    So, in order to cure human zombies, stab them in the brain with a large syringe.

    Check.

    You know, the real difference is that the humans behave like zombies OF THEIR OWN FREE WILL!

    Actually, I’m okay with zombie cockroaches. They’re not crawling around in my kitchen. In fact, why don’t we make ALL cockroaches zombie cockroaches?

    So is this where they got the idea for the movie Alien?

    It reminds me of those chest bursting baby aliens.

    Reminds me of this drug prevalent in South America. It’s called scopolamine and it temporarily freezes free will in humans! Scary stuff.
