Why are Zombies popular?

Why are zombie movies so popular?


Why is armageddon so popular? It appears that we humans know our unfortunate end is coming in the future. At some point, because of war or disease or disaster, the human population will dwindle, food will become scarce, and people may have to resort to cannibalism to stay alive. Being forced to cannibalism is somewhat forgivable, but wanting to eat your own kind is just plain evil. And we love evil.

The death of a loved one is one of the hardest things for a human being to cope with. Certainly many people who have lost someone wish that they were still with them. Having someone try to eat you is scary, but having someone you loved, come back from the dead and try to eat you, is just plain horrifying.
