41 - Shaun of the Dead - Where Were You When Second Wave Zombie Fever Struck?

Whether it's "Dead," "Un-Dead," "the Zed-Word," "White Walkers," or "Zombies," back in the mid to late aughts you couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting some sort of media that featured societal collapse at the hands of these brain eaters.

How's that for a slice of fried gold?
