Transnational Zombie Cinema is as far-ranging as it is erudite. Ziegler has written a thoroughly engaging encounter with the all consuming undead that untangles the individual in the global and revels the transnational poetics of our (collective) zombie future. -- Simon Bacon, editor of The Evolution of Horror in the 21st Century, and Faith and the Zombie Transnational Zombie Cinema, 2010 to 2020: Readings in a Mutating Tradition is a must-own volume for zombie scholars and fans of horror movies everywhere. With excellent scholarship and a "deep dive" approach to lesser-known international zombie films, this work expands the corpus of significant zombie texts and scholarship. -- Kyle Bishop, Southern Utah University; author of The Written Dead
