Today, Dia De Los Muertos, the dead shall rise. So too shall Allogamy ... (with a nod to Camille Saint-Saens, and featuring the glorious cello warrior Tina Guo).

There isn't a whole lot of 2010 left. It's time to take these last 60 days by the horns.

One word: Vuvuzela.

Austin

The Finale (from the previous Zombie Apocalypse series) has spilled into this post. Tomorrow will bring us some vuvuzela action. The long-awaited (by me, at least) zombie scherzo rounds of the series but with a decidedly Halloween flair. Special thanks to Camille Saint-Saens, to whom we are indebted for this delightful danse.

Cardio is definitely important. With zombies, it's life or death.

Austin

The Postlude for string orchestra (as a sort of passacaglia). Running will only last so long. Can the infection be overcome? Are we lost forever?

For the living, a good zombie disguise might come in handy. Maybe the infected are too dumb to know the difference?

Austin

The Intermezzo for string orchestra. Stealth and creepiness amid a bed of aleatoric pizzicati.

Luckily, Mormon zombies seem to be pleasant folk.

Austin

A misnamed Gigue for string orchestra gives us the zombified Americana appropriate to the Mormon zombie.

It's kill or be eaten, and not just for the already heavily armed. Resist the scourge.

Austin

The March for string orchestra. Stand and fight ...

Let's be honest, one of the first places the initial crop of zombies will be brought is the hospital. Medical staff will constitute the second wave of infected.

6 movements for string orchestra guide us through the Zombie Apocalypse, beginning with this ominous Prelude.
