That rings a bell, same for another extra clip of the 'Survival Video' that a guy makes detailing how to handle a Zack; he has a female Zack charge him and then demonstrates the take-down. Kinda broke the fourth wall for me, the entire YouTube-ish manner in which it was shown. Anybody see Diary of the Dead? There's an amish guy in that one, he does this scene with TNT, lol, that alone was worth throwing up due to motion sickness. Here it is, actually: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1SmgB37NAkEdited by Orca*, Aug 20 2009, 12:35:18 PM.

I have a high threshold for B movies: I usually like them alot. I got through it, but it was slow, like cloverfield, but it had some good moments. Like Samuel. lol |

@Orca: I think it was in the same string of videos as the one you described. And I liked Diary of the Dead- that scene had me rolling the first time I saw it. EDIT: lol I'm the same way with B movies. It drives Soriddo crazy. Edited by Ewok, Aug 20 2009, 12:47:38 PM.

Well that part was hilarious, who'd the fuck expect it to grab a stick of tnt? Never trust a amish-man.

@Sad — I know it was RE4 all over again! "What the hell is he hold- SHIT SHIT SHIT!" lol XD Totally wasn't expecting it. @Ewok — It still cracks me up. B movies are just more entertaining I think, at least they usually give me more than an A-lister does. I'm trying to find Jennifer's Body online — it looks like a B-title from the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYQ19JM_M1g

Are you still human?

This scenario was performed with the idea that zombies are slow, flesh eating bastards. Lets be honest here: we don't know what a zombie would be like. I for one think he wouldn't actually eat flesh coz he will be brain damaged. He'll just walk around clueless, fall over, limbs waving all over the place, his first thought wouldn't be 'wheres the nearest snack' but just 'uuurgh!' |

Diary of the Dead was pretty bad. It had nothing to do with it being a B-movie, but everything to do with the fact that it was about 20% zombie movie and 80% stupid teen drama with really bad "social commentary" that lacked any degree of subtlety. Hopefully Romero will do better with Island of the Dead. And the idea behind zombies eating flesh is that all that's left in them are basic instincts, such as the instinct to eat. I'm personally a fan of the Day of the Dead theory that that's the only reason that they eat, and that their bodies don't actually digest anything they eat. |

Yeah Diary and Land sucked for the most part. The original trilogy is still where it's at. I've been waiting on some kind of trailer for Island as it sounds like it has a half decent premise (although Land was the same but ended up sucking). @"Choke on 'em!" |

Eh, back on topic? May as well move this to the movies section...-_-'' Anyways, I think some of you are jumping to conclusions. Who knows if their work was even funded? Maybe they just thought about it before going to bed or something, who knows. It's pretty worthless seeing as they could be doing better things with their time... Like they say, get good grades in school and the rest of your life is set and easy...-_-'' What my parents say anyway. Edited by SolidSnake2012, Aug 20 2009, 06:35:29 PM.

There's only so much you can say about scientists talking about zombies before you start having to delve into zombie movies- I don't see what's off topic tbh. Every comment would be "This is stupid and they should use their time more wisely and usefully.".... /thread Also, you can get scientific funding for anything. This study shows that men prefer blondes. This study shows that skinny people hate fat people. This study shows that make up improves your brain by making you feel prettier. There's one that proves men prefer dating attractive girls over homely girls, (and even explains the "scientific process" that led to this discovery) but I can't find the link. =/ B movies and Zombie elitists aside, I've always wondered what type of zombie would be most likely. T-Virus? Rage? Land of the Dead zombies pumping our gas? Edited by Ewok, Aug 20 2009, 07:39:05 PM.

I feel like the modern virus scenario is the most likely (i.e. a virus spreads and "zombifies" people, like 28 Days Later, and we face fast, ferocious zombies). However, I prefer the old school "corpses coming back to life" type of zombie. |

I prefer that, too. Mostly because I wouldn't be able to take a speedy zombie. I'd be terrified enough without having to deal with a zombie that could catch me so easily. The only thing that would save me during a zombie outbreak is that I could outrun them. |

At least with 28 Days, you can wait it out until the fuckers starve. |

Be polite. Be efficient. Have a plan to kill everyone you meet.

This remembers me that the other night I saw an incredibly awful b-movie about these guys closed in a mental hospital who found this thermos which really contained a virus which was left by years ago when the military came to the same place which at the time was an hospital and killed all the victims of an epidemy which started back th- FORGET THIS, IT'S TOO DAMN AWFUL. |
Now what do I put here...
