Do you guys get "The Walking Dead" on TV? Season three has started; the survivors have just broken into a prison for a secure place to hide out.
What would be your weapon of choice against zombies?
-
I'd throw fat people at them. They're slower to get away and more to munch on. Win win. ;D

As a fat person myself, I hope you'd pull your back out picking up the fat people and the zombies get you instead.

Can I maybe just roll them then? If all the zombies are downhill, I think I'm in with a chance of escape. ;D
-
Is it possible to kill zombies? I know you can bump off vampires with a wooden stake through the heart but I'm not sure about zombies. Would a steamroller work?

Only if it was driven by a salad-dodger.

Napalm! :o
Just like the word really and don't get to use it much!

It seems very easy to kill zombies as shown in The Walking Dead - they are running low on bullets on that show, so now poke them through the eye socket with ready-rod, trying to avoid getting scratched is the trouble.

Why is it zombies don't go after each other? I really think programme makers should address this before their programmes become unbelievable.

Thank God I don't have a television if that's the kind of programme you have to put up with!

Decapitation works wonders every time.
Can I also remind forum members of that highly useful book 'Dr Dale's Zombie Dictionary: The A-Z Guide to Staying Alive'. Available as an e-book on Kindle.
I have a copy on my iPhone just in case...

If there's ever a Government warning film put out about how to deal with zombies, you'll be sorry.

;D

I doubt it. There are no government warnings on dealing with 'humans', and they're a lot worse than Zombies!

One of my Mormon friends invited me to a home survival sales party this Friday. (They are required to keep several years worth of food on hand for their families as part of their religion) - after watching the Zombie shows I am very tempted to get some freeze dried food packages and stock up on bullets.

Seriously? What do they sell at the party? Is it one of those "latest thing on the market" type gigs where they show new products?
That could be quite a lot of food given the size of some families. Didn't realise Mormons took zombies so seriously...good for them.
-
They don’t believe in zombies but they do want to have nutritionally balanced, gourmet meals when they are bunkered in for the duration when the rest of the world is going to hell.
It is a homes sales product line much like Tupperware, candles, spices and all the other things that people try to sell at home sales parties these days. Here is the link to this the freeze dried food website: http://canada.shelfreliance.com/home (http://canada.shelfreliance.com/home)
The trouble with all the home sales items is that they are priced so high because of the pyramid pay structure of the people selling. Of course, should there be a zombie attack I will wish I had invested in food with a 25 year shelf life. :-\

This is brilliant ! Bring on zombies, world pestilence, or a bad run of TV series...I'll be in my bunker, rotating my cans. Best of all, they sell cans of Mince. Who wouldn't want Mince in a can?
(I'm sure Egon could make use of some of this stuff).

It would be handy for a lot of things realy - being light it would be good to take on backpacking trips to the woods or climbing up K2.

Or you could throw them at zombies and hope to knock their heads off.

Apart from The Mummy, I find zombies to be the most ridiculous monsters. I realise the new series (ain't seen it) may portray them as much more mobile, but in any zombie film I've seen, they merely tend to shuffle around.
I've also never figured out what brings them back from the dead. Nor how they got out of their coffins under a ton of earth, some weeks after they've been interred, nor (bearing in mind the phenomenal strength required to achieve their resurrection) how they subsequently can only shuffle about. Maybe they're puffed out.
-
Probably just have ill-fitting slippers.

You're assuming that every buried zombie gets out. But it's only the shallow-buried ones.
Next objection?

;D ;D ;D Painting pictures with words......Classic! ;D

They also always seem to wear rags. Why? Surely funeral parlours don't steal the good clothes people get buried in and swap them for all the charity shop throw-aways?
Actually, maybe that's the secret to non-zombification...make sure your buried by a quality funeral parlour who lets you keep on your Sunday best.

The zombie movies I’ve seen are the current Walking Dead TV series now in its 3rd year. I watched the first year on Netflix when I had high speed briefly last winter – the other was Shaun of the Dead. These are not buried dead people but people who have been bitten or scratched by other zombies as the virus spreads from person to person by blood contact. The virus re-activates the brain once the body is dead – which makes giving mouth-to-mouth on the perishing quite risky.
Really thinking about, it we could have ancestral memories of the black plague which brings rise to the fear and the believability of half dead people walking about and our need to avoid them.
Or maybe it is just a nerd thing.

Does anyone still actually have Sunday Best! ..0

If anyone hasn't seen Zombieland with Woody Harrelson, I can totally recommend it. It is hilarious, with a tremendous Bill Murray cameo.
The zombies all pretty much wear rags. I'm not trying to make a point, I'm just saying.
