Since the early 2000s, zombies have increasingly swarmed the
landscape of popular culture, with ever more diverse
representations of the undead being imagined. A growing number of
zombie narratives have introduced sexual themes, endowing the
living dead with their own sexual identity. The unpleasant idea of
the sexual zombie is itself provocative, triggering questions about
the nature of desire, sex, sexuality, and the politics of our
sexual behaviors. However, the notion of zombie sex has been
largely unaddressed in scholarship. This collection addresses that
unexamined aspect of zombiedom, with essays engaging a variety of
media texts, including graphic novels, films, television,
pornography, literature, and internet meme culture. The essayists
are scholars from a variety of disciplines, including History,
Theology, Film Studies, and Gender and Queer Studies. Covering The
Walking Dead, Warm Bodies, and Bruce LaBruce's zombie-porn movies,
this work investigates the cultural, political and philosophical
issues raised by undead sex and zombie sexuality.
