MOVIE GENRES & OBAMA BUSH

Zombie movies dominate under Bush; Vampire movies will dominate the Obama administration--What does this mean?

Zombies are red, vampires are blue.

Whatever its challenges, the Bush White House has presided over a period of robust health for a genre that – if history is any guide – will soon fade: the zombie movie.

Tuesday's election of a Democratic president, meanwhile, comes at the start of a new cycle of vampire films (“Twilight,” “Let the Right One In”) and TV shows (HBO's “True Blood.”)

Coincidence? Or something spookier?
