How do you feel about the latest trend that re-creates literary classics with zombies and sea monsters?

It started with Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Now there’s Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters, Android Karenina, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and the Undead. And more are on the way.

When I first saw Pride and Prejudice and Zombies in my bookstore, I was thoroughly amused by the concept. Now it seems to be getting old. Ironically, when I actually try to read these books, I can’t seem to get into them. Is this to be the fate of all literary classics and notable historical figures? Should that even be the case?

So, I’m curious as to what you all think. Is this a trend in literature that can be taken seriously? Or should it just go away?
