Zombie no one, do you read a lot of Shaun Hutson? I went through a period of reading some of his stuff in my late teenage years. Still got the books.

yeah in my teens I got through loads of his books. they all had really cool covers, and edgy one-word titles...then he seemed to go less horror and more 'crime', and I kind of lost interest tbh.

then I randomly  picked up his new short-story anthology from this year (where the above quote is from). it's quite fun

I don't know if you are familiar with Guy N. Smith  but I found his work to be very similar to Hutson's.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
