Taglines are a form of marketing where a single phrase is used to represent an entire idea. That phrase should be catchy enough to stick in a person’s mind as well as short enough to fit on… say… a movie poster. All movies have taglines some of them are brilliant pieces of marketing which fulfill their purpose to the maximum extent- others fall far short of the mark.
Zombie movies have some of the most interesting and mind catching taglines in the business- probably because zombie movies are free to have some of the most outrageous story lines in the business.
Some of my favorite taglines:
Just when you thought it was safe to be dead- Return of the Living Dead Part 2 (1988)
Those Damned Dead just won’t Die! – Last of the Living (2009)
And my favorite…
He’ll Steal your heart….or eat it! – Fido (2006)
So, is there a zombie tagline feasting on your brains?
