Three words: ZOMBIE VERSUS SHARK.
Mad props to Derek, who works in the office of my department, for alerting me to the existence of the Italian film Zombie, which features (according to Derek) the only cinematic staging of zombie vs. shark to date.
IMDb associates the following "plot keywords" with this film:
Blood / Cannibalism / Cemetery / Eye Skewering / Intestines
And, let us not forget, a zombie fights a shark.
We must see this film, and soon.

I have actually seen this fine film. It offers, as you suggest, a pioneering intersection between the fields of Hydrographic Adventure Narrative and the burgeoning field of Deadness Studies.
But what I want to see is a zombie shark ...
Yes, and while we're on the shark/horror monster track, why is it that there has never been a Vampire-Shark movie made? Both love blood, both have razor sharp teeth. Wouldn't it be great to make a movie about evil vampire sharks whose bite turns their victims into equally vicious vampire sharks?
You realize that this movie would have to star Vincent Price as aristocratic leader of the Vampire Sharks. He would command them from his beachfront castle by day, and swim the depths, driven by bloodlust, by night.
Like Bunnicula with sharks! Or not exactly.
Speaking of Vincent Price, I am playing his reading of "Ozymandias" for my students today. I hope they know how lucky they are.
