Zombie Apocalypse Thread

Talk about the Zombie Apocalypse here.

Personally, I can't wait for it. As a zombie, I will eat so many of you it will tax belief.

you'd be the slowest zombie ever. fail

Who cares, i'd be a zombie, a mega huge zombie at that.

[Spanky]

Zombie Apocalypse Plan:

1) Find gun store, hoard weapons
2) Find suitable vehicle for transportation (bus covered with armor?)
3) Find grocery store with liquor store attached, barricade doors and windows
4) Set up shop on roof with a high powered rifle picking off zombies
5) Find suitable female to re-populate the planet
6) Profit

i'd want something that's easier to defend than a mall/store. eiffel tower would be cool... but access to vehicles would be tricky
maybe a dam would be better. hoover dam even. easily defended structure. water. fish for food. park the vehicles on the 'spine'. lots of electricity...

[Mustard]

Thats the spirit!

Well, you've got me there. Oh, don't forget liquor.

[6655321]

i've always thought, procure a boat and jet out to an island, kick back with some rum and eat jerk chicken. crisis fuckin averted.

[Syndicate]

This is serious business....

[Syndicate]

I don't stand on the corner you silly girl. My house is on the corner, and I seriously has the high ground. In the event of The Zombie Apocalypse all I has to do is cut off the stairs to my front deck, and my back deck and the zombies will not be able to reach me. That is why life is good. Plus from my garage I can climb out onto the roof and paint ALIVE INSIDE up on the shingles if needs be, but I plan on riding it all out like a man if I can. I mean really... If one spends as much time as I planning for the eventual Zombie Apocalypse it's be kind of a let down to just cry like a girl and get saved by the army the first day.

I've been considering adding a clause to my will where upon death a steel plate will be inserted in my head so that if I die before the Zombie Apocalypse I'll at least be able to come back as an unkillable zombie.

Not sure if it's legal though.

-do grocery stores not have a whole fuck ton of bottled water?

-electricity would be an issue, but i technically would not even need it to survive

-grocery stores also carry lighters and lighter fluid.

[Syndicate]

But where will the poop go?

But the water will eventually run out, along with the lighters and lighter fluid.

Better to just have a flint and steel.

[Spanky]

also, just had an epiphany. set up shop at fuckin walmart supercenter. they got guns and ammo, ass ton of food, booze, pharmacy. also other building supplies and autoparts to make a fucking zombie smashing vehicle. money.

[Poop Sailboat]

i hear brains are deeeee-licious.

it would take me probably about a year to run through the food and water, you, maybe 2 months.

but yeah, i realize that. when you run out, just get your shit find another store.

Will crows get the zombie disease by eating zombie corpses? If so, numbers is right about the flame thrower.

I like to stick to the classics and imagine a zombie filled world where animals are unaffected and in general totally ignored by the zombies.

i do not trust store mall security doors. fill up a couple of dump trucks w/ supplies and gtfo to a safer location.

[6655321]

when the time comes, i think a nice lightweight aluminum bat will be my weapon of choice for zombie brain bashing that coupled with a nice flamethrower and i'll be invincibileish.

weld those bitches shut.


im just not seeing a better place to set up shop. sure you could go up in the mountains and live in a cave and it would be safer, but i dont think it would be smart to rely on your hunting and fishing ability to procure food.

[Gary_Busey]

I have a sweet axe handle in my room. It's extremely light weight and strong as fuck. I also have a sword, if I ever need some metal blade action.

as long as you got fuel for the flamer, i would want one in my arsenal as well. though i imagine they're too stupid to figure out how to cross a nice 10 foot ditch.

So the only people left in the world will be a bunch of assholes that threw down old ladies to slow down gaining zombie crowds.

It'll be great to be alive.

I'd find a prison and hold up there walking dead style. I mean until some asshole with a tank rolls over my fences and kills my wife and newborn and my friends. But what can ya do that's life....

Seriously, if you can clean the place out and all that, and the prisoners left are willing, a prison would be an ideal place to hide out. Food, lots of security, and hell you can grow your own food if need be. And don't some prisons have back up generators you could use for power when you need it?

Pretty sweet stuff.

