Zombie Tunes 3: The Zombeatles

The Zombeatles is a parody band that comes from Wisconsin that remade many songs from The Beatles with a zombie's perspective while dressing up as zombified versions of the band complete with new names: Jaw Nlennon, Pall Ickartney, Gorge Harryson, Dingo Scarr, Killy Essen, and Eat Breast. Besides the tracks below, the song on their album Meat the Zombeatles are Hey Food, Dead Prudence, Ate Brains a Week, Halp!, She Dead, and I'm Eating Through You.

* A Hard Day's Night of the Living Dead



This video is super fun. Since they're all zombies, the band doesn't sing everything prefectly and devolve a lot into groans and cries for brains. The scenes of the zombies doing household chores is pretty hilarious. The end of the song kind of falls apart because they're zombies and found other things to focus on, like brains.

* A Want to Eat Your Hand



This one has a bit more actual singing in it, which is nice. The hilarity is in the lyrics like "When I much you, I don't feel so empty inside." It's a cute, silly parody of I Want to Hold Your Hand that has just enough zombie growls for flavor.

* All You Need is Brains Mockumentary



This mockumentary chronicles the rise of the Fab Gore in an alternate history where the zombie apocalypse has happened. It is like a Behind the Music type feature where they exist alongside a bunch of other zombie groups like The ZomMonkees, The Rolling Kidney Stones, Elvis Grisly, Boo Marley, Dead Zeppelin, and The Beach Boils. I don't think this is available online, but you can buy it on DVD on their website.
