I posted this image earlier this week at Tasty Flesh, but I wanted to talk a little bit more about it here on my blog, if you don’t mind. I call this masterpiece of mayhem: “Prairie Dawn of the Dead!”
Now, I’m sure that some of you are horrified. …I am equally sure, however, that none of you are surprised. You might think that I am being unfairly cruel to such a beloved childhood memory in a mean-spirited way. You couldn’t be more wrong, and here’s why: I love Sesame Street. I grew up learning with Kermit and Grover, and laughing with Bert and Ernie. I loved all the amazing (and amazingly varied) animated segments on the show. So, Sesame Street has a very special place in my heart. (Except for Elmo. I think he’s a terrible addition, but that’s a whole different discussion.) But for someone like me, who is a rabid, blood-thirsty, twisted zombie fanatic….. zombifying the cast is my way of showing my love and appreciation for my childhood friends! They say you always hurt the ones you love, and I couldn’t agree more.
Also, to be fair, most of the cast of Sesame Street were already monsters to begin with! They’re just… a different kind of monster now. So, I hope you can all enjoy this, and appreciate a little more of the sentiment in it now. …because you’ll probably be seeing it in color sometime soon. Mwahaha!