Let's team up and start a zombie petting zoo. You'd get all the free flesh you could handle, and I'd take care of the money. Whattaya say?

[Bastard]

I look forward to the zombie apocalypse. I’m almost set with shotguns, pistols, swords, naginata, spears, battle axes, kama, maces, sledgehammers, and maybe a bow with some arrows. I could really use one of those predator blade discs or that weapon from Krull for some fast zombie decapitations. So, after you’re set for weapons and supplies and transportation, you really need to choose some music to listen to while killing zombies. Perhaps some Beethoven to start the massacre.

[Bill]

This is why when I moved into my new place I gladly chose the basement to set up shop. One entrance which can easily be set up as a choke point. Large storage area for essentials, food, water, medical supplies.

Also, I've been arming myself up. You know how hard it is to get guns in NYC? Shit, the apocalypse is one of the reasons why I became a cop. I walk into a store, show my ID and shield and I walk out with whatever I want same day.

The only thing I pray for is that when the zombies do come, they are the slow George Romero kind, and not the speedy motherfuckers. Those things scare the ever living shit out of me.

I would start off with the 9th, Ode to Joy, and flow into Rage Against the Machine or whats that one... "let the bodies hit the floor..."
with a 12, 4-10 and a 20 Ga, plus grosses of ammo, and a son who is a damn fine shot, we're ready for those brain eatin' bastards....

A zombie petting zoo is okay but the real money will be in having a stable of zombie hookers and zombie brothels.

[Archetype]

Yeah, but you gotta start out slow. People will still have a bit of those "family values" left at first, and then as society deteriorates you come in and take over with all the zombie prostitutes and screwed up zombie drugs you've amassed.

[Bastard]

Everyone forgot one of the most important parts of the zombie apocalypse. That would of course be the one liners you say after killing a zombie.

"Take a load off, you look dead tired." Shotgun blast!

[The GWD]

*while maneuvering a crane with a load of zombies towards the world's largest toilet bowl* "Have you fellas gotten much rest lately, you look postively flushed" *Drops zombies into giant toilet*

The post-apocalyptic world in my head is full of gigantic toilets.

[Candycane]

I've read at length about the potential zombie nations to come, fast zombies, slow zombies, zombies that can adapt and learn, I'm leaning toward Dawn of the Dead like zombies or Night of the Living Dead original ones. Hopefully. I can't take the whole Rage type" zombies" who move like the wind.

I thin the Super Walmart is an excellent choice for somewhat of along time not permanently most likely. You would have to learn to grow and find or collect clean water. You would most likely survive if yo were going to survive a chemical attack or something similar. being more of a Hunter gatherer rather than a consumer pig. I'd like to have a few guns but would love to have an Axe like thing and some swords of different sizes. But I'd also like to have non retards wit me, but you know there will always bee that one feeb who will fight with your views and choices so you may have to take him and his cronies out.

[The GWD]

Okay, say there's a GMF Zombie Apocalypse. A scenario in which all the members of GMF, 'cept the noobs, are stuck together in a mall/army base/somewhre secure.

Who would take what positions? I'm sure everyone would say Rich as the leader, etc., but that's the internet. Zombie death is serious business. We'd need a cool-headed leader. We'd need somebody with medical experience in the group(OMG OKIE!), we'd need people for a mobile unit to take out a fortified vehicle and bring back supplies. General marksmen in case the fight gets too close to home. We'll need women to breed.

I elect myself as daytime sniper lookout. For one, I don't like graveyard shifts. And I really would love to shoot people with no kind of repercussions. I'll also work twice as hard for our group by enlisting in the breeding program and impregnating some chicks. I just hope I don't draw ThugQueen.

I would probably be the savage killer wildcard that plays by my own rules but secretly has a heart of gold and ends up going back for a puppy or some hot chick. After saving them I would be surrounded by zombies and take out the entire group with an explosive while uttering a great catch phrase and be presumed dead only to show up later at a crucial time to save the day and of course be in the movie sequel.

[The GWD]

Some people would say landmines would be the perfect perimeter defense, but I have a better idea.

http://i.treehugger.com/files/banana-peel.jpg

Zombies are not too bright. They would walk into a parking lot full of banana peels and slip all over the place. If we had trained snipers in place at all times, they could easily eliminate the threat before they reached our fortress.

