If we entered a time of Civil Unrest/Armageddon/Zombie Attacking, what would we do?

Mmmmm, I have a burning question that needs to be answered as a priority.

Are Zombies slow, lumbering, brainless idiots incapable of intelligent thought or fast moving semi intelligent hordes that are portrayed in the film?

The above severely affects my choice of firepower and weaponry.

My understanding is that there are different types - the fast and the slow. Some are intolerant to light.

Best to prepare for all eventualities.

My take on it is a fresh turned zombie would move quickly were as a zombie that has been turned for a while would have degenerated and slowed down.


The film looks good cant wait for the launch date bangbang

I have to say i was disappointed when i saw they were the 'sprinty' type as this was all started (AFAIK) by 28 Days Later, where the people aren't actually zombies as they're not dead, they're just infected with a virus. Hence why the majority of them have died from starvation in 28 Weeks Later.

Zombies are by (movie) definition the undead, so there muscles would break down and they'd rapidly become the shuffling groaning type, simple as. However no one seems to have addressed the fact that eyeballs are one of the fastest rotting parts of the body and they'd all be blind within a few days anyway! :roll:

IMO shotguns are a poor choice of weapon to deal with zombies due to the weight of the ammo, close range and potential splatter of infected blood on you. .22lr all the way for me :good:
