HOTD Zombie Discussion




Throughout the years there have been numerous zombie movies and zombie series, a lot of variations of zombies has developed as well. So far there are the "normal" zombies for example those in movies such as The Walking Dead, Shaun Of The Dead, or Zombie Land where the zombies are just mindless piles of moving flesh, not able to climb or run.











Then there are zombies whose sole purpose of existence is to fuck you up. Such as the sprinting, parkour, and climbing zombies of World War Z. These zombies doesn't make any sense to me, how is it that an average person when bit is able to run for ridiculously high speeds and in large numbers are able to climb a huge wall tens of meters high? If a zombie apocalypse actually happened and these guys would be in it I would just shoot myself.

     

Lastly of course you have the mutated zombies, popular in the gaming as well as movie industries such as Left 4 Dead and Resident Evil, these zombies were able to mutate into special zombies with inhuman attributes such as tremendous strength, ability to project acid, development of tentacles, etc.
      

Now the zombies in Highschool Of The Dead, personally I think that it is the best type of zombie. It falls in the category of the normal zombies. slow moving, not a a threat individualy but dangerous in hordes. And just to make it interesting the zombies in HOTD actually have large amounts of strength but ONLY if they manage to grab you and pin you down. All in all I think this adds to the number of reasons why HOTD is awesome.



What would your role be?

During a zombie apocalypse you start to see all kinds of generic characters. Such would be the leader, co-leader, fighter, humane character, team spirit character, annoying bitch yet still alive till now, that guy who just winds up as zombie food, aaaand a lot more.

Now what would your role be? Me personally I think, and I hope, that I'll be the co-leader type of character. I'll be that guy you can rely on yet not the person in charge, of course it is my duty to make decisions if the main leader is having a mental breakdown (which I'm sure any one would eventually experience during a zombie apocalypse).

Also during a zombie apocalypse a lot of people gets to show their true colors, I think this is one of the reasons that HOTD is such an interesting series. It shows that dark and ugly side of the human emotions that is usually hidden from society.

I think it is really interesting to see how people are able to adapt at such a drastic situation like a zombie apocalypse.

From the stick together and stay alive reactions



to the, this can't be real I must be dreaming *dies* reaction












or even the spout utter bullshit because its an apocalypse reaction

Would you want a Zombie Apocalypse?

For me sometimes life gets way too stressful that I just want everything to disappear and be replaced by a zombie apocalypse instead. That way life becomes a lot more simple as it is just about being alive and surviving.

Of course having a team of hot chicks and a dude who's an expert on firearms would be awesome but I don't think that may ever happen even if a zombie apocalypse starts. This is more of a psychological question, most of you even if you are zombie fans would probably be afraid of a zombie apocalypse. I as well think that if it actually happens I would piss my pants hard due to the extreme fright. But I also feel that if I am able to overcome those first moments then I could experience a whole new world where I have never felt more alive....

Besides, you know what they say: deep down we all want a zombie apocalypse....
