Life Imitates Horror: Zombie Dad

Posted by Ms Harker | Filed under Life imitates Horror

Just when you thought the pustule coloured tsunami of Zombie related books, film and merchandise couldn’t saturate your braaain any more. Like a an undead arm coming out of its socket out pops this unsavoury tale of cannibalistic mayhem from Bakersfield, California.

A thirty four year old father was accused in May 2009 of chewing out his son’s eye (and injuring the other with a chomp) in an alleged  PCP (Phencyclidine) fueled zombiesque romp which ended in the man attempting to cut off his own leg with an axe, when obviously his hunger for human flesh was still unsatisfied. Now ask yourself people, has the Zombie trend gone too far? Are we seeing the impact of an over saturation of Zombie material infecting the brains of the general populace resulting in these types of acts. What ever happened to a good old vampire like nibble on the neck during a maniacal sex romp between consenting adults?

However, the poor child’s statement to police will make for good telemovie if not feature film fodder… I can see the scene now, Tom Hanks the hardened alcoholic District Attorney, whose been given the case of the ‘Zombie Dad’, as his co-workers won’t touch it. But Hank’s the hardened attorney, has had his heart won over by the blind chewed up boy and puts him on the stand… The victory music starts to play as the Hank’s asks the young boy ‘What did you tell the police when they arrived son?’… pause for dramatic effect… ‘My daddy ate out my eyes.’… pause for dramatic effect… Hanks: ‘Ladies and gentlmen of the jury, my daddy ate out my eyes, my daddy ate out my eyes… the public rests.’ Zombie dad hangs head in shame, judge slams down gavel and shouts ‘Guilty as charged!’, Hanks and the blind boy high five each other… roll credits.

    Damn, I’ve heard of people doing crazy crap on PCP but this takes the cake.

    And I think in a triumphant return, Steve Guttenberg should play the cracked out father. Worked for Mickey Rourke.
