Real zombie animals


Roll up, roll up for the first ever (non-introductory) post on the Circus of the Freaky blog. And what a way to kick it all off.

Whether or not you're prepared for the inevitable zombie apocalypse (if you're not prepared, well, good luck with that), zombies have ripped and torn it's way into pop culture like never before. With what appears to be a never-ending stream of books, games, films, music, clothes, gadgets, gizmo's, and other such zombie themed mumbo jumbo, it's undeniable proof that the zombies have taken over. Don’t get me wrong, the Freak is the biggest zombie fan you’re likely to meat. In fact, I’m currently building an army of those undead flesh-eaters from Hell, but that’s just our little secret. Got it?

So, below are three, apparently, real videos of zombie animals!

Up first we have the re-animated zombie dog's head, along with some very much alive inner organs. It's reportedly footage of a 1956 Soviet experiment by a certain Russian who goes by the name of Sergei S. Bryukhonenko, one of the most prolific characters in regard to open-heart surgery in Russia. What do you think? Real or fake? Is it really alive?




It’s a dog life. But what about cats? Who would like to see a cat running without a brain? Who wouldn’t want to see a cat running without a brain?! Here’s another macabre experiment involving a ‘dead’ moggy seemingly running on a treadmill after it had it’s brains scooped out of its skull. Pretty freaky stuff indeed. But perhaps the biggest worry is whether this proves that uncle Romero was wrong? Would destroying the brain actually (re)kill a zombie?




And finally, this one isn't of the experimental/evil-scientist-with-a-little-too-much-time-on-his-hands video. It is instead a filleted, skinned, headless zombie fish (straight from the local supermarket) flapping around on the counter. Is this one a fake? A sign of the apocalypse? Or a very odd sex toy?
