time at DeviantArt you’ll come to realize that “sexy anything” is a thing that is.

This week is “Zombie Aeris – Aerith” by The-MoonSquid.

I was duped, several times, with phony “bring back Aeris” procedures… looks like you have to be careful what you wish for! Photo by Bruce Heinsius.

This week is “Zombie Kat” by The-Katherinator.

Definitely one of the more gooey zombies we’ve seen. Must be a fresh kill. From the artist:

My very first attempt at zombie makeup! Took me about two hours to do, but I was filming my final makeup tutorial while doing so -thus adding more time.

Most of the excessive fake blood is something I made: Corn syrup, canola oil, flour, red and blue food coloring, and a tiny bit o black cream makeup.

This week is “Zombie” by Cvet04ek.

This is just plain disturbing.

Awesomely disturbing.

Islamic Jesus[We’re interrupting our weekly review of zombie cosplay to honor Easter in the best way we know how.]

You may be ready to call additional shenanigans on us because, as you remember, we celebrated Jesus as Zombie of the Week two years ago, and then Mormon Jesus last year. Well, it looks like there’s just a whole gaggle of Jesus’s! Jesui? Jeezes?

This one may be pushing things tho’. Islamic Jesus was an important messenger of the big “g” God, but was neither the son of God nor God himself. He also wasn’t crucified; which probably gets him resentful looks from Christian Jesus at parties. Instead he was assumed bodily into heaven. Some sources see Islamic Jesus as a precursor to Muhammad, other says that he’ll return to fight the anti-christ. One sect just believes that he was a really nice guy, but just a guy. One who ditched the middle-east then died in India.

So, the big question… is Islamic Jesus a zombie? That’s hard to say. I mean, on one hand you could argue that if he went to heaven (which is kinda dying) then came back as Muhammad then Muhammad is a zombie Jesus. On the other hand, I’m getting very bored by this whole thing. Makes me pine for the simplicity of Jewish Jesus, who just plain died.

No matter what your opinion is, it doesn’t matter. This is my site and I make the rules. And I say that Islamic Jesus is such a zombie!

This week is “Zombie Waldo” by Boredman.

Love to see somebody trying something new! From the artist: “In case you were wondering, the metal wire stuck between my lips here helps maintain the deformed grin you see on the second picture. I fashioned it back in 2009 for a Two-Face cosplay. It hurts, but it works.”
