The Zombeatles are a zombie parody version of the pop group The Beatles. Stemming from Madison, WI band The Gomers, the group's Halloween 2006 video Hard Day's Night Of The Living Dead gained international status when horror director and musician Rob Zombie chose it as one of his top YouTube Halloween video picks of 2007, resulting in over a million views worldwide.

In 2009 they released an album called Meat the Zombeatles and a Mockumentary called All You Need Is Brains as well as touring New Jersey and appearing with John Wesley Harding (singer) and Eugene Mirman in their Cabinet Of Wonders Variety Show in April.
