I have a strong passion for zombie science fiction i.e the walking dead, resident evil, I would love nothing more than to create a undead universe of my own I just have trouble coming up with something unique is there any advice or ideas people can give me? thank you very much.

To add on to Kate the widow turns her husband into some flesh into zombie and she's his first meal followed by a wounded few turning into zombies as well until a brave man searches for a cure to undo the evil dead with a pretty sidekick...

I like zombie movies, did you watch Warm Bodies - funny and scary and human.

What if the zombies wants to be human again but dont know how?...

Good Luck and whatever you decide-post a snippet.

Simon Pegg introduced the world to the Zom Rom Com, so maybe you could combine other genres?

How about a Zombie Police Procedural? A Detective Inspector is stabbed and realises he is going to die; he's so close to retirement, so he persuades his soon-to-be-widow to help him find a way to stay "alive" a bit longer...
