Fast zombie. They are part of our world. It is no secret that mayhem and chaos sell, fear sells, it sells all the time. One of the classic methods of selling fear is the horror movie. It’s a genre all to itself with monsters that have changed over time. The monsters used to be the elite.


The mad doctor who creates his monster. The undead Egyptian Pharaoh that’s stalking his victims for being disrupted from his sleep. A Count who sucks your blood, an invisible man, made insane by his experiment as and an elite scientist.

Fast Zombies and Old Monsters

These old monsters came down from on high, from the elite of society. The creators often, through acts, of hubris flew too close to the Sun. Like Icarus from the myth. The results became these twisted and distorted monsters


Today the monsters are us. The Purge movies are about people running amok under the cover of law, or lawlessness actually. The walking dead are about, well zombies galore. We have stories and movies about mass murderers and psychopathic killers.


I’m not offering a solution here, just an observation that movies can lead or follow popular culture. But they do mimic and often reflect what is happening.

Where Did That Fast Zombie Come From?

As we look back over our shoulders and see the looming monster who is chasing us, what they look like? How fast they’re moving and can we get a good look at them? The question becomes, what’s their point of origin? Where did they come from? or they were they created from on high like the monsters of older. Were they created here with the rest of us? And as we look over our shoulder, as we are running away, the question remains, how did we come to this place?


Again, I make no conclusions here. This is simply an observation. It’s your responsibility to adjust the lights on the movie set for a different look.
