Yeah, but people on PCP can be killed as easily as a normal person.

have you never seen a zombie movie
it's not the zombies you have to worry about its the humans
imagine the looters
or the red neck hunters
I'd be more afraid of my neighbors
the zombies don't have guns or other weapons
run now, run for your lifes

Once again, this depends on which zombie movie you base it off of.

In my office, I think I am the zombie. I can be killed. Hence, zombies can be killed.  Hence, white is black, and I'm going to die in the next pedestrian crossing.

Have any of you guys read the "Monster Island" series by David Wellington?

Its an online Zombie novel, he's into the third book at the moment.  It chronicles the zombie plague spreading from an Island(book one) to the nation level(book two) and then to the entire planet(book three).

Its an excellent story and a fun read overall.  Lots and lots of zombie goodness, twists, turns, surprises, its got everything.  The first two books are complete and online for reading, the third book is almost finished(he posts 3 new chapters a week, and only has a handful of chapters left).  So basically, if you start reading a few chapters a day of the first two books, by the time you're ready for the third it should be done and you can read it straight through.

But check out the zomebie goodness and enjoy the story!

I been thinking about this and have only just got time to reply   ;)

Lets say we had an attack like resident evil if u die ur dead but if ur bitten and die u become a zombie

Now say you get to a remote island that has no islands around in viewing distance.

You would be safe

A zombie CAN walk in the water but to get to the island they would be going to the bottom of the sea and they would explode from the pressure so they can't get you if they tried.

But now ur gotta wonder if the fish start eating the remains and it only effects humans then it would pass on through the sea and one day you would eat a fish infected and then when u die BAM zombies again.

but if its somethere were everyone dies and becomes a zombie you could go to a remote island and then have heart monitors on each other so if someone dies u know and then u need to get rid of the zombie.

But i was thinking wouldnt it be cool if all of us made a kickass zombie movie ;)

i can see it working do u know why? cause u can do it in blair witch style your a real person with a cam and your taping the zombies while trying to get away from them it would make the movie so much more real and if it was done in hollywood you know it would scare you more if they did it through a normal camera and made the sets look good.

Zombies eh...I love zombie films too.

Not quite sure what I would do...I live slightly in the sticks so I wouldn't have many places to go, and I would probably encounter many more zombs by going to the nearest town/city.

Most people don't have guns here (a few people have shotguns) but I probably wouldn't have easy access to a gun.  So I would try to make some zombie-killing device.  I do have a cricket bat so I could use the Shaun of the Dead appoach as a last resort.  I also have a GoPed so perhaps I could make some kind of chainsaw or something.

If I were to be in certain doom then I wouldn't look forward to trying to cricket-bat myself to death to avoid being eaten alive tho  :D

Why can't zombies swim?  Or float?  Or take a boat?

They don't usually have the ability to use tools, or do complex things.  However they might still have 'memories' which when triggered give them the ability to do so.

So it is possible, but probably unlikely for most of them most of the time.

Dead bodies float.  All you'd need is some zombies that fell in the water and eventually the current could take them to your island.

Good point. There are a lot of critters in the sea that will eat dead stuff though. There may not be much left by the time the zombie got there.

Zombies have time.  If you have enough zombies, and enough time, one of them will make it.

Or, maybe a fish eats a zombie part, becomes a zombiefish, and it spreads.  There goes your main source of protein.

Electrify the water.  I've seen that done before and it worked, IIRC.

You live on a desert island in an apocalyptic scenario... how exactly do you plan on electrifying an entire harbor?  And to what purpose?

but you forget the zombie won't be staying still he will be upright and still moving which will make him sink and if your on a island far out he will blow up from the pressure cause he will be going down to far.

Plus sooner or later his lungs will fill up with water so he will become a rock and flot down but the fact that the zombie won't stop moving will make him go down.

But as i said all depends on what type of zombie scene were going on about.  ;D

Doesn't matter.  My friend lives on an island in a relatively small lake.  I'd be there.  Cut the socket off an extension lead, plug it in and drop it off the jetty.  That'd do it  ::)
