First of all allow me to thank and commend Andrew Migliore not only for publishing this letter, but for continuing his efforts in the field of raising the general public's awareness of the Un-Dead threat. Now in its fourth year, the Undead Film Festival, AKA: Zompire has been bringing the Pacific Northwest the very cutting edge of informational debriefings. From two minute shorts to the feature length, what Migliore presents to you, in one weekend is of dire value the whole calendar year. As funny ha-ha as some of the Zompire fare may be, it is at its core “infotainment”. Information dressed up in wooden stakes and cricket bats that can be used to keep you breathing and thinking one more day ahead of the shambling, flesh eating pack. But information is like luck; it's a neutral idea, it can both be good or bad.
