Movie Survival Test: Zombies.
« on: April 06, 2008, 07:00:31 AM »
OK, a virus or whatever is ravaging the world, and flesh eating zombies are infesting the cities. The govt has collapsed. Its only YOU and a few survivors in your group left.

Question: Where would you go to rebuild civilization again?
Is there anything special you would go out of your way to take with you?

I would go to Iowa because you can see for miles there.  There is nothing but flat land, corn, soybeans, and good people there.  I would take all of my guns and ammo, lighters, seeds, a chainsaw, tools, and my family.
All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.

I'd go to Maui, where the trade winds would sweep away the stench of death.
Guns and ammo, baby, guns and ammo...

You may think so, but Zombies don't freeze to death.

At least I don't think so.

I would try to understand the cultural differences between the living culture and the zombi culture and realize they are only pissed off because of evil white males like Shakespeare and Beethoven.

Zombies can't compose, they can only decompose, so life is so totally unfair to them.  And they're dead, which is another strike against life.  Why can't life be distributed equally to the living and the dead?

And living people deserve to get their brains eaten for flaunting their living at the zombies. Plus, zombies are good Democrats /DU Zombie mode

Zombies can be frozen but they can come back from that again.  Zombies can also walk under water and fight sharks as Fulci teaches us in Zombi 2.  And as we see in Zombi 4, zombie heads can fly out of refrigerators so the zombi holocaust is just like Global Warming(TM), unstoppable and all mankind's fault.  If we would just quit dying, it would severely limit the number of zombies.

Zombies can be temporarily distracted with fireworks. They like fireworks for some reason.

Global Warming(TM) + zombi holocaust = A really bad smell.

OK, thats a movie I missed.
A girl with a machine gun for a leg? Thats not a combo I've quite encountered yet.

If you treat her nice on a date...will she let you, reload?
If you kiss her, and she lets off a few rounds, does that mean she likes you? or was it the chili?

Planet Terror it was part of the Grindhouse double feature that came out the Easter of 2007.  It's pretty good if you like exploitation films.  I kind of liked Death Proof better, which surprised me, usually I prefer zombies to car chases but the car chase in Death Proof was pretty good.  But the first hour of Death Proof is kind of dull.

I forgot all about this song until this thread.  Not really having much to do with classic movie zombies but just deal.
