Remote Controlled Dead Fred zombie chaser


Is this super scary or what? Halloween comes a little bit early with the remote-controlled Dead Fred version, but it looks set to be a surefire winner if the manufacturers could work on reducing the $2,650 price tag. This 4-foot long realistic looking zombie is powered by a quartet of DC motors and two 12-volt batteries, allowing it to groan, scream and talk in full digital audio thanks to an onboard amplifier and speaker. Perfect to keep those pesky kids off your well-manicured lawn. Gotta love Dead Fred’s nasty looking entrails behind.
