The 'Deadwatch' zombie menace poster is a detailed, illustrated poster purporting to dispense all information relevant to zombies, including how to reduce your chances of becoming a zombie and how to counter zombie attacks.
The project's inventor, Nik Holmes, leverages the authority of an imaginary institution called the 'Department of Undead Defence' to convince buyers to purchase the poster. It is claimed that the department was set up "in 1968 in response to the growing undead epidemic gripping the country." The 'Deadwatch' poster was the brainchild of this department, introduced to spread public awareness about how to deal with zombies.
The poster contains a wealth of information on battling the undead menace, reminding owners that limb amputation is an effective way of preventing zombie infections from spreading, and that people are 74% more likely to be infected by a friend or relative.
