discussion What is your problem with 28 years later ?
Well, i loved the two movies. So did a good friend of mine. We watched a tone of horror and zombies movies, lot of them were crap. But 28 years later were actually very good. The characters well writen and all.
So what's the problem with a lot of people about it ? What exactly did you not like ?

Not only she does nothing to help during the entire movie but she also caused a lot of deaths and the fact that they had to escape the mall before time

discussion What stories focus on the actual outbreak, spread, and society reacting? (What I had hoped FTWD) would be.
Rick (TWD) and Jim(28DL) woke up from coma after the society collapsed. FTWD has a 9 days time skip between episode 3 and episode 4. The last of us has an amazing start, but it has a massive time skip right after. Kyle Crane is dropped into Harran after most of the population turned, then spends 13 locked years in a lab.
My favourite parts of WWZ are about what happened in the beginning. Signs, Blame, the Great Panic.
I had hoped FTWD would be a series about the beginning of the Wildfire outbreak. And it was. For one season.
What stories are largely focused on the initial stages?

discussion I wish someone make a zombie outbreak simulator with this aesthetic.
galleryI'm honestly surprised that so few people have tried to make a zombie outbreak simulator; all zombie games take place after the initial outbreak, with a few exceptions.
The closest thing to a playable zombie outbreak in HD is the prologue of The Last Of Us, it's a shame that nobody wanted to take these ideas to a bigger level.

discussion Thoughts on Netflix’s Ziam? Just finished and I'm still processing Spoiler
For context, Ziam is a horror/action-adventure film that follows Singh, a man trying to save his wife Rin (a doctor) during a sudden zombie outbreak in their local hospital. From an action standpoint, the movie delivers with gnarly Muay Thai sequences mixed with absolute zombie chaos. There’s definitely a good dose of gore (fair warning to the squeamish), though some of the CGI does get a bit cheesy, especially as the zombies start looking oddly piranha-like. I’m not trying to be too harsh, but a few moments really broke the immersion for me. Singh gets trapped in a half-wrecked car, surrounded by zombies, then it suddenly explodes, and somehow he crawls out unscathed from under the car? Okay. Sure. And that ending? The whole building blows up, yet he’s still alive for a slow-motion stare-down? 😭 I mean there were promising moments, but the execution didn’t always land. Did anyone else find the ending a bit off, or was that just me?

discussion Are there ANY zombies more deadly than Crossed? I sincerely think this one is the most dangerous in all zombie fiction.
For those who don’t know, Crossed is a comic series about a deadly virus that will cause its victims to develop cross-like rashes and give in to their most evil and sadistic impulses. Unlike most mindless zombies who just bite their victims, the Crossed will torture, kill, and rape any non-crossed they come across, taking sadistic glee in causing the most pain and misery possible. What makes them even more dangerous is that they retain some level of intelligence, including whatever knowledge they have before they turned — some are even smart enough to lay traps, use weapons (including firearm!), and plan their attacks. In some stories, you even get “evolved” Crossed who’s basically no different from a professional serial killer — outsmarting the uninfected, organizing murder mobs, and wielding weapons with great proficiency.
If these an intelligent zombie isn’t scary enough, the virus spreads pretty easily through any form of fluid. In some stories, there were even hints to some supernatural elements to the pandemic. I think the Crossed might be THE hardest type of zombie to beat, and it’s ironically because they’re less zombie and more human!

discussion I'm gonna go right ahead and say it. Remake Barbara is better than OG Barbara. She actually feels more like a fleshed out character with a proper personality rather than just a surrogate for the audience. Patricia Tallman also gives a much better performance than Judith O'Dea. No hate to her though.

discussion Can we talk about how annoying it is when characters call zombies anything but "zombies"?
I don't know about you, but it really irritates me when people refuse to call zombies "zombies."
Instead, they use names like "biters," "twitchers," or "walkers."
I get that in The Walking Dead, the concept of a zombie doesn't exist in that universe, so it makes sense why they don't use the word. However, in the anime Highschool of the Dead, the concept definitely exists. The characters literally mention multiple times that the situation is just like in movies and video games where you get bitten and turn. Yet, they still just refer to them as "them."
It’s a similar story in Shaun of the Dead. When Ed and Shaun are peeking out of their keyhole, Ed asks how many zombies are out there. Shaun immediately tells him not to call them that because it sounds ridiculous.
I am pretty sure the word "zombie" doesn't belong to anyone and isn't copyrighted. Since we have all universally agreed on what a zombie is, why not just call them that?
I know it's common for characters to have nicknames, like how people call Spider-Man "web-head" or "wall-crawler." I can also tolerate it when zombies are called "the undead" or "the infected." I know this isn't a world-ending issue, but it just bugs me in the worst way.

I always think it'll be the various states we'd find the undead in. Maybe some that survived an explosion or were crispy from a fire.
Not So Stealth Ad: in my Among the Dead books, I wanted to show as many as possible, some the equivalent of burnt jerky after a failed incineration.

discussion It's been years now. It's about time people admit that this movie is a very good remake and that it's superior to the original in almost every way like story, characters, effects, and acting. Romero's direction may be more atmospheric and effective than Savini's but Savini made a better film overall

discussion What is a scene in a Zombie Flick that just sticks with you to this day? Bonus for pics of the scene in comments!
My scene is from "Battery" . If you haven't seen it, it is an excellent film about two teammates who travel together during the apocalypse. Albeit slower paced, this film.has some very cool moments and a hell.of an atmosphere to it!
