Yes, bells like this exists. However, I have not managed to find proper reference on the net. Wikipedia has a nice entry on hiking and mentions bear bells, but (as you can see), the entry has yet to be written.

(And I don't consider myself enough of an expert to actually write it... maybe I should ask Brenda).

What's good on the zombie news front?

MOVIES

Let's start with our regular block on Land of the Dead:

• An interview with the big-glassed Romero.
• Of course, the Land of the Dead DVD is out soon, just in time for Haloween.

• ''Undead'' has been reviewed here. I have yet to see this one. This guy recommends.

• ''Lawrence of Zombania'' is another zombie movie I never heard of. The article features a link to the movie website.

OTHER ZOMBIE NEWS

• Zombie superheroes? You betcha! Can't wait for this shit! (Did I just type in the word 'shit'? Sorry!)

• If you're into a completely different kind of mood to be scared, you might want to check out... Zombies From the Beyond. It's a zombie musical. There's a picture in the article.

There is a possibility that I might never sleep again.

• If you're one of the many that'll be getting an XBox 360 as soon as it becomes available (or before, if you're into that sort of things), you might want to check out Dead Rising. In this game, I am assured that zombies will, in fact, be shot on sight. Without dialogue and with extreme prejudice.

If you ask me, I think it's pure discrimination against zombiekind. But I digress. Lets move on.

• Zombies? Has been spotted at Comic Alert!, which was a service I was not aware of. Most of your favorite comics are in there (at the moment of typing this, Zombies? is still pending). You can add them all to one single RSS feed. Pretty neat.

You can catch my very own comic strip feed here. If you've got an RSS reader (such as bloglines), more power to you!

• Feakishly cool decorations are what's In for Haloween, Coco. And you *want* to be in. Trust me.

That's enought zombie news for now!

See ya soon.
