I have found this DVD to be very helpful in learning about the techniques required for performing a
smooth Zombie routine. My only wish is that some of the individual moves were shown in slow motion.
But that's a minor complaint. Overall, I would recommend this DVD to anyone interested in Zombie.

I'm a big fan of Zombies in spite of their over-exposure and poor presentation. As Tommy Wonder says
of the trick, "We shouldn't blame the piano for the music played on it." The zombie I got from
Penguin is perfect as is, but I modified it by curving the wire and reworking the cork so it stays
fixed in place.
I bought a second one recently as back up, but am considering a mod which hinges the stick at the top of the ball (on the inside). It's Wonder's idea, and I made one last month with an Xmas ornament. It really makes the ball float more realistically. Anyway, thumbs up on this one as a basic package. The chrome ball is beautiful! Did this review help you?
Excellent informational DVD

I have been wanting to include a Zombie Ball routine in my act but realize this is one trick that is
difficult to do well. This DVD is the solution to that problem. Just the information about gimmick
modification is worth the price of the entire DVD. I wasn't looking for a routine to copy, I just
wanted explanations of the basic moves, ins and outs, and silk and gimmick management. I got all of
that, and more, just from the Jeff McBride section. I am very pleased with this purchase.

An effect such as the Zombie can be done badly. That seems to be what the DVD wants to help you
avoid. However, while the information contained is good, it is not the best. Jeff McBride goes
through a great technical class, but does not provide a routine. Not that you should want to copy a
routine, but it would be good to see how he puts the techniques into play. I find Al Schneider dull.
His performances and acting come off with a flat affect. But he does provide a routine and pretty
good instruction. Tommy Wonders section is the shortest with just some tips and no routine. I have
several WGM DVD's and this one is not on par. Treat this DVD as more of a supplement to your Zombie
training and that will give you the proper context. Try and get something with routines so you can
see how the performers integrate their tips and instructions.

Another great compilation DVD by L&L. This time on the Zombie Ball. The zombie ball is a classic
levitation. Performed poorly, you'll look silly and the audience will catch on. Performed well and
it can be poetry in motion. This DVD features 3 masters of the zombie. Al Schneider wrote the book
on the zombie - literally. He covers the basics from modifying the gimmick to care of the silk.
Jeff McBride takes a deep dive into the various moves that you can do to build a routine. Jeff is a
wonderful teacher. Lastly, the incomparable Tommy Wonder delves into his mind to unlock the secrets
that make the zombie look like modern wizardry. Tommy does not provide a routine but his lecture is
worth the price and then some.
