Zombie ?'s

[mmmbeans]

your standards were set too high...

Great flick to just sit back and enjoy. I will say I enjoyed the first half more than I did the part post-Bill Murray, but it has to end somewhere.

As far as the questions go...any open wound/orifice-blood interaction could cause infection. Your teeth roots/gums are direct lines to bloodstreams. If you breathe in aerosoled blood and you breathe it in somehow. If the zombie was a virgin or menstruating...infection. May happen anyway due to the fact that there's even slight tissue damage even during regular sex that might cause blood to leak out (might not be a problem for small penis dudes).

Zombies can't drown, but they won't walk along the bottom of the sea floor either. No Pirates of the Carribean casual walk out...they'd be awdwardly floating around thrashing about with no real swimming motion. Pretty easy to pick off.

Zombies can't starve, but I can see one deterioting/rotting to the point of non-movement. I think if the zombie apocolypse comes, you really only have to worry about the recently dead and recently infected...almost 28 days later-esque. None of this hands coming out of the graves nonsense. More of a rage-virus that wants you to rips someone's face off....like monkeys want to do.

1st half was fun, second half was a preteen love story with a mediocre zombie killing montage. I'll take shawn of the dead any day of the week.

Truth.

Is Zombieism a disease or a spiritual phenomenon?

B/c if they are still "living" then they will need basic elements to survive, i.e. water(or blood), air to breathe (which if they are in water, they drowned). If you have to severe the nerve in their brain, then that tells me that their brain is functioning, which means there is life.....

But if it was a spiritual phenomenon, then technically nothing should kill them (including destroying the brain). So if you cut off the head, then the body runs around and the head moves.

that's why I think there could never be a dead-life zombie...more like a rage virus that makes everyone freaking bloodthirsty and running around killing. Kinda like Serenity dudes...or 28days like.

But you must prepare for anything.

Columbus' rules apply obviously.

Do people actually believe in zombies?

I do, I have to deal with some of them every day.