Thats awesome... Cleary I would be the brains of the outfit, coming up with clever ways of making life easier as well as better and more efficient ways to kill the zombie horde.

That, or I can take care of the money for the outfit, seeing as I'm basically an accountant now. I'm not really sure why money would be important during the zombie apocalypse though...

I could probably go with those call-girl cards you get on the strip in vegas...

yeah, thats what the currency will be.

[The GWD]

No matter what vehicle you take, you need to have a bicycle just in case it breaks down. Also, a towel. Towels are needed for when you've just outrun a bunch of zombies and the sweat's running down your forehead. Proper post-apocalyptic towel procedure is important.

[Archetype]

Bikes seem like a bad idea all around. Even if you've got crazy blades on your wheels, you'd just run into a zombie hoard and, oh, look, you have no protection, and less agility. Awesome.

[The GWD]

You could always just easily just jump off a fucking bike. And it's a hell of a lot better to have a bike than be on foot if there's 28 days later fast-zombies around.

sloooooow....

[Archetype]

Nah, the nice thing about good ideas, is if you change them slightly, everybody thinks you're a genius.


Well, assuming you murder the creator, and burn all their copies.

[The GWD]

My Uncle and I played this a bit yesterday and he asked me almost immediately, "If they're zombies, why the hell are they running like Olympic sprinters?"

Still not sure I like the running zombies, but it's undeniable that they make for more of a challenge.

I know many people who grew up on the Romero-type zombies are pretty baffled at the runners, like I was, but it makes sense now. If they die and come back almost immediately then they would be just like they were only with one driving thought, "Eat". Depending on the amount of decay, how long they've been dead, rigor mortis would probably set in and slow them down.

I haven't played the game, but if there was a combination of the quick zombies and the shamblers, I think that'd be best.

These tend to start off as shamblers - they'll be standing there or just milling around, doing nothing, then when they're alerted to your presence they take off like possessed children chasing down an ice cream truck.

And I get the "they haven't been dead long" deal, but doesn't rigor tend to set in fairly quickly? The opening video states that this segment takes place "2 weeks after first infection"...Assuming that whatever it is that caused this apocalypse has had to spread via the usual means (bites, attacks, etc.), wouldn't it stand to reason that a majority of these things would be stiff as boards by now given the timetable?

The strange thing about the zombie animations is that they run up to you then stop and the attack animation kicks in. You'd figure that Valve would have them all in one fluid motion...It's a minor thing to pick about, but it sticks out in a game this good looking.

That is exactly how I have viewed zombies. Romero wanted something slow, steady but relentless. Since 28 Days Later fast zombies have become more popular. Each have their own merits but a combination of both makes more sense. They are fast, strong and more agile after re-animating but slowly start to slow down and become more shambling zombies.

For the sake of this game, though, I imagine they are all fast. I mean shit, they can crawl on walls for fuck sake. As far as how this type of virus spreads and so forth, it may be something we never actually discover. It may be typical virus zombies or something more like 28 Days, where its not standard zombies but something different.

Am I alone in the dislike for how creatures like vampires, werewolves, and zombies have developed or evolved? Vampires, case in point. They started off simple, now there's umpteen-hundred different "species" of vampire, all created to suit some idiot authors needs. Now we have zombies that shamble, some that run, some that have long tongues, and yet others that can explode/vomit all over you. The Romero-zombies still work for me because of the overwhelming nature they always carried.

I can't let this thread die! Anyways, this is a discussion from the Left 4 Dead thread, but I thought it interesting enough to bring here. Personally, I hated fast zombies when they were introduced in the '04 Dawn of the Dead remake. I know 28 Days Later came out first, but I don't consider those to be zombie films. In the 28 Days/Weeks films, the 'infected' individuals aren't dead. They're just infected with pure rage, thus they don't move like walking corpses. They aren't dead, which is sort of a requirement from a zombie.

Anyways, in the Dawn of the Dead remake it wouldn't make sense that the zombies would still be Usain Bolt-y fuckers weeks after their initial contraction of the virus, whatever it may be. Rigor Mortis does tend to set in within hours of death. And Zombies ARE dead.

