Sprinter zombies make zombie movies way more intense

Because running is way more strenuous than walking, and severely-diseased people & corpses aren't known for their coordination.

the first zombie movie where i thought i'd be completely fucked instead of the usual
>oh i can survive there, just dont be a fatass that can't run faster than 2mph lol
they run at a full sprint, the kind of run you do when something dangerous is chasing you. even a racing run isnt that fast, the type of speed you have when shit's on the line would impress usain bolt, and that type of zombie would just have me fall to the floor and wait for death

I don't think the zombies have the capability of thinking about saving their energy, makes more sense that they would throw themselves at their prey. stumbling around and shit if need be, as fast as they physically could.

Right, but this only makes sense while they have energy, which they'd eventually run out of, but yet in zombie movies they're walking/running around for months as if they're immortal regardless of having eaten anything or not.

Do you guys think we'll ever get a proper "Crossed" adaptation that isn't watered down? If it had the feel/vibe of the "Wish You Were Here" arc, it would probably come off better written than just gratuitous torture gore porn. That Patient Zero movie came close to it

>people laud 28 Days for being "realistic" for a zombie flick
>the zeds take a fucking month for dehydration and exhaustion to start noticeably thinning their numbers

Undead zombies wouldn't be able to run for long because the tendons in their ankles wouldn't last. I think in the Dawn of the Dead remake and the Walking Dead the zombies start out running fast, then gradually slow down. Slow zombies aren't that much of a threat.

No. Rape is off the table in Hollywood in current year.

Weren't those things in Firefly/Serenity basically rape space pirates? The ravagers I think they were called?

Eh I mean it's still a zombie movie but where I give 28 Days Later credit is that it actually tries to have it make sense ya know? Like these zombie type things actually have finite energy.

It always baffled me how The Walking Dead zombies could overrun society. Seems like they'd be pretty easily dispatched.

I can't see any network that would do it.. Unless the porn industry takes a crack at it? Like there's a porn version of Pirates that's supposed to be pretty good, and I've also seen screenshots of porn Avengers where the costumes actually look closer to what they're supposed to be in the comics.

Technically they weren't zombies though.

Erhm, they aren't zombies, just feral humans, they can still eat, drink, piss and shit. Realistically it would probably take more than a month to thin them out.

Firefly was made before #MeToo and Weinstein, which later burned Joss Whedon. Rape is taboo in the industry at the moment. Only feature I could see getting made is a rape & revenge movie and that wouldn't work for Crossed.

You're right. Unless it's a living person in a trance under the spell of a voodoo witch doctor, it isn't a real zombie. lol

Pretty sure they’re too busy running around and being super pissed off to eat or drink though

Zombies with guns are more badass

I will never get enough of the eastern europe/russian dystopian atmosphere in video games.

The problem with running zombies is no one believes you could ever survive against one, not without getting bit and infected, much less a horde of them.

They're only effective over short distances. It the marathon zombies you have to watch out for.

actually it's polevaulting zombies that are the most dangerous

>basically rape space pirates?
Firefly/Serenity is Western is space. They ere Indians.
Whedon admited it "Every story needs a monster. In the stories of the old west it was the Apaches"

you know what i hate about zombies in modern movies? they always scream. gone are the subtle, eerie groans. nope, constant ear rape screeching

>Sprinter zombies make zombie movies way more intense.
I hate fast zombies so much.

There seriously should be a zombie movie riffing on all this set at the summer Olympics.

I mean it's basically plants vs. zombies. All they're missing is mole zombie and zamboni zombie.

Not a zombie genre. They're living people who can die by normal means, they even starve to death.

I don't think zombies are meant to be "intense" though, like fast animals, they are meant to be creepy and dreadful. They literally represent death in the human subconscious, which is a slow and creeping thing that is out of view but inevitable. The idea of a horde of slow moving zombies that, no matter what you do, will eventually swarm and kill is true zombie kino.

That's a given

Great movie btw

Best not look for logic in zombie movies. The only two possibilities are advanced technological intervention, or a supernatural force. What that thing might be is much more fascinating than zombies themselves.

I like the mushroom hypothesis.

The conversation thread was about feral humans as zombies you fucking nerd.

yeah exactly, sprinter zombies might as well just be anything, wild animals, angry people, aliens. Only the creeper zombie has the full effect of "ha this isn't really that dangerous, let my guard down OH FUCK!!"

^this man is correct.

The best scene of that was in Dawn of the Dead (1978) where they shot skeet (and mannequins), ate fine dining, played hoops, golf, read books, played record albums, and even relaxed in a fully loaded arcade. Nothing will be that level of comfiness, although Phantasm II tried hard when all the living characters were together near the fireplace, preparing for the Tall Man.

Zombies are living people under the spell of a voodoo witch doctor. Night of the Living Dead isn't zombie genre.

Romero changed-altered-broadened the genre, user. He literally is the father of undead zombies.

There's no such thing as undead zombies. Only voodoo zombies are real zombies. Undead "zombies" are about as much real zombies as fast "zombies" are. WE MUST KEEP THE GENRE PURE NO WITCH DOCTOR NO ZOMBIES

The thinking man's zombie film has both. Recently deceased can break out into a full sprint while those that've been dead for a while shamble along from all the rot they've suffered.

Brendan Gleeson in 28 Days Later had a nice idea; put on some protective gear and clear a high-rise room by room. The average apartment block is going to have a sturdy security door. You've got yourself a fortress against the undead and basically invisible to other survivors. You could live off the contents of people's kitchens for months. The biggest danger is missing a zombie somewhere though, there's so many hiding places.

Nigger, do you not remember Tar Man? One of the most famous zombie kinos ever had zombies that didn't ever stop screaming at the top of their lungs.

^Get a load of this salty Haitian collection of twigs.

He really should have stayed there for another month or so. Most of the infected would be dead by then and he could probably stretch his supplies. Instead he died and his daughter got JIMMED

I think they played with that idea at the beggining of TWD, I remember zombies even climbing fences and the directors discussing the idea...shame they dropped it, would have added to the "realism" and would have added an interesting dimension to the series

Running doesn't bother me, but it should be with one that just got bitten, specially if you subscribe to the school of thought that zombies don't have the limiters we have on our bodies so they use up ridiculous amounts of strength to the point their muscles/limbs break apart.

Zombie's who've been that way a week should already be slowing down.

I'd like to see a Crossed style zombie film where the zombies have a basic level of intelligence. Maybe not full on edgelord turbo rapists but smart enough to set traps and use bait. Supernatural croatoan were like that.

I haven't seen twd since S1, but in the comics, the whisperers are a kind of zombie cult that wear their skin. Normal humans besides that though

There were plenty of movies like that made in the 70s and 80s

>actual fucking and relationships from zombies.
There is a film like that about. Can't remember what is called but zombies go to school with normal people and a girl falls for one of the zombies.

A zombie movie spanning several months or years where the zombies started out fast and sprinters but gradually became slower and more rotten because of the decomposition and muscle loss would be kino

Well, just look at Romeror's "of the Dead" series. In Dawn, the zombies' sheer numbers simply overwhelm the survivors so they retract to a shopping mall, and then have to deal with a biker gang. I'd guess the challenge would be both then, as you said. Most zombie movie's I've seen have slow zombies, and they always gave the survivors trouble

Thanks fren. Are they any good?

Why a highrise when you could target a mall?

Warm bodies might be what you're thinking of, or it's at least similar. Pretty decent movie and they work the premise well.

I feel like the mall is too obvious for long term living. I mean make an occasional supply run there, but I'd like to avoid potentially running into survivalist nuts with the same idea.

Do you anons have a zombie-contigency plan ? Is it detailed or do you just have a general idea what you want to do ?

watch "I am a Hero", it literally has a zombie that practices a jump over and over because it was a former athlete or something

i remember i used to do that with friends in school, fun times

my favourite part of any zombie movie is the (usually) first ten to twenty minutes where it focuses on the day to day tasks of how they survive, and different takes on it
where they're sheltered, how they're getting food, water - if they're trading, their security all that survival stuff.
then it all ends as the actual movie happens

am i autistic

Yes, but that doesn't mean you're wrong. It's much harder for a writer to craft a working post apocalyptic lifestyle than it is to write a bunch of people screaming and getting bitten

I'd like to see a zombie movie where the survivors have a basic level of intelligence, eg step 1 immediately acquire full motorcycle leathers, gloves, boots, helmet, the lot. I don't give a shit how fucking hungry they are, they can't bite through leather. I win.

