The Dead | 
so-so(1989) After the rapture, the dead rise from their graves. Left-behind sinners ponder the state of their souls while battling a zombie horde. I love the idea of mining Christian mythology for horror material -- especially as here when the author has no evangelistic agenda -- but like many another zombie novel this gets bogged down in a repetitive series of violent gross-out set pieces. Still it's fun enough to finish, and just right for the season
