OK so here's the scenario: You are in the comfort of your own home with no-one but yourself. You see on the news that a zombie apocalypse is well on it's way, and you look out of your window to see a sh*t load of the moaning, slack necked blighters approaching your house. Of course, they are quite in the distance so you have time to prepare your home and armour it or whatever. What's your plan of action? Myself, I'd probably get a few days worth of food and a ladder, and climb onto my roof, letting the ladder drop to the ground. Sit back and watch the show baby  This thread was inspired by my watching of 28 weeks later earlier on  Cracking film, definitely recommended.------------- "Market value is irrelevant to intrinsic value."

1. Download Love_Beach.torrent 2. Play Love_Beach.torrent through home stereo 3. Crank it up to 11. 4. Watch all human/zombie flesh dissolve. 5. Nihil. |

| I have a large amount of artillery here, so I'd make put a bunch of food up in the storage in my garage, and make a final stand there. Luckily they won't be able to reach me there, I could cut a hole in the ceiling to get to the roof to watch out and escape if necessary. |

Have fun getting eaten after a few days. If they're: 1) Slow zombies I'll run for my car, drive until there's a place with less or no zombies, and break into houses (hopefully unoccupied at the time), until I find one with a gun. (Protip: any gun retail outlets will either be empty or guarded by their owners/worker who will shoot your dick off as soon as you walk in the door.) I'll probably just keep driving until I can't find any gas at stations anymore. I'll make my way to Washington state or Canada, where it's colder and more remote. Maybe hunker down and see how long I can survive. 2) Fast zombies If they're at the door, I'll most likely use the copious alcohol in my apartment to get too drunk to feel pain, then put on "Spirits" by Pallas and slit my wrists/neck in my bathroom. ...or I'll feel like trying plan 1, and maybe succeeding. If they're far enough away, I'll try plan 1. ------------- http://soundcloud.com/drewagler" rel="nofollow - My soundcloud. Please give feedback if you want! |

| First of all, I wonder where I got a TV, and how I got reception to watch the news. Then, deciding I have no use for the thing, I unplug it from the wall, walk outside, and break it over the face of the first zombie I see. I laugh at irony that only I can perceive. Then I get swarmed by a dozen other zombies and become one of the undead. Once undead, I start a zombie prog band. |

Are we assuming that the zombies are classic zombies? IE, slow and wanting brains? -------------

I'm thinking Night of the Living Dead kind of zombies, but if you wanna attempt surviving an onslaught of 28 Days Later zombies then be my guest  Ignore my first plan of action. It's no fun, and if I say fall off the roof and die, then that'll be going like a pussy. Nah, I think just grab a baseball bat and a couple of knives and just go nuts, maybe the car idea also. If they were runners, then I'd probably hide somewhere ------------- "Market value is irrelevant to intrinsic value." Arnold Schoenberg |

I'd use my back door to get of here after having my important items and stuff such as money, cellphone, light, map, Ipod(lol) etc. (if I have a gun that too of course) if there is a car (a proper one) I drive until I get too tired to do so or I ran out of gas after getting some food and water supplies from a market (from an abandoned one). I'd find a way to arm myself with powerful weapons such as automatic rifles and grenades. I'd find a safehouse (if possible with one enterence) and make a camp there. Then I wait until they come or they die from hunger. ------------- ''Hope is the first step on the road to dissapointment.'' (Friedrich Nietzsche)

I honestly think that zombies wouldn't be so dangerous if we are talking about slow, idiotic and old fashioned ones. you can get rid of them easily by running away or even with normal walking speed if you are in an open area like streets. but I cannot say anything about 28 days&weeks later kinda zombies, you have almost no chance to survive with them. ------------- ''Hope is the first step on the road to dissapointment.''

I know how to deal with Zombieland zombies. That's about it. I would: Wonder why the hell my parents aren't home. Run into the garage. Learn to drive. Take a car (if there is one). If not, then grab some garden tools and start running and swinging the tools like a madman. Find a car. Learn to drive. Drive away. Find someplace with guns (I live in Georgia, shouldn't be too hard). Take guns. Save girl I like if she's still alive. Kill every zombie I see. Find someplace not infested with zombies. If not possible then get out of the US, because knowing the government, they will bomb everything. -------------