[Mustard]

Wait, dead is the wrong term. It should be reanimated.

[The GWD]

Reanimated bodies...that are dead.

[Izayus]

I got dibs on my friend back home if there is ever a zombie outbreak. Can't wait to kill that kid.

[Bastard]

The frightening thing in dealing with fast zombies, is that you’re going to have giant eating machines sprinting at you. Most of America is overweight and those fat motherfuckers won’t be hindered by asthma or any kind of pain. It would be a fatty zombie paradise.

[Bastard]

Also, depending on whether they are zombies or rage filled crazies or reanimated corpses, wouldn’t that change their weaknesses. Say that they aren’t motivated to eat you but just infect or kill you. So, instead of having the weakness of destroying the brain, they now don’t have any kill center. So, headshots would no longer stop these creatures. Decapitations would be interesting. They would still be after you but since they can’t see you, they are bumping into one another and falling down. Or a neighbor zombie could hold the severed head and the body would still be after you.

[Mustard]

Now thats just talkin' crazy.

[Bastard]

More like a mixture of Re-Animator and zombies which equals awesome.

[The GWD]

Headshots didn't stop the zombies in Return of The Living Dead.

Has anyone seen Rave to the Grave? I've heard REALLY bad things.

[Bastard]

Headshots didn't stop the zombies in Return of The Living Dead.

Has anyone seen Rave to the Grave? I've heard REALLY bad things.

If I have seen it, I don't remember it. Possibly blocked from my memory for a very good reason.

Return of the Living Dead had talking zombies and split dogs and other zombie animals too. Also, that zombie lady that was cut in half was pretty entertaining. It broke a lot of the standard zombie rules.

If I have seen it, I don't remember it. Possibly blocked from my memory for a very good reason.

Return of the Living Dead had talking zombies and split dogs and other zombie animals too. Also, that zombie lady that was cut in half was pretty entertaining. It broke a lot of the standard zombie rules.

I heard the last two Return of the Living Dead movies had zombies that were easier to kill than the motherfuckers in the original Dawn of the Dead. Completely going against the whole original idea of the indestructible zombie.

Was it the Return of the Living Dead zombies that started the whole "zombies eat BRAINS" idea? Because Romero zombies really just want to eat human flesh.

[Bastard]

I believe that Return of the Living Dead was the first to have talking zombies mention brains. The tar zombie and that kid who was turning into a zombie that wanted to eat his girlfriend’s brain.

[IdiotBrain]

In Left 4 Dead there is reference to both "infection" and "zombies" which led me to believe that either:

a.) the zombie like state is produced by someone being infected by some virus that re-animates you after you're dead. [since the survivors are bit and bled on and spit on and whatnot constantly, it's obviously not the traditional "you're bit, you're fucked!" type of thing.]

or

b.) the infected reference is simply a character assumption.


However if the zombie apocalypse does come, my first stop will be my local gunstore.. then to either a cabela's, a bass pro shop or an academy... then to an army surplus store. gotta stock up.

And remember kids. axes don't run out of ammo. Neither do machetes.

EDIT: Lets all hope if it does come to it, they're shamblers. I'm a good shot from long distance and we can whittle them down.

In the 2nd return of the dead, the chick was dumb enough to let her boyfriend eat her brain....LET HIM EAT HER BRAIN...My question is this, how the hell did he just bite past her skull? Made it seem like he could crack that bitch like an eggshell.

Here is the story about the zombie apocalypse. It's like Studs Terkel meets George Romero. Seirously a damn good read:

I guess Metallica's video for All Nightmare Long was a zombie deal. Interesting concept and execution, especially for a music video.

One problem, if you get up close and start chopping them down there is the problem of becoming infected when Zombie blood gets on you.

So Make sure you are covered well.

i would rather be a fighter than a zombie. swords and shotguns all the way.

I wanna go back to bed

A little late to the party but why does every one alwasy talk about finding a local Wall Mart or what ever? Wouldn't you want to keep on the move trying to find out if its all over the world, or a local phenomena? Also I'd try to go north, there's less people and in most stories its where there is the least infection.

