On the one hand: they're very cool.
On the other: ceramic guts and spines.
Zombie garden gnomes are now available on the Revenant FX Etsy page, which is owned by a group of Canadian artists who are obsessed with horror.
Inspired by everyone's favourite Zombie movies, they're aiming to to “bring the undead to life, one gnome at a time”. And you know what? They're succeeding.
They're a little pricier than your regular, sunnier gnome, however, as they're currently going for £42 each. Still, that's a small price to pay to make sure your neighbours never pop round for a cuppa ever again.

As Content Director of Shortlist, Marc likes nothing more than to compile endless lists of an evening by candlelight. He started out life as a movie writer for numerous (now defunct) magazines and soon found himself online - editing a gaggle of gadget sites, including TechRadar, Digital Camera World and Tom's Guide UK. At Shortlist you'll find him mostly writing about movies and tech, so no change there then.
