    The spirit web site has a "watch video" link on the product page:
    http://www.spirithalloween.com/produ...eating-zombie/

    The video is small, and I wonder if the sound is really as good with the actual prop? Anyway, if you just wanted to see it move, this link should work

    I've been in their store a couple times... The sound in the video seems much clearer/louder sounding than the actual prop, like the original soundtrack was embedded in the video instead of what the track sounded like coming out of the prop's speaker... But in real life the sounds are pretty clear/good, and the volume level is good too. It was easily heard over other ambient noises. Here's the video on spirit's youtube channel... It's bigger than the one they have on their website. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUR0TCRDrV4 It moves like it did in the video though, although the plastic or whatever it was under the shirt used to keep the torso shape was obvious. Either they set it up badly, or you'll want to add some additional filler to make the torso look more normal.

    It's a decent looking prop. The sculpt of the face and hands are actually pretty nice. I'd agree with filling the clothes out a bit. I'm contemplating ths prop. Loved the video but want to see it work up close and personal and maybe hear some reviews of those who buy it.
    Americans sleep peacefully in their beds at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

    I disagree.....I thing this guy is pretty cool and I plan on getting one, My son works at spirits this year, so I got to see the inner workings of the zombie and he wasn't that bad. plus I think he sound really good just like the video.

    I have this prop, I will see if i can get a video up soon. The sound is of course better in the Teky video but hey isn't all the videos better. It is actually pretty loud and clear though. The hands and head are really well made, everything else is cheap. The motor that moves the prop makes some noise but that could be because I havent screwed everything down yet. The one at the store doesn't make any noise so I'm sure the noise can be fixed.

    Also the sensor is really unpredictable, Sometimes I walk by and it goes off, other times I wave in front of the sensor and it doesn't go off. Sometimes I clap and it goes off sometimes I can't activate it by clapping. A flash from a camera or phone will set it off every time though

    In all, I really like it.

    I also have the john doe, and just ordered the spider and rosemary so when I get those in I will post those as well.

    I agree with the others... Of all the zombie figures I saw in the stores (crawling zombie, twilight twitcher, shadow stalker, eatin alive, and flesh eater) it was the best in my opinion. If I was to get one, it would be the flesh eater hands down. The movement, sound, and look you get for the price is really good, you just need to work on the padding a little bit. I just don't have a zombie part to my haunt yet, so I'm not getting any. Next year I may add one though, but I doubt these will be available in the after season sale.

    I'd recommend buying these while they're still available. Especially when there's the 20% off coupons you can use. Pick him up for ~136 plus tax.

    And then I'd recommend buying a footpad from harbor freight and a cheapo pair of headphones from the dollar store and hacking a headphone jack on the footpad(He has the port for a try me button, but not footpad) to activate him that way instead of the built-in sensor. It does seem like it's not sensitive enough.