There is nothing you'd really need in a mall, and it'd be too obvious.

I’ve gone over it in my head a million times. I’ve come to the conclusion that the only way I can survive is if I start doomsday prepping and possibly build a shelter underground or like a panic room. The biggest threat will come from other survivors when they get hungry. Unless it’s fast zombies. Then everyone is fucked. I could go on about this all day..

No I'm the same. In many films I feel that the plot gets in the way because it's often so clumsily handled. I just want more cool survival shit. Early-middle part of films are usually my favourite, then I just have to accept that the rest will be a threat followed by resolution followed by epilogue. Of course I don't mean all or even most films, just those that have weak plots but great small moments and atmosphere.

Until the zombies start spitting blood and shit that does the infecting. I think i might rewatch 28 Days Later tonight

I don't give a shit what they're spitting

Return of the Living Dead probably has the most intense zombies out there even if they're played for laughs sort of, they have retained their ability to speak, have enough intelligence to set and create trapsand use tools, are borderline unkillable unless you have something to completely destroy them, also I find the idea that they're after brains because it's the only thing that eases their perpetual state of pain disturbing

Attached: giphy (1).gif (499x234, 962K)

Stock up as best I can and head out of town immediately. Break into isolated homes for supplies to minimize the chance of getting overwhelmed. I figure a smallish sledgehammer from a hardware store would be an ok weapon until I find a farmer's shotgun or can somehow break into a police/army armoury (noguns land). Assuming the power grid is working indefinitely as is usually the case in zombie movies, use an electric car so that I can get about without noise attracting zombie attention. Long term not sure, you'd have plenty of time to figure that out and weigh options though.
Yeah, motorcycle leathers would be invaluable.

Nope. Not even on Netflix or HBO or redline DVD media. It would always be watered down. They might let them say cunt a bunch or come up with some simulated brain fucking or whatever, but they won't ever go whole hog. I could maybe see them doing the dolphin fucking from WYWH, but only if it was dead.

>worrying about the logistics in a fantasy setting

I think it depends on context. If it's legitimate "living dead" I think it's retarded to have them sprinting around while their bodies are half rotten and their muscles are falling off. They should be shambling if their bodies literally cannot support that sort of activity. But if it's like 28 days later and they're basically just psychos with rabies, I get it.

the only issue is that traditionally, zombie stories aren't so much about zombies as about the survivors and the problems people face with each other, with the backdrop of zombies. But in movies with "runner zombies", they're much more lethal and dangerous on their own, so those stories end up putting much more focus on simply staying alive against the zombies rather than interpersonal issues.

>Also fuck this scene I don't know why but of all the things in that movie the bisected Dog always stuck with me

Depends on when I find out and the extremity of the outbreak. I live in a nice suburb that's not gated but surrounded by wooded areas and forest preserves.

Best case scenario in my mind is to board up the house (which unfortunately has several points of entry,) and bug out in the basement for as long as I can get updates on the situation. The basement requires escape points, so there's three ladders to the surface at the windows, which could be a good or bad thing. There's a big shopping center a mile or two away that has a Target, LL Bean, many restaurants, and most importantly, a Cabela's. It's a calculated risk, but that's obvious the best place to go to stock up on supplies and weapons (specifically guns.) There's also a modest sized arena not too far away that could potentially serve as a stronghold.

If I could activate a car, there are actually several malls in the area, one big one that would likely get overrun immediately, and a few smaller/dying ones that could maybe be viable. I just think too many people would try and go that route, and there would be too much of a wildcard factor with so many points of entry. And really, if you have a group of more than about a dozen like in the Dawn films, you're looking at draining supplies rapidly.

One thing that always kinda bugged me was that they never go after each other. They always instinctively go after the uninfected and ignore their fellow infected. Which doesn't make total sense if they're so crazed that they want to rip apart and eat anything living (or at least moving.)

You can argue pack mentality, but even a hundred wolves grouped together will have infighting, especially if hunger is a factor.

