I'd barricate a shoping center ( the ones with a costco, fast food, home depot and gas station.)
Do some stuff I want to but arn't allowed to do. ( you know what I mean)
And run out there with an army of chainsaw men. (No Im just kinding)
I'd really just wait till they stare them selfs out, dont know, probably about 1 or maybe 2 months.
Oh and of course save as many people in the region as I can so the zombies dont have food.
Once the zombies are cleared of the surrounding area, expand the
barricade border to another shopping center, ( well where i live there
are 2 shopping centers next to each other)
Just do that until the infestation has disapated

If you were to plan a long stay somewhere a prison would be good ... once you cleared it out.
Morphine, if you like GOOD zombie stories and comics, I have the comic for you: Walking Dead. If you buy it, buy trades, they're cheaper and have better paper. (If you want to buy it from a store, Borders is the only place that carries it .. sometimes. Otherwise get it from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or tfaw.com)
It's really good. It's mostly human drama, of course, since of course, the point of a zombie medium isn't zombies and if it is, then it's probably really bad. It goes the same for any other thing that can't be 'villianfied'. Like natural disaster movies ... it'd be actually a good movie if there was a person who stopped the information of the disaster since that would create tension and drama, and they'd be the antagonist.
Sharp, who says the infestation will disapate?
As for my 'series', I have no script yet. What we're planning on doing first is a short, which I have a story for. Plan on entering it in some inde-short festival in Portland or something. Taking the films they show there ... we'll have a good shot. (They're TERRIBLE).
My friend has access to some digital film and audio equipment from the Art Institute. We just have to gather formulate a plan and budget and we should be good to go. Shoot it in a couple days (On Mt. Hood. We want it to take place in Alaska during the equinox), cut it and do the effects. We'll probably have to greenscreen zombies in in a couple shots because we wont have enough people. Which shouldn't be too hard, we have all the equipment and software we need, so.
Oh yeah, speaking of equinox, there's a comic, called Barrows, or something, it's about Vampires in perpetual night. I don't know if it's any good, but it sounds like a sound idea to me.
Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

I'm really caught up with the idea of zombies right now. I'm sure it will pass, but I appreciate your recommendations.
I'm really interested in your short. You may be really protective
of your intellectual property, but I'd be interested to read some (or
all) of your storyline. I'm an English major. With a minor
in Film Studies. I don't make films myself, but I love watching
them.
Good luck doing that, and winning the festival.
If you ever want an opinion (one that's not involved in the process)
let me know. I'm a decently intelligent guy and I'd love to offer
feeedback on whatever you have to offer.

Yes, that'd be nice. Thanks. As long as you don't mind twenty miles of NDA agreements: we'll be good.

What about an honorable promise from a person you've only met on the Internet? :razz:
Well -- once its released and shown at the festival, I'd like to know what it's all about.

Unless you had a hardon when you died you wouldn't be able to bone.
No working heart to pump blood you see.
But... if you did have a hardon at the time of your death... rigor
mortis sets in and you're set for the rest of your... um... unlife.

My weapons of choice would be: Crow Bar, Hand Gun, Machine Gun (one that doesn't lock), Rifle of some sort. Would probably have a single shot rifle with burst ... You are aiming for their heads after all.
Crow Bar is about the most handy tool you could have. Stab, Twist, Shove, Pull, repeat.
Morphine, don't get too excited. I don't even have anything written nor time.
There's an interesting comic ... don't remember what it's called, but it deals with zombies as if they were animals. The first panel has a zombie banging a cow.
Also, if you think about it. The only way we'd really get 'over-run' is if it happened overnight or something like that. One thing that's good to know though, cemetaries are fairly safe. Even if the zombie was baried before it came back ... how would it get out? And most people avoid cemetaries, so chances are there'd be no one there. It'd be a nice place to rest for short amounts of time.
You'll lean more. Read the guide. It'll save your life.

It would be funny if the zombies weren't changed in the mind at all: They just couldn't die. Like in Idle Hands. Eventually everyone becomes a zombie by accident (like you have a sip of a zombies coke and BAM your a zombie) and can't reproduce, thus killing off our species just as much as zombies actually killing us. Slowly over time we all decay over time and become just piles of ass and dust.
Samurai Sword would be good, cause I've never fired a gun before in my life and as much as I'd like to think I could, I probably wouldn't be able to kick a lot of ass with a gun. Although I've never killed anyone witha sword either :S.
By the way, why don't zombies attack eachother again?

Depends on the universe the story is in. In Walking Dead, it's smell.
Something that'd make more sense is either, they do eat each other, or they have pharamones/hormones.

So when the zombie epidemic hits I've just got to smell like a dead rotting corpse? Sweet it could hit now and it wouldn't even effect me. :smile:
Calvin Kleins Essence of Zombie would be a hit.

I must say, all your ideas about having guns and swords and raw meat as weapons are pretty feeble.
If i was caught up with all these zombies i would go straight to the music shop and get me a JTM Stack amp. I would then load it onto the top of a car which a friend would drive. I would wait for lots and lots of zombies to come to me and then turn up my volume wheel. I would so awesomely that lighting would shoot of the headstock and fry all those zombie bastards to hell! MUAHAHAHA!!!
Just incase some of them didn't fry i would have a homemade laser cannon to burn some holes into them corpses.
