Yeah, the fact the outbreak happens all around the globe at nearly the same time is probably the scariest part of this zombie pandemic. No location is truly safe.
Never forget how often people pull up and adjust their pants during the day. The fact that these zombies still have their pants on normal and not around their knees means they are smart enough to keep their pants pulled up all the time.
Well, they’ve been shown to exhibit smarter-than-average Zombie behavior, like helping others get to a victim by holding a door open, hesitating while in the line of fire in a bottleneck, etc. They know they have to run in order to capture prey: they pull their pants up.
This is an odd comment because I _never_ have to stop and pull up my pants "during the day." ... unless I am sitting down on the toilet to use it or getting undressed. How strange. 😕
It's the one thing that's easily tossed when people discuss zombie scenarios. The fact it's almost always a bloodborne pathogen with a 100% infection rate makes it easy for any outbreak to result in the collapse of society. Not only would be scratches be a problem, but you'd get situations like dogs biting zombies and then biting humans, bullets piercing through zombies and hitting someone else, and infected blood getting into tiny cuts that no one knew they had. World War Z (the book) addresses this. Bite-exclusive outbreaks are a bit of a misconception that's rarely upheld in zombie media. Oh, and mosquitoes exist.
@@lnvaderRed mosquitos only gonna be a real issue 3 months outta the year unless you in a tropical, temperate place and I think they wouldn't bite rotten husks of bodies?
@@MensaGiraffeGuns are loud as fuck I don’t really think you’d want to be using them unless you absolutely have to bc if you do you’re probably dead. Assuming your not like a member of the military with a large number of backup
@@MensaGiraffemaybe so. But as time goes on, I can see it being realistic that gunfire would attract more stray zombies, and civvies ammo reserves would slowly dwindle
The scariest part about this movie for me wasnt even the zombies, it was when the black reporter was talking about the dead walking the earth because hell was full. The eerie and omnious vibes it gave till this day gives be goosebumps.
@@ceufrscio707 Okay, Here you go: 👉Story Plot no 1: After The Events of Dawn Of The Dead(2004), When Kenneth, Ana, Terry and Nicole were on the Dead Island on a cliff then suddenly, they saw a lot of US Army helicopters coming towards them and then they got rescued by the US Army on the helicopter who saved them from the Zombie Island by throwing a bomb on the whole island which kills the whole zombies making it an easy escape way for our 4 survivors and the US Army members. US Army then captured all 4 of them along with the dog and told them that if they want to live then they have to follow the US Army rules to which they all agrees then they are told that they will be trained as new US Army soldiers for going on a mission to fight against the fast zombies to find a cure which is present in a biological lab which can stop this virus from spreading quickly and help saving humans lives. All 4 Survivors accept this term and then they got trained in the US Army training center. Once their training got completely then US President then gives order to the US Army General to add our 4 survivors in the Army team for the mission and then the mission begans. While going in a zombie apocalypse area, the US Army losts a lot of their soldiers who get's attacked by the zombies with only Ana surviving in the end and taking the cure from the biological lab and then safely taking it to the US Army doctors. In the end, the US Army gives a special medal to Ana for her achievement. 👉Story Plot no 2: After having a night party with her friends, Ana goes to her bed and decides to sleep. While sleeping, she sees all the events which had happened in Dawn Of The Dead(2004) as in her dream. After some flashbacks of the Dawn Of The Dead(2004) movie in her dream, she suddenly get's up and from there knowing that it was a bad dream. After then it comes the morning, she goes to her hospital where her medical staff is working and while talking to a sick patient, she gets to know that the patient was bitten by a infected dog. After sometime when she tries to check on the patient, the patient get's missing in the hospital. While finally finding the patient, she sees that the patient is now a zombie. She teams up with her medical staff members and fight against the zombies.
Outside of World War Z and the 28 Days Series, I'm with you as all the runners are crazy to me, though, given that Dawn of the Dead are not slowly dying off by themselves is definitely an added freaky factor.
Thing is the scariest part of this universe is that the majority of the world died within the first 24 hours because they were caught off guard. Anna woke up to a zombie in her room. When she was escaping her neighborhood people were just walking outside to see what all the commotion was and then immediately being attacked. A scene showed people being attacked on public transit ( possibly trying to get to work). Much like world war Z this was an explosion of apocalypse that could take out even the most prepared when the timing is right. You have literal seconds to react to your particular situation and let’s be real Anna only survived her initial attack to keep the story going because the way the stunt double banged her head after slamming into the bathtub…. Yurrr done. I can see people surviving The Walking Dead or NOTLD but this kind? We’re all fucked. The most realistic survivor I can see being Andy considering it looks like he lived above his gun store.