Yeah, that's always bothered me. You could chalk it up to them avoiding other zombies due to smell, but it doesn't fix the issue of them not fighting for the meat.

Of all things, Z nation brought up the fact that if zombies got hungry enough, they'd eat each other.

Write the screenplay user.

Yeah, they made a real horror movie that was also a comedy, a true rarity.

>what a zombie movie isn't supposed to be

i get that RtoLD zombies are more terrifying but head shotted zombie fodder is just loads of fun

>Jump scares
True, but Dawn of the Dead 1978 had jump scares. Jump scares are ok if the rest of the movie otherwise employs legitimate techniques to tell a scary story.

I love both types as long as the story caters to each of their strengths. I couldn't imagine Night of the Living Dead working with fast infected as the interplay between characters was key. However the remake of Dawn of the Dead made the substitution and was good, but in a different way to the original. But like most people I mentally class the sprinters as 'infected' rather than pure zombie.

>I don't see the problem of making zombies just feral humans
The problem is if you could quantify a feral human, they would still go for the quickest most effective way with their limited intellect to satisfy their biological imperatives - eat, fuck, shelter - compete & survive

If you made a movie about what a theoritical feral human virus would do, it would be a movie with 90% brutal rape, 10% killing.
Feral humans wouldn't even see all the uninfected as threats unless there was some hivemind thing going on with the virus

Serenity went straight to the point about what the Ravagers were, they were not totally dissimilar to the infected in Crossed

Based.

No zombie movie has shit me up ever since. Fuck, even the emotional scenes too.

I know....I just want one more and not to end like that pile of shit 28 Weeks Later. It deserved better than that.

It would probably be a lot of initial chaos of zombies slaughtering each other while frightened humans try to slip by them unnoticed. Arguably more tense than the zombies all chasing them.

zombies are fucking stupid, anyone who is enthusiastic about this subgenre of horror is probably low IQ

Verticality is a major plus here, and in a highrise you have sound insulation from the hordes at street level as well as the ability to barricade a floor provided it isn't an open feeder stairwell design. Zeds generally aren't going to go poking around in buildings as a full horde.

Malls have WAAAY too many open sightlines for people with guns, and:

Most malls don't have grocery stores
Most food in malls is in vending machines, restaurants & the Food court and need to be prepared on commercial kitchen ware where you generally one kitchen door away from a register/area open to the mall

Sporting goods and tool stores in malls tend to be limited to shit like Dicks and Sears.
Dicks only sells bolt action rifles and shotguns and has limited ammo selection, and will likely be looted, Sears and similar stores have waay too many places for a zed to hide.
The only other truly useful thing in a mall is a pharmacy.

I'd avoid your local mall and go straight to your local national guard armory

Semantics

Have there been any movies where zombies/infected talk or scream like humans? I know The Return did it. 28 Days had some subtle parts of such a thing. It always creeps me out.

I could never suspend my disbelief long enough to accept that slow zombies would pose enough of a threat to dissolve an entire nation into anarchy. This is exacerbated by the characters mentioning other zombie media as reference for dealing with them. I would say a slow zombie infestation in a 1st world country would be dealt with relative ease and last around 1 -2 weeks as long as they aren'y deadite tier.

To be fair, the first one was passable but it all went to dog shit after that.

the first one sucked compared to the second one.

Unless the zombies are dealt with quickly, I think society would be fucked even with just slow zombies. Our modern infrastructure is complicated and interconnected. Even a slight disruption would be catastrophic resulting in loads of people dying just from lack of basic services. A plague of the living dead that disrupts the whole world for even just half a year would be really, really bad. Another reason the zeds would have to be dealt with quickly is just how hard it is to kill them. We just don't have the manpower. Modern militaries are relatively small and most composed largely of support personnel. 1 combat person to 7 or 8 support is the ratio I believe. Of those combat persons, most are not marksmen and thus would have considerable difficulty getting a headshot on a moving target in a stressful situation. Could they be trained to do so? Most likely yes, but as I mentioned earlier time is of the essence when dealing a zombie apocalypse in the making. Once the zombies have spread to every corner of the globe, it's already too late. At that point, the best most militaries could do would be to bunker down with their families and isolate themselves as much as possible.

