Bela Lugosi in White Zombie, not a Buddhist
by Jesse Hiltz
What would it be like to be attacked by Evil Buddhists?
A new video game by Austrian developer Deep Silver uses evil Buddhists to scarify new survival, horror narrative.
IGN, UK – “Evil Buddhists? What’s so evil about Buddhists? Evil priests we can fathom, but pinning a survival horror game on a religion that’s become a byword for peace-loving and calm seems like a curious choice at best – but that’s the road that’s being taken by Cursed Mountain, the first game from Austrian developers Deep Silver that’s coming exclusively to the Wii.”

This pic is not nearly as terrifying and funny as the evil baby. He does look quite wise, for a zombie.
visually, the game looks like it'd be interesting to check out. But what were they thinking with the "evil Buddhists"? It's an oxymoron if I ever heard one…
What is more terrifying than a group of people who 'seem' totally innocent, but turn absolutely evil? It's like in the 80's when movie had evil clowns, dolls, and Santa Clauses… There are more but I can't remember what they were.
And, reincarnation: does someone see a twist on the classic zombie archetype?
