Watch out, zombies are everywhere! 'The Walking Dead' is the most popular show on television, 'World War Z' is a summer hit at the box office, in October there was a Zombie Run in Hannibal, then a Zombie Pub Crawl, and now a new zombie movie debuting this month features footage shot in Edina, Missouri!