This, once the power goes out we're severely fucked and it'll take months to achieve what could be done in weeks if the power stayed on.

This is a factually correct statement and it checks out.

I think George Romero makes shit films.

You'd need to start with the questionable premise that your survivors have a reliable, instant LoS test for being a thing to have a movie at all, and even then you're stretching the credibility that such an apocalypse would be survivable at all by anyone. With that much biomass at its disposal it would just katamari the whole planet in days.

Sprinter zombies don't make sense if it's something like Romero's zombies, where they are reanimated corpses ready to fall apart. They don't have enough higher brain functions to use the muscles necessary to run as they're functioning on the reptilian lobe according to Day of the Dead.
Return of the Living Dead's zombies were able to run, tank everything except absolute incineration (and electricity at one point), as well as having much more higher brain functions, being able to talk.
It was more like an immortality disease that caused you to want to eat brains because being immortal was painful.
Every other subset of zombies doesn't matter and sucks.

unless the virus acts in seconds slow zombies are gonna get btfo especially in the us where there are more guns than people. I totally see it fucking up places like japan or any country without wide access to firearms though.

>the best most militaries could do would be to bunker down with their families and isolate themselves as much as possible.
if the military was still functional airstrikes can still be done, lure the majority of a horde into an area and hit it with incendiaries

I've always loved sprinters, though I've got a soft spot for slow-but-tough zombies like Day of the Dead.

That said Crazies' infected have grown on me alot over the years. I love both the original and the remake but holy fuck they still seem so creepy to me.

Crossed is fucking retarded. I'd rather read a hundred of the basically-toilet-paper Walking Dead comics than one issue of lele edgy guro xd

it just sucks that weeks got outsourced and was total shit
the intro is kino as fuck though

They're fun but it's the comedy aspect that keeps them from being all that interesting. There's not even a remotely pseudoscientific explanation as to how they could survive without brains, or how the chemicals could intelligently manipulate and give senses to individual organs. That's fine, the movie makes no attempt to because it doesn't need to, but it keeps it at cool B-flick and not engrossing zombie horror.

Shooting a moving person in the head is hard. Even more so in a stressful situation. I seriously doubt most people Americans could do it. Make the target a loved one and the shooter is basically already dead. And by the time Joe Schmoe is shooting zombies in his front yard, it's already too fucking late. The system has collapsed. No one's shipping food. No one's manning our power stations. The local hospital ran out of supplies days ago if they've haven't already been overrun. Society has collapsed and zombies are the least of his problems.
Planes require a surprising amount of fuel and the military doesn't have infinite munitions. Fuck, most western militaries (besides 'Murica I guess) barely have enough on hand for a few weeks worth of offensive operations. That shit is very expensive.

Even with a plethora of munitions, most aren't going to be the type you want for zombies. The US military isn't built to fight zombies. It's not planning its future around firebombing hordes of flesh-eating cannibals. It's preparing to fight other militaries. That means lots of anti-vehicle weapons and not incendiaries.

I'm not saying the militaries of the world would be completely helpless. They have the skills and tools to wipe out traditional zombies very quickly. If they knew the zombies were coming and they could prepare, they would definitely do so. Otherwise, they don't have nearly enough of either on hand at the moment for a full scale zombie outbreak. Which is why mentioned it would be so important the zombies be contained quickly.

Humans being infected with some kind of rabies shit where they can still run around makes way more sense instead of the weird ass necrotic voodoo magic disease in shit like TWD tbqh

a proper thing remake or ripoff would be fuckin prime right now

Dude, a zombie outbreak in the Olympic village is actually a pretty fucking great idea.

I'm a zoomer so zombies to me were always fast like in left 4 dead and 28 days later. When I watched the walking dead for the first time as a child I actually thought it was weird that the zombies were slow and dead people instead of being fast and infected people.

>Shooting a moving person in the head is hard.
not if they're plinking from a mile away, you're only assuming that the people doing the shooting are doing a last stand or are cornered. as I said unless the zombie virus acts in seconds it's not gonna spread fast enough to replace lossess, you don't need to land all headshots, high powered rounds will tear off limbs and cut bodies there are tons of options of handling a slowly walking "horde".

Yeah now that I think about it, the fast and ferocious zombies could basically be just people infected with a kind of rabies.