@@natiliee.s.5476 Agreed. If it wasn’t for the main cast of survivors attempting to help him he would have probably lived a bit longer but 3 months max considering that’s how long you can survive off water alone.
@@ThePlur427 honestly, he might have lived if he didn't rely on the main cast. If he used everything he had, he probably would have been able to make it to the mall at least. Considering he had so many bullets, chainsaws, potential explosives, moltovs (which would do something at the least) he would have killed a huge portion of the surrounding zombies, if not all of them. But he trusted the mall group to help him out, which ended up with him dying
@@ThePlur427 I don't think Andy would have survived for much longer. He lasted a month with what he had, but was struggling by the time he was bitten. He had to eat his daughters fish cause he got so desperate for food.
Im glad im not the only child that was traumatized by this movie lol. I was at my friends and his parents had this movie and then hills have eyes on at a separate time. I wasnt able to sleep in my own room for i swear half of the year if not more.
The simple fact that they run is enough to make odds of survival lower. If they don’t get tired, and you do... you are screwed unless you can find a good place to hide. Or stay out of reach of them. Setting up some kind of traps to prevent or hinder them from climbing or getting up to you could also help.
The way I see it, it’s a doomed scenario…Within one night most of the states were overrun, let’s say you hideout in the mall, and you eventually take the armoured out buses and make your way outta town, sooner or later you are gonna run into a few hundred thousand zombies in the next city that don’t get winded don’t get tired, and will never ever stop…Your best bet is to stay in the mall, find a way to keep the place barricaded and pray that the zombies decompose enough to the point where they can barely walk…Meat rots, By the second half of the movie the zombies had decomposed severely vs how they looked in the start of the movie looking pretty fresh…Personally if this particular apocalypse ever came about I’d hope for a quick death.
My plan? Since they could make armored busses? Make kind of a centipede of the busses that stretch to Andy's gun store. Just cut the front end off the busses in the middle and drive the front end to the door of Andy's store and leave the end as close to the mall as you can. Use the tunnel of armoured busses to get back all the weapons and then close the mall up for good until they decompose or you can take out most in the streets and then just stay as quiet as possible so the streets don't fill up again.
@@abyxis well that would work too lol it's a lot of guns. Maybe if all the men were willing to go and just toss them down a line to each other into the manhole or something? Or just take a bus and start throwing all the ammo and guns into bags and onto a bus. I dunno. It sounds hard to pull off but even what they did with the busses in the movie seemed kinda like bs to me honestly. At least how well it was done.
As is normal with our generations I’ve spent many a free hour day dreaming about what id do if a zombie apocalypse happens tomorrow, I live like right next to some country side in a small ass town there’s some bothys nearby and I’m a big fan of ultralight camping I’d be off at the first sight securing one of they icolated bothys and fashioning some weapons hopefully bringing some friends and family jajaja , but knowing my luck I’d be one of the first folk to just get the sickness as a cold and be fucked 😂😂
@@lewiitoons4227 my family owns a cabin on the very top top of a mountain that would take days and days to walk to the top of and is isolated in eastern ky. It's on private property (we don't own it but a really rich man who owns many coal mines does and his son in law is in the NFL.) just thought that bit was crazy lol but we'd have a good place to go stay for a while but if things got hectic up there we'd be fucked. There's many roads out but if you can't take em then it's just straight down the mountains on either side and you're gonna take a full day to hit the bottom if you move straight down non stop so that would worry me.
I work at a psych hospital... It'll either be good or bad depending on who thinks to come here and if we could protect ourselves from in building zombies...
Although I truly don't believe there will ever be a zombies apocalypse I truly love to view these types of videos to see others view point on this topic. Every video I've watched thoroughly covers how to best be prepared and the best possible methods to defend yourself against the threats presented by the dead as well as the living...but what everybody seem to forget or never thought about is the biggest threat against the living wouldn't the dead or the living....it would be the mosquitoes. Mosquitoes will feed on the dead, then if they bite you, it would have the same results as being bitten or scratched by a zombie...and because mosquitoes can fly, and they breed like spreading wild fire, there's really no place a person would be safe from coming in contact with them...
Interesting point. Made me Google about mosquitoes and carcasses. Apparently after 15 minutes the blood leaves the capillaries that the mosquitoes can reach. Not sure if true, but still interesting to think about. I guess that’s still a less painful way to go than being eaten lol.
@@AFriendOfYours0 ...Yeah but you also have to consider that feeding on the dead doesn't necessarily mean the mosquitoes are biting the dead...what about the dead that have significant damage done to their bodies, missing limbs, bodies that have been partially eaten...mosquitoes will get blood however possible...
@@41-Rem-Magnum They wouldn't even need to do that. They could just feed on living infected that haven't turned yet. That alone would nail the coffin shut.
