I feel like at some point somebody should do an adaptation of Hamlet involving a zombie outbreak as a major part of the plot, if only because "something is rotten in the state of Denmark" as the tagline is too good an opportunity to pass up.

i mean it's already got ghosts, what's so crazy about zombies

Oh yeah, Hamlet's father is a zombie in this version, no question.

It's been forever since I read Hamlet but something something his thirst for vengeance leading Hamlet down a road of destruction in the original paralleled and magnified by his thirst for vengeance leading to an out of control zombie outbreak in Denmark in this version? Something something the contagious nature of zombies used to draw attention to the cycle of careless violence that ends up destroying everyone involved? Is that anything?
