The act of cannibalism is nothing new to the world, though rarely practiced in today's society, for obvious reasons. According to several different media sources this gruesome act has made a major comeback over the last few years taking the crime spotlight over the last several weeks.

Though most of the cannibalistic acts, such as Rudy Eugene's attack on a homeless man in Miami, or Otty Sanchez' violent murder of her child before feasting on his brain, do not fit the description of the typical zombie, they match up quite well to the rage type viruses found in movies like The Crazies only on a smaller more contained level.

Local police departments and the local media were immediately making drug related excuses for these violent acts, claiming the attackers were using a street drug called Bath Salts. Though I do agree that drugs such as this and synthetic marijuana can't possibly be good for you, I could never bring myself to believe they were causing people to crave human flesh.

Several weeks after the grizzly murders toxicology reports cams back on Rudy Eugene, no bath salts or other synthetic drugs were found in his system, only a small trace of marijuana.
