Undead Giraffes Can't Roar (but they do in this movie!) ZOOMBIES | Zombie Book Club Ep 98

Zombie Book Club

In this delightfully unhinged episode, Dan and Leah dive into the 2016 cult classic Zoombies, where a wildlife sanctuary becomes ground zero for a zombie animal outbreak. From roaring giraffes (which, fun fact, don't have vocal cords) to a suspiciously taxidermied koala, the film's laughable CGI and plot holes provide endless entertainment. The hosts also share highlights from their community watch party, where snarky commentary enhanced every absurd moment.

The hosts also countdown their top five zombie animals in horror media, notably excluding any from Zoombies. From the iconic Church the cat in Pet Sematary to the terrifying sheep in New Zealand's Black Sheep, they explore what makes these undead creatures so memorable. Additionally, they touch on real-life zombie phenomena like "zombie deer" and cordyceps fungi.

Special Elevator pitch from Katheryn Breen with her zombie romance novel, Rod the Zombie, set to release on August 5th.
