Jay of the Dead’s New Horror Movies presents the 63rd edition of Dead Man Still Walking, your favorite Zombie Movie Podcast hosted by Dr. Walking Dead Kyle William Bishop! This time, the good doctor returns to an older corner of zombie cinema with Umberto Lenzi’s strange and unconventional Italian horror film “Nightmare City” (1980), a movie whose director apparently insisted was not a zombie movie, despite Dr. Bishop arriving at a very different diagnosis. And of course, as for me and my house, we will be believing Dr. Bishop’s assessment. The infected creatures of “Nightmare City” are unlike your average shambling undead: They use knives, clubs, guns and even a harpoon gun; they appear capable of planning and communicating nonverbally; and instead of merely eating flesh, they sometimes stop to drink their victims’ blood. That leaves Dr. Walking Dead pondering an especially unusual case of cinematic zombiism: Are these monsters zombies, infected humans, vampires or some bizarre hybrid of all three?

Jay of the Dead’s New Horror Movies presents the 62nd edition of Dead Man Still Walking, the Zombie Movie Podcast hosted by Dr. Walking Dead himself, Dr. Kyle Bishop! This episode offers a cinematic zombie twofer, beginning with Christopher Landon’s irreverent teen comedy, “Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse” (2015), followed by the main event: Destry Allyn Spielberg’s dystopian Gothic thriller, “Please Don’t Feed the Children” (2025). First, Dr. Bishop briefly ventures into the realm of gross-out humor, zombie strippers and scouting skills put to apocalyptic use. Then Dr. Walking Dead turns his attention to “Please Don’t Feed the Children,” a slow-burning post-apocalyptic thriller in which young people are immune to a mysterious viral outbreak but are persecuted as suspected carriers. Join the horde!

It’s time for your favorite Zombie Movie Podcast brought to you by Jay of the Dead’s New Horror Movies, which is here to present another fascinating edition of Dead Man Still Walking with Dr. Walking Dead Kyle Bishop! This time, Dr. Bishop journeys back to 1974 for a double-feature exploration of two very different zombie films: Dead of Night (also known as “Deathdream”) and Sugar Hill. One is a somber, politically charged meditation on the lingering trauma of the Vietnam War, while the other is a colorful blend of Blaxploitation cinema, voodoo lore, revenge storytelling, and classic raised-dead zombies.

It’s alive! Your favorite Zombie Movie Podcast shambles back into your ears once again — Dead Man Still Walking, starring the ever-insightful (and occasionally curmudgeonly) Dr. Walking Dead himself, Kyle William Bishop! In this episode, the good doctor is joined by none other than special guest Jay of the Dead for a thoughtful — and at times boisterous — discussion of “Weapons” (2025). In this edition, Dr. Bishop digs into a provocative question: Is Weapons actually more of a “true” zombie film than even the works of George A. Romero? It’s a bold claim, and one that sparks plenty of analysis about what really defines a zombie narrative, beyond just shambling corpses and apocalyptic backdrops.

Here in Dead Man Still Walking, Dr. Kyle William Bishop reviews a Netflix Original, Action Martial Arts / Science Fiction / Zombie flick from Thailand called Ziam (2025) — as in “Zombie Siam” or “Ziam.” But using his technical definition, Dr. Bishop would not call “Ziam” much of a Horror movie, despite its zombie monsters because it has hardly any suspense or tension. It is mostly Action (with an empowered protagonist), which is not conducive to promoting fear within viewers. Even so, it’s fun to hear Dr. Bishop talk about watching this film during his camping adventures. Listen!

Happy new year! It’s 2026 and time for another exciting edition of your favorite Zombie Movie Podcast, the one and only Dead Man Still Walking, featuring your favorite zombie expert (and ours), Dr. Walking Dead (Kyle William Bishop)! In this 58th edition of DMSW, the good doctor brings you a double feature of brand-new international zombie flicks! Here in Episode 175 of Jay of the Dead’s New Horror Movies, Dr. Kyle William Bishop reviews The Elixir (2025) and The Silence After (2025). “The Elixir” is an Indonesian zombie horror film, co-written and directed by Kimo Stamboel, about a family whose plan to profit from a healing tonic spirals into catastrophe, triggering a horrific wave of undead in their rural community. And “The Silence After,” directed by Stockton Miller, depicts a Caribbean island which unravels into chaos when a disputed drug trial ignites social unrest and a strange contagion which transforms ordinary residents into feral, undead beings. This is a great episode! Join Dr. Bishop!

Here in this 57th edition of DMSW, the mad doctor discusses a new and noteworthy zombie flick. You see, this past summer, Dr. Bishop’s esteemed colleague, the literary and cultural scholar Sarah Juliet Lauro (“The Transatlantic Zombie” and “Zombie Theory: A Reader”), recommended Outside (2024), a Filipino, post-apocalyptic Zombie Horror film co-written and directed by Carlo Ledesma.

Aha! You’re back! … But didn’t we kill you already? No matter, we can just have Francesco Dellamorte do it again. Welcome back to your favorite Zombie Movie Podcast, that is, Dead Man Still Walking, for its 56th edition in which the Mercurial One, Dr. Walking Dead (Kyle William Bishop), brings you his insights and a solocast presentation on Cemetery Man (1994), (aka “Dellamorte Dellamore”), an example of an Eco-Zombie narrative from the 1990s! Directed by Michele Soavi and based on Tiziano Sclavi’s novel of the same name, “Cemetery Man” stars Rupert Everett, who plays a cemetery caretaker in a small town where he finds himself having to re-bury the dead. Again. This review does contain spoilers. We hope you enjoy Episode 169 of Jay of the Dead’sNew Horror Movies, another essential listen for fans of zombie cinema, combining scholarly insight with genuine fandom from Dr. Bishop himself!

Jay of the Dead’sNew Horror Movies presents… the 55th Edition of the world’s greatest Zombie Movie Podcast — Dead Man Still Walking, starring Dr. Walking Dead Kyle Bishop! In this fascinating and unexpectedly subversive episode, Dr. Bishop welcomes special guest Jay of the Dead to explore the surprising horror history of “The Purple Smurfs” (yes, those Smurfs!) and their uncanny place in zombie canon. This is a must-listen for fans of zombie cinema. Likely inspired somewhat by Richard Matheson’s novel, “I Am Legend” (1954) — yet before George Romero’s shambling ghouls — there existed a little-known, infected-zombie narrative within the Belgian comic, Les Schtroumpfs Noirs (“The Black Smurfs”) from 1959, later wisely adapted for American audiences in 1963 as “The Purple Smurfs.” What seems like a simple children’s story reveals shocking thematic roots in infection, rage, and apocalypse, complete with an urgent race to find a cure. Dr. Bishop herein declares, “Yes, the Purple Smurfs are zombies.”

All right! Get ready to maintain Social Distancing for this week’s special, double-feature episode — the 54th Edition — of DEAD MAN STILL WALKING, with your courageous professor, Dr. Walking Dead Kyle Bishop! For this double-header, Dr. Bishop is discussing two, COVID-inspired zombie films: Corona Zombies (2020) and Zombie Reddy (2021)! And unfortunately, though these two movies are relevant to the topic, they are not the best movies. But Kyle also takes a moment to recommend the Woody Allen directorial debut Comedy, “What’s Up, Tiger Lily?” (1966), and he explains what it has in common with “Corona Zombies” (2020) and “Hell of the Living Dead” (1983).