What about shit like the crazies with infected people who are intelligent and can use guns and shit.

Also it had a based and redpilled incest cunny rape scene that I wanked off to as a teen

>The US military isn't built to fight zombies
unlike in the movies, fucking everyone knows how to handle zombies in the real world and again you're assuming that the infection actually got around to be THAT huge and at that point, they'd be using tac nukes

Zombies already outnumber normal humans 10000 to 1 and they never rest

making them fast is overkill

they shouldn't drop to the ground because an old woman pushed a screwdriver into their head like in TWD

Depends on your idea of intense. Personally I always found the slow, inevitable creep of death far more terrifying. Night of the Living Dead made me feel far worse shit than the Dawn remake. Re-Dawn felt like a cheap action flick in comparison.

>I don't see the problem of making zombies just feral humans
Then they wouldn't be zombies.

I think the real question is, why would you WANT a faithful adaptation of a comic as pitifully shit as any of the Crossed arcs?
There might be enough braindead manchildren out there to support Ennis's comics (or not, considering most of them get cancelled), but to recoup the cost of a tv show, you need to get a broader range of people watching.
That means you need a who raft of story changes like characters with more than one dimension, dialogue that doesn't read like it was lifted from a shadow the hedgehog fanfic, plots that makes sense etc.
Faithful adaptations of this sort of trash just aren't economically viable.

Well played

(OP) #
Slow zombies represent the doughy mass of unintelligent NPC tier people currently swamping brilliant individuals with their mediocrity. As such, slow zombies are a comment on contemporary society as a whole.
‘Fast’ zombies are for people too fucking stupid to understand the point above, and who just want to watch meaningless, acontextual garbage while shoving fistfuls of greasy popcorn into their gaping, slobbering maws.
In other words, slow zombies are for smart people who appreciate kino about the metaphorical danger of stupid people, and fast zombies are for the kind of people who are effectively slow zombies themselves. It all has a delightful irony about it.

You wrote 'intense' but you meant 'bad'.

If that's the game you insist on playing, Romero came along and famously redefined the zombie genre; the makers of 28D and 28W openly stated that it was not a zombie film and remind you as much all the way through the director's commentary. Don't be argumentative for the hell of it, you know exactly what he was saying.

You seriously think it would be easy to get a headshot on a moving target from a mile away? Okay internet warrior, let's see you do it. A browning would be enough to cripple a zed sure, but I'm kind of doubting the ability of it to do so against a horde of millions. It'd be like shooting into a giant 1 mile long tub of jello.
Yes, because knowing how to theoretically do something equals being to do it under stressful and timed conditions. And I highly doubt the military would use nukes even if they knew they were losing against zombies. After all, they could just wait out the zeds and reclaim the cities later without destroying them.

And I didn't assume anything about the time scale. All I said was that if the infection wasn't dealt with quickly, society would collapse shortly. It wouldn't matter if the zeds were fast, slow, or anything in between. Any sort of global disruption is going to cause our modern society to come crashing down. That will be what causes most people to die. Mundane disease, starvation, and good old human on human violence.

why do you always assume it's under stressful and timed conditions? as I said it really depends on how fast the virus acts and what kind of zombie you're dealing with, fast zombies would easily overrun areas but slow moving zombies would be a non issue

Tbh 28 days later zombies are the least frightening since they’re so easy to kill. They just die from normal gunshots. Set up a kill zone and you’re Gucci.

Romero zombies are unironically more intimidating, you have any idea how hard it is to land a headshot on a bobbing target?

>Yes, because knowing how to theoretically do something equals being to do it under stressful and timed conditions.
the only reason slow zombies even get that far in the movies and comics is because somehow no one in those worlds know about zombies. In a real life scenario slow dumb zombies would be so easy to lure it's not funny not to mention about the thousands of rednecks and apocalypse larpers just waiting for said scenario to occur. sure there would be chaos in the initial stages but it would get quickly contained once everyone gets their shit together unless the virus was airborne and not strictly spread thru bites

Citizen Z/Black Summer universe have a noce compromise. Recent zombies run fast and are very active but as they get older they turn slow and dull.

