Time to lock & load!

A woman on the local news this evening said her husband's body was taken over by an infection. My immediate response was, "Woah! Zombies!". Get ready, they're HERE!!!

Glad my boys don't read this forum. I think they secretly pray for a zombie invasion. Paper plates with zombie faces on them have been killed in my house more ways than you can possibly imagine.

The new phone books?

Remind them that paper plates don't bite and don't move unless you throw them.

My kids have been know to move often and on occasion bite. They are both also very good shooters. I put my money on the kids.

Rule #1. Cardio

To escape a pursuing zombie you will need to out-run it, and this means being in good shape.

Thanks Zombieland.

True, You don't need to outrun the zombie/bear/tiger/etc. You only need to outrun the other guy...

When everything else fails, there is :

Very timely, I just watched "Shaun of the Dead" again last night. I'm glad I got my zombie killing refresher course in on time.

As long as they are slow, easy to kill and easily fooled by acting like zombies, then I think we are in pretty good shape. It ought to be a good time.

Now, if they turn out to be like the "28 Days Later" or "The Crazies" zombies, then I think we are in trouble. Even the "Zombieland" zombies will give you a run for your money.

What version of the reanimated undead do you think is the most likely? The slow comical clumsy ones or the superhuman alpha predator kind?

Life is like a box of zombies, you never know what your'e gonna get.

Preppers are praying for zombies - and hoo doggy, they's some now, yee-haw, apocalypse is finally upon us! Zombie's to the left of me - zombie's to the right of me. Wonderful!

I toad ja, the apocalypse would be here directly and show nuff, whoa they's one now, shoot, shoot, aim for the brain. If ya just wound em in the body, they become slow moving, infectious snappers. Ugh!

O.K. Maw, hand me that ammo and get to cooking grub, zombie killing's a whole lotta work!

Ah, the good life!

Like your post so much I tought I'd post it again instead of just posting a right after your post.

If such an event happenned, I have to wonder if all the desparate people moving around would be more dangerous than the zombies. Not to mention simple disease and starvation if really bad.

As for running/walking/stumbling, I can't imagine any disease that kills your higher brain function NOT disabling your motor skills at least a little. We don't learn to walk/run overnight. We don't have the same instincts many animals are born with.

MechAg94,

I commend you sir, for giving this most serious subject, a lot of thought.

However, you've overlooked the "fast mover hybrids" per such thoughtful documentaries as "28 Days Later".

Apparently, rather than a diminution of their zombie motor skills, zombie-hood augmented it.