[leafsmack0]

I would seduce the zombies with my butthole, or at least try to.

It might partially work as they love dead things but if there was even the slightest hint of a winking, you'd be zombie butt toast with gooey ass jam.

You must have watched the last Resident Evil flick lately.

Yeah home sick and decided to watch it. It was the only thing about that movie that made sense. Also I was thinking of 30 days of night and how the vampires were not able to track very well.

The minute a Zombie Apocalypse hits, energy will become a precious commodity. Power plants will go down, refinery's will be abandoned; you wanna find somewhere that's fairly self-sufficient, not waste a bunch of gas getting to where it's cold and the heat sources become shady. Wal-Mart or a Mall would be moderately smart, especially for supplies, but an abandoned hospital? Or a prison compound? You'd be set.

and would also spend many resources fighting off many other people having the same idea. steal one solar powered car that can still out run a zombie and get somewhere where there are fewer people or stay in an urban setting and have to fight outlaw bikers, religious zealots and and weekend warriors?

[Hodge]

Fuck it. I'm going north. Places like the Yukon and Alaska should have enough time to stop traffic in and out. Whitehorse has its own hydroelectric dam.
If worse comes to worst build a fire and start living off the land (not Chris McCandless style, I actually have some clue). Head far enough north and most zombies will be frozen solid before they make it to where I'm at.

Christ, there was some guy who built a log cabin out in the middle of a forest, and lived there, alone, for some 30 years, and filmed almost all of it. I can't for the love of me think of the name, but he was pretty much Survivorman permanent. Only thing is, I think he had a helicopter. I don't suppose you know who I'm babbling about?

Not at all. It seems like BC gets a crazy like that on a yearly basis. There was that one dude a few years ago that lived out in the bush around Shuswap lake and spent the winter months staying and ransacking local cabins to get by.
Google gives me nothing.

rookies. each of my points addresses the problems. you want power, a dam is your place. you wanna traverse a continent? my vehicle got you covered.
maybe a dam would be better. hoover dam even. easily defended structure. water. fish for food. park the vehicles on the 'spine'. lots of electricity...
i don't mess around. i would definitely want this in my fleet. why stress when you can cruise in worry-free style?

couple pinzgauers would be nice too for when you need more speed

[Mr. Brown]

rookies. each of my points addresses the problems. you want power, a dam is your place. you wanna traverse a continent? my vehicle got you covered.

although this is a thread about zombies, lets' be realistic, where are you going to get access to that? I'm sure that it takes more than one person to even turn that on and the amount of fuel that it burns is so damn much. Also don't you think there will be others that will want to use that? What you gonna share?

[}{arlequin]

i actually imagine about 30 people in north america coming up w/ this lazy ass scheme. w/in that 30, there will be only a few close enough, or w/ means, to assemble a group and head for that location.

if the military come up w/ it as well and thus grab the vehicle first, then we intercept them and hope they let us aboard. although i do think the military first thing to do will be to fight and not to bother securing a booster rocket transporter. just a hunch

[}{arlequin]

also... using that transporter wouldn't be a 'shuttle service' type of thing. it would be steadily and continuously moving westward from cape canaveral. all the smaller support vehicles (pinz' or gwagen or any other suv's) would scout out the areas for upcoming operational gas stations. reach one, top off by completely draining it. and from there heading out into the direction of the next one.

leapfrog. but w/ suv scouts.

I would move to a farm and just hole up there. Work on building high fences, raising crops and livestock with other like minded folks. And prey we don't go all shit house crazy on each other like in The Walking Dead.

Zombies find their meat by smell. Your demeanor wouldn't matter, though I wonder if you smoked enough, if you'd just mask your smell.

[Nature's Folly]

More and more when i hear an emergency broadcast on radio or TV, i think for just a moment..."This is it!!! It has started!!!" I Live sorta out in the middle of no where so hearing gun shots from idiots in the woods is not uncommon. So that also leads to "Is that guy blowing away some zombie?" In these trouble times a man must keep himself ready for all possibilities. I do this by being a slow fat target...ya know, so that others may escape.

The zombie apocalypse is all part of a plan.