That's why in Black Summer it's a fucking nightmare to survive and it's understandable even the military gets overrun and why, years later, the few survivors are doing pretty fine except when other humans or mutations are involved

I really hope this b8

No, because the slow walking zombies are like the unstoppable tide of time, sure you can avoid death and cheat it many times, quite easily. But eventually you will most likely slip up. You'll get yourself into a jam you can't actually get out of, and then you die.

nah the foreplay is my favorite part too. of most horror movies

voodoo, necromancy, whatever. something magic based.

for me its demonic zombies, zombies where they are the product of something supernatural and where you can see a sadness in their eyes a human trapped there sad that he has to eat human flesh, sad that he is a slave to something not of this world

Give it to the Canadians they make some sick garbage. Crossed is written by an edgy sperg anyway I can't see how it would turn a profit as a movie.

just another "kill your children" propaganda from Hollywood

>Shooting a moving person in the head is hard
The military use assault rifles capable of burst-fire. Hitting anything with a three round burst from a reasonable distance is piss easy for anyone who's been trained to hit a target.

F-fact?

>because knowing how to theoretically do something equals being to do it under stressful and timed conditions
Boxing adrenaline and hitting a target under duress is quite literally exactly what military personnel are trained for.

I'm not arguing for the hell of it. It genuinely pisses me off when ignorant people try to pedantically restrict the definition of "zombie" to Romero zombies because they don't understand the history of the genre or the way fiction works. By the way, do you really think Romero invented Romero zombies?

how about a prequel? 28 hours laster? Oh wait they did it was a dvd extra.

I want a zombie movie where they take this metaphorical aspect to the next level. The grave is unescapable. The grave is closer every day.

But the grave is also silent.

I want zombies that make no noise besides the shuffling of their feet. Fuck all this moaning and groaning and vocalizing. There's no reason they'd even be breathing.

>things become more intense when they are faster

No shit OP. Your mom would also be more intense too if she was faster.

I hated that they pretty much dropped that aspect. The thought that fresh zombies were still basically people functioning on an instinctual level was cool. Fresh dead climbing fences, opening doors, and using rudimentary tools was a nice change of pace.

Not him, but there's a type of fungus that preys on jungle ants by essentially hijacking their brains and making them climb to the highest place they can reach before dying. That's where the fungus releases its spores for the widest dispersion.

The mushroom idea with zombies is similar. It's a fungal infection that hijacks the brain.

>Hitting a moving target in the head is easy
>3 round burst function ever being used
You have literally no idea what you're talking about.

I genuinely hope they remake some Z Nation arcs with the style/production values of Black Summer. I could never get through a ZN ep without laughing.

The Romero zombies are officially a mystery. It is suggested that maybe radiation did it, but it's also suggested that they don't really know that.

It does but making the point about zombies themselves is misguided. Any good zombie movie instead focuses on the insanity of the situation and the growing hopelessness of long
term survival in it.

Cordyceps. It affects caterpillars more than ants.
It’s pretty unlikely anyone would survive that, yes. But the idea that someone can reliably drop a moving person with a headshot at 150-200 yards, even using a three round burst, is laughable.
I grew up shooting on a farm and was one of the best shots in my rifleman IET (300 soldiers in that course) and I’d only pull something like that off maybe one time in three.

Wasn't The Last of Us something like that?

>unless the virus acts in seconds
If that were the case, it wouldn't spread far. For the virus to affect more than a localised area, it needs to have an incubation period of at least a few hours. If people turn into zombies as soon as they get infected, it won't even reach the next town. For a widespread outbreak to occur, people need to be able to board a plane, or drive to the next town, etc. while infected.

I'm down.

You could feasibly have zombies running while they're still fresh, before slowing to a shamble over the course of a few days. Or have deceptively quick zombies that shamble, but lurch when they're within several yards.

fast acting virus+fast zombies would definitely be the way to go. I've handled late stage rabies patients and I can legit see how fast zombies would be able to overwhelm military and civilian centers
>For a widespread outbreak to occur, people need to be able to board a plane, or drive to the next town, etc. while infected.
only if it's asymptomatic and considering that most zombie viruses are spread by bites you're not gonna get a lot of infectees even if an infected individual dies in the middle of a crowded street you'd get a dozen or so at best infected people
