Why You Should Never Take Kate Carraway to IKEA
Subway Suicide Statistics Released
Street Heart
Newsstand: November 27, 2009
A stench of zombies stalked the streets of Toronto yesterday, shuffling and moaning from Trinity Bellwoods Park to the Bloor Cinema, where the Toronto After Dark Film Festival is taking place. The 2008 Zombie Walk was noticeably larger than last year's, with zombies snaking up Bathurst Street even as the last of the stragglers ambled out of the park. The undead proved to be very well behaved, with only a few—generally amused—police riders needed to keep them corralled on the sidewalks.

There are also some really great shots in Torontoist's Flickr pool, too, but I think we can safely say that this dude wins best sign, this girl wins best zombie librarian, and this guy wins smiliest cop.
great shots miles, i was actually on the lookout for you yesterday but i couldnt spot you
the zombie fetus is amazing. very well done
I love it!
But I have to wonder about the few zombies with bullet holes in head... they just shouldn't be walking otherwise ALL hope is lost for the rest of us.
Colbalt, in some zombie stories (like The Walking Dead series) you don't have to be infected to become a zombie, anyone who dies will turn into one. So I think the people with bullet holes maybe died that way, then turned into zombies. In that case removing the head should still put them down for good, but I didn't have time to test my theory :)
Those arn't bullet holes, they are speed holes. They make the zombie go faster.
Indeed sometimes the dead do just rise up for no particular reason (that we're privy to at least) but still I'd think that if a living persons brain was destroyed, by bullet or bludgeon or whatever then that would prevent them from reanimating. Isn't that a preventative measure that some folks, when backed into a corner, have used to avoid walking around like one of "them"... eh, maybe with those zombies in the park the bullets just got lodged in their thick skulls.
anyway, i walked along Queen W yesterday afternoon and there was zombie blood all over the sidewalks, and smeared on some signs and windows... man those ghouls musta been all messed up.
