The Great Zombie Debate!!
    #456488 - 08/07/10 06:25 PM (14 years, 5 months ago)

When the time comes, it is unclear what will bring this pain upon humanity. Pop culture and history have provided us with nearly endless scenarios as to the cause of their inevitable uprising. Below we will be going over some popular and widely excepted scenarios,
Zombie of Choice
You may choose only one

A Quick explanation of each...

Viral Zombies
This is perhaps the most common and widely accepted version of the zombie in existence. Basically, the “Zombie Virus” would spread from person to person via infected blood or a bite, cursing the victim to the same fate as their attacker. It is also possibly the scariest. Not because of what they are, but because it is probably the most real scenario for the inevitable day the world turns upside down. I say that because, in the present day world, there are already virus’s that do something similar. Take for example the Lyssa virus (rabies). This virus affects the central nervous system causing the infected subject to become disoriented, aggressive, partially paralyzed, and in some cases cannibalistic. The Virus is generally spread through infected, blood, nerves, and saliva, very similar to a zombie bite. There are several other Viral Zombie Scenarios that we will go over much more in depth in our summary of the viral zombie.

Parasitic Zombies
Similar in a way to viral zombies, parasitic zombies in turn are caused by a parasitic organism rather then a virus. Again, this is a very real possibility as similar parasites already exist in nature today. Parasites have one purpose in their lives, and that is to reproduce, and sometimes they take drastic measures to see that this happens. A very specific parasitic fungus found in the African rain forests, takes control of the brains of ants directing them upwards to the twigs and leaves above their colonies. Once above the colony, the parasite consumes the body of the ant and rains millions of spores on the colony dooming the rest of the colony to its fate. It is reasonable to assume that a similar parasite may one day exist in humans and be spread through mucus membranes or a zombie bite. Several other theories exist on the possibility of parasitic zombies and can be found in our summary of the parasitic zombie.

Toxic Zombies
This is a very broad classification. The term Toxic Zombie refers to zombies that are created by some form of poor human habit. Some common examples of toxic zombies would be zombies that are created from an accidental chemical spill, or buried radioactive or nuclear waste. This type of zombie is more or less considered purely science fiction. Granted, radiation has been known to cause random forms of mutation and defects, although it is highly unlikely (however possible) that radiation could cause ordinary people to become a form of zombie. Toxic Zombies would be a fairly dangerous form of zombie to faced with, because their very creation is usually a mystery and questionable in nature, making it hard to come up with a proper counter strategy. To read more about theories and information on the Toxic Zombie, please read our full toxic zombie article.

Supernatural Zombies
Supernatural zombies are by far the most dangerous of all the various zombie types. These are creatures that have been created by some form of supernatural means, simply meaning that they don't have to adhere to the most basic physical laws that govern our world. Supernatural zombies are in essence the true “walking dead”. They are reanimated corpses brought forth by some powerful “evil force” to rain chaos on humanity. There are an almost infinite number of scenarios that pose the potential to create supernatural zombies. Anything from demonic possession and dark rituals to passing comets and solar eclipses, basically anything that can’t be explained by conventional science. In the famous words of 1978s “Dawn of the Dead”, “When there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth.” To find out more information about Supernatural zombies please read our in-depth summary.

Supernatural zombies have been around in Haitian and/or Voodoo rituals for a long time

there are also parasites that turn insects into real life zombies

and look up the "zombie drug" there are news reports of a drug that can turn people into zombies to be used as accessories in crimes

i chose supernatural zombies.
those are the sariest to me, and the thing that would most likley happen.




I like supernatural zombies too.
Zombie movies have moved away from them though and as a result the other zombie types have been fleshed out :rimshot:

but as far as I'm concerned even though they may be slow ambling brain seeking corpses their shear numbers make them a bigger threat than the other types

thanks to this thread i had a horrible nightmare about zombies last night.





:awehigh:
I really wish I still got nightmares,
to me it's interesting as hell dissecting it the next morning.

but it sound like you could use some cheering up
So, just for you
I wrote a zombie haiku
a simple poem
from the dead's point of view
... and without furter adieu

Brains, BRAINS, BRains, brains, BRAINS.
BRaiNS, brains, Brains, BRAINS, BRains, brains, BRAINS.
BRAINS, BRains, brains, BRAINS, brains.

...This thread has crawled away from zombies and into the land of dreams.

so in an effort to redirect this thread back to the undead
while still maintaining friendly relations and positive lines of communications....

Do you think zombies dream of decaying sheep?

I just started reading a book...


I'm not far enough into it to give any feed back
but the idea of zombie literature excites me

Being prepared for zombies is a survival necessity but...
If popular culture has taught us anything,
it is that someday mankind must face and destroy the growing robot menace.

viral zombie + chainsaw = :awesurprise:

the best way to handle a viral zombie would be to treat them like they have aids.

don't fuck them, don't share needles, and don't let them nom your brain.
and when possible dispose of them as quickly and cleanly as possible.

I trust you'd have an escape plan in case your perimeter got breached
and the lower floors became compromised

Can't convince a buddy to join you in karaoke? No worries!
A Zombie never suffers from stage fright!
Need to negotiate a new cell-phone contract?
Bring a Zombie along to get out of the two-year commitment (he can strong-arm the sales rep - that is, unless it's missing).
Sure, Zombies may have rotting flesh and nasty viruses, but don't we all have our faults?
Open your mind and open this book for inspired ideas on how we can all learn to get along.
Monstrous fun awaits with 501 Things to Do with a Zombie.

the first half (the rhyming part)
I came up with spur of the moment

the second half (the haiku)
While looking for zombie literature I had found these books:


and combined the ideas
