Zombie Apocalypse

If there was a Zombie Apocalypse, what would your plan be? And I mean details, not 'i wud get a gun and shoot them lulz.' Here's mine:

First, just stay at home, collect everything you might need in backpacks, border up all the doors and windows except one on a second floor through which I can escape from later, preferably facing the back garden. While packing, I'd just watch the news channels and try to gather as much info as possible. While the news would go off within a few hours, I'd gather as much information on the Zombiews whereabouts as possible.

Then, as soon as everything's ready, make the escape. After dropping down a cushion or something to soften the fall, I'd jump out of the window into my back garden with my band of survivors. The aim would be to collect weapons (anything capable of removing the head or destroying the brain, the only way to kill a Zombie).

Transport - sounds old fashioned, but, bikes. Cars would draw Zombies to the noise, which would be fine while travelling... not so fine when you need to get out of the car and you find yourself in a writhing mass of Zombies.

Anyway, get to a gun shop. There's one about a mile from my house, so I'd go there, stock up on weapons. From then on, it's a matter of a place to wait for it all to blow over...

In movies, they nearly always go to a shopping centre. Don't. Far too many entrances, not enough durable food (inevitable, the electricity will go out sooner or later), and huge glass windows just waiting to shatter from the pressure of a thousand Zombies pressing their undead flesh up against the glass in an attempt to get closer to your delectable brainz.

One of the best places to go, I think, is one of those Home Depots that sell cement and paint and stuff. Use that to block up the entrances (again except one, this time possibly leading to the roof). Then, at the back there's gardening materials. Seeds, manure, everything you need to grow your own food. From here on, I'd simply wait for the Zombies to die out, or get shot, whatever happens first.

So what would you do in a Zombie Apocalypse?

Re: Zombie Apocalypse

What would I do? In all honesty, I'd be one of the first to die. xD
I'm fat, out of shape, and a coward. Sad, but true.

Re: Zombie Apocalypse

Depends on the means of infection.

Through Bite: Go into fresh water with a boat (Stay near shore, but deep enough for Zombies to not reach the boat) with proper supplies and fishing equipment, use that strategy as long as I can then improv, in such a situation improv is the best way to go.

Air Spread: Suicide. As I would view myself as already infected and would rather not possibly hurt an immune person.

Water spread: Suicide if we can't purify the water.

Re: Zombie Apocalypse

Bite. And there's no cure. It depends on your health and stuff, but about 45 minutes - an hour before you turned into a Zombie.

Same strategy then, if I became infected, Russian Roullette, this is of course assuming I survive the initial outbreak.

Watch "Undead" and you'll change your mind.
I mean it, everyone should watch this movie.

Re: Zombie Apocalypse

I'd sit in a corner reading how to control space ships and stuff, and then I'd push my way through a zombie heard to the nearest space station and go to outer space to get away from all the infected.

And then improv...

Re: Zombie Apocalypse

Anyone here seen Zombieland? If not, watch it. It's owzum.

I'd do the usual, raid a shoppping mall with threee other people, get food, guns etc, find a massive truck, pimp my ride, and drive to the most desert place in the world - wales :D

Once there, we would start up communications with John and Tyloric, who would hopefully steal an American apache helicopter, fly over, pick us up, go to sweden, pick up Tsuyu and live on a swedish mountain drinking ale and occasionally doing a cod 4 style pick up on anyone that wants to join us.

To join, please bring at least 2 packs of pop tarts, and if you live in america, some lucky charms. And reeses peanut butter cups. And root beer.If you live in britain, all I ask is that bring a roast beef. And some yorkshirre puddings.

And some apache ammunition.

I'd put the zombies back in my cage. Sorry they got out again.

Love,

Re: Zombie Apocalypse

Can I come? I think my reluctance to go to Mass recently should get me an invitation surely?

Part 2 of Zombie Apocalypse:

Message from Steve and Andy. They had to cannibalise Angel because they ran out of pop tarts, and they needed to keep the roast. John says a cheesy but oh so wonderful one liner and jumps into the apache, flying to their aid. When he gets there, he finds Steve has been bitten byy Andy, so he is in no imminent danger.
They jump on board, and enjoy some pop tarts. As soon as they arrive back in Sweden however, the mountain is overrun by zombies, so we all have to fit inside, but there is not enough space so Tsuyu has to hang on the landing skis, a feat even Rambo would be proud of.

We search for a good place to land, but everywhere seems overrun. Getting back to Britain, the weater is bad (again) and one of my companions committs suicide rather than living in such a bad country. We decide to take refuge in that massive shopping mall in Bristol (seriously, it's huge).

Then we all go to the pub and wait for it all to blow over.

Re: Zombie Apocalypse

I wonder how effective chain/plate mail armor would be. I'd like to see those suckers bite through that!

That didn't go so well in Shaun of the Dead.

Re: Zombie Apocalypse

I would gather up my buddies, and then pull a dead rising 2 and start making home made weapons, after that we will head to a walmart to gain more supplies. Then we will head ovr to the sears building with snipers and pick off most of the infected. after we run out we will head north to alaska to see ho it is out there.

P.S. I'm gunna pretend to be a zombie and see if i can make it threw a crowd while listening to "Don't stop me now"

Food: Gets eaten.
Chuck Norris: Not even he can survive in a Zombie Apocalypse with just a chainsaw.
Chainsaw: Runs out of fuel.
You: :(

Re: Zombie Apocalypse

The zombies couldn't survive northern Canada. Too cold, and my brethren would be lined at the border with mounted polar bears and I would be holed up north with hockey sticks and syrup cannons. Also flapjack launchers.
