Do you have a contingency plan prepared for an apocalyptic zombie invasion? Can you recite the script of Night of the Living Dead from memory? Want to make the Guinness Book of World Records? Then don your best zombie make-up and join your fellow brain-eating aficionados for the Red, White and Dead zombie walk and show the world that Seattle’s got enough zombie love to break the current world record (4,000) for the largest zombie walk in history. (5,000 is the hoped-for number.) The opportunity to lurch through Fremont, a Thriller dance, zombie survival workshop, book signing (by S.G. Browne of Breathers: A Zombie’s Lament), and zombie fashion show await you as a reward for your undead efforts. (Shaun of the Dead screens outdoors at 7 p.m. as part of the regular Fremont Outdoor Movies schedule.) And don’t forget to bring a can of food for local nonprofit Solid Ground—because while zombies may be able to survive on brains alone, humanity cannot. SARA BRICKNER
