Be Prepared for Zombies

According to Max Brooks, if you think you're safe this Halloween, you would be wrong -- dead wrong.

For Brooks, an acclaimed author and former "Saturday Night Live" writer, the threat of a zombie attack is a global problem for all humans, including University students.

"Zombies are a virus," Brooks said. "They multiply and expand and affect the host -- the entire human race."

Brooks, the son of filmmaker Mel Brooks, will teach an anti-ghoul seminar at 7:30 tonight at the University Chapel.

"Zombies can attack at any time," Brooks said. "The key word is eternal vigilance.

"Their biggest weapon is our ignorance," he said. "Knowledge is power and that is how we are going to beat them."

Zombies look just like humans but are dead, he said.

If anyone would know about braindead monsters, it would be a former Saturday Night Live writer.
