A new performance enhancement drug has side-effects, and then some.
22 October 2010
A company's experimental performance enhancement drug turns it's subjects into hyper zombies. Only one of their test subjects seem to be unaffected and a search is on to find her since she may be the key to perfecting the drug or finding a cure. In the mean time, facing lawsuits and demise the company tries to cover up and eradicate it's mistakes by assassinating some of it's test subjects via it's head of security, a man named Cole, who is having second thoughts about his role in life and his position at the company.

This is a standard zombie movie; no better and no worse than many such movies. So there is nothing new or different here except the zombies are athletic. Watching these zombies, it occurred to me that it is probably possible to have a life with the old-style, lumbering, leg-dragging zombies since anyone (with the exception of the very young, the disabled, and the stupid) could avoid them. I mean you'd peek out your window to see if any of them were about, and if not, you'd grab your briefcase, your bag, your books, whatever, and run off to your job, to school, or wherever. It would be a bit of a nuisance but doable. But with these new-age zombies, forget about it! You'd be shut down completely. They're fast, ferocious, and agile.

This is not the first time I've seen this type of quick-moving zombies in movies. Probably not the first time for you either. They seem to be evolving, or have evolved. So I'm thinking: Suppose there was a way to herd them on to a track and have them race? It would be something.

Boloxxxi's Zombie Race Dream

---Commentator 1: "Aaand theeey're offf!"

---Commentator 2: "What a ragged bunch! Some with no shoes, and some with only one."

---Commentator 3: "Looks like FaceEater is making an early bid. He's pulled ahead more than two lengths."

---Commentator 1: "But SkullBreaker is closing in fast. He wants that human carrot on the bike up ahead."

---Commentator 2: "That would be pretty blond cheerleader Wendy NiceSet. She's been riding motorcycles with her four brothers since she was yeah high."

---Commentator 3: "Hot on the heels of SkullBreaker is BoneChomper and BrainSlurper. -And not to be outdone, coming up right behind those two with their vicious blood-curdling looks, is NeckGouger, SpleenTaker, and BackBreaker."

---Commentator 1: "And last but not least, appropriately bringing up the rear, is AssKisser. What a race folks!!!"

Love, Boloxxxi.
