Melbourne Zombie Shuffle
Posted By: knumbnutz, 05-01-2010, 01:34 AM

Hi All,

Carl organised a little meet up in the city today for the melbourne zombie shuffle.
There we caught up with Carl and his sister, Voe, Inghard, Brian and Derek.
Unfortunately I didnt stay long, the wife wasnt feeling well but i got a couple of shots away.

Cheers Neil

I think i've been to this doctor


and something for the kids


Lastly, a lovely wedded couple

Hi Ife,
That last one is a cracker !

I think the funniest moment of the event was when they were all standing there and i was wondering what they were waiting for.
Then down the street came a guy with massive DJ rig on wheels playing the start to Michael Jacksons thriller.
It was like, YEP, if youre gonna have a zombie shuffle, you gonna have that song !!! PMSLMAO

Well done Carl for organising it.
Cheers Neil

i hope you don't mind, i gave the link to her



anyone notice that only a handful people (TWO!!) commented on the photos? blood and gore a bit too much for the rest of the pentaxians? or probably too busy shooting ducks?

I couldn't imagine this would be everyone's cup of tea. But, IMO I think we all got some really great portraits.

I think Derek was around when this happened but did anyone witness the episode with the bloke in the Subaru? God damn he was a rude A**hole! I guess some people just can't see the humour/fun in it. He hung his head out the window of his car and was yelling out things like, 'Losers, get a f******* life'. The guy with the walking frame charged at him.. haha

What I found funny was the line of Asian, (tourists?), down Swanston st who appeared to be loving it. And then there were the ones wanting happy snaps with the undead

Browsed through a lot of this but haven't had a chance to comment yet. I'm thinking this is a fairly unique event? I can't imagine it in Perth anyway.
You guys have all done a great job with the images IMO. I guess you weren't short of interesting subjects too

...I was looking through this at lunch at work recently. It's all so realistic I had to remind myself that I shouldn't really be at risk of losing my lunch over it

The shots are wonderful. I love the mummy nurse, but I think the zombie Ronald McDonald could earn a lawsuit in the US and that would be a pity.
