Zombies Surface (Again) as Halloween Approaches

Tom Fudge :  With Halloween right around the corner, KPBS film critic Beth Accomando wanted to highlight a horror sub-genre that she's particularly fond of - the zombie film. Those lumbering, vacant-eyed undead have become a horror staple since the 1930s. And they seem to be gaining popularity with recent films such as "Shaun of the Dead."

So this Halloween, Beth suggests some undead titles with the help of author Glenn Kay who just wrote "Zombie Movies: The Ultimate Guide. " But first Beth spoke with some of the undead at Sunday's World Zombie Walk in downtown San Diego.