Good point about the mosquitoes. I love zombie movies. I am always asking myself how would I survive them as well as the remaining people that turn to savagery for survival.
This Supernatural Virus seems to avert insects such as mosquitoes and flies (perhaps even most types of bacteria). It’s God’s way of ensuring that they don’t rot away completely in 11 days and can still keep on running a month later: BOOM!
Im a 40 year old tax accountant that gets my food from the grocer. I have no trade skills aside from that and my knees hate me when I try to run. If I last ten minutes in this apocalypse it's because the zombies haven't found me yet.
I think the one thing that wasn't said is that your odds of survival depend entirely on the idea that you aren't one of the unlucky people to turn immediately. Because we have no idea how this pandemic started, and the fact that even the doctors who did tests couldn't figure it out. Means that it's highly likely that you could have been walking down the street, enjoying your day and then suddenly you turn and are leading the charge towards the end of the world.
They would all die, they got hurled by a small horde at the start and until they found the prison didn't build into their walker slayers archetypes yet
Would love to see more of these survivability scenarios! OG Dawn of the Dead would be an interesting case. Same deal as this one, but the zombies are slower. I personally don't think it'd change a whole lot in the long run, as society would never be able to survive any kind of spontaneous worldwide disaster like that, and as soon as deaths start snowballing, there's not going to be any turning it around. But maybe the average person could have a better shot of surviving it.
I think the most critical point in any zombie scenario for survival is when it happens, where you are, what's around you, and how quickly you realize what's happening. Everything you do after that is a matter of decisions, but surviving the first wave is mostly a matter of luck.
The number one problem for me is those zombies able to run (and quite fast). Combined with the fact that I would eventually get tired and they wouldn't would mean death if I ever had to venture outside. That probably goes double for anyone that has kids with them or slower people. Btw the early 2000s through the late 2000s had a ton of great horror movies and remakes coming out constantly much better than what we currently have
As a grown man who is 6'2 and damn near 280+ LBS.. Give me a full suit of armor and I'm running that little zombie girl's fade🥊 But as for those grown up Zombies? NAH. I'm grabbing my purse and DIPPING😭😭

People always give this movie shit for the guns, saying “why didn’t they get a bunch of AR’s from his gun store?” Like man, think about when this movie came out. In 2004 maybe, MAYBE if you were lucky a gun shop would have an AR, maybe a Norinco AK etc. mini 14’s were common but 20+ round mags back then were not, they didn’t have all the tactical stuff gun stores have today. Pistols and shotguns were their best choice for sheer firepower in 2004. CJ and Andre both had nickel plated berettas, sign of the times. Those were common then, but you’d be hard pressed to find a dude carrying that gun now. As for the MP5, with Andy’s gun license, you know he kept the “good shit” in the back lol.
Fast zombies are such a dangerous twist . Even someone like me 6' 3 strong af lots of guns ammo snd gear supplies fuel backups . It only takes one mistake and your bit or ripped apart. Odds of survival is not good
This movie truly scarred tge crap out of me. That lil girl and baby man ..... talk about thinking on being a parent especially if during a pandemic as such that your offspring can kill and eat you....ARGHHHHHHH
Lets put ourselves into a mall like in the movie to start it off. Let's say we're in the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota during a zombie outbreak. There's no way of surviving or outlasting a Dawn of the Dead situation because there's too many entrances so it'll be impossible to contain the zombies, there's no hardware store to build defensive barriers or weapons, and there's too many damn people in one location so there's no stopping the zombies from making more zombies. The only true way to luck out is to close yourself into a vendor's shop with metal gates (the metal gates that are meant to prevent rioters/looters from getting in) to prevent those hungry zombies from getting to you. Even if you're able to, you still have to check those who are inside with you, and how do you go about food, water, escape routes, along with what type of people you're trapped with (Karens/Kens, weirdos, assholes, and the list goes on). Even with armed security (which the Mall of America has) there's no way a bunch of mall cops will be able to contain hungry zombies or locking up the mall with their small team (even if they zoom around on their segways). No matter the situation, people are quick to panic (I've seen it too many times) from snow storms, hurricanes, tornadoes, and etc. You'll see lines of cars packed at the stores as people will be buying anything and everything they need to survive (Covid sure did broke the dinner plate for a lot of people while I was 7000+ miles away watching everything unfolding as China was roughly 500 - 700 miles away from my location). That's the terrifying reality we live in because what is out of our control can and will force people to do and say irrational things (Trust me... jokes about eating cats and dogs got old until i broke everyone's lame joke by saying, "Want a hug it out?" or "I need a higher body count." It wasn't nice of me saying this but my dark humor did rub a lot of people the wrong way which I didn't care, but it did lighten the mood of those who love a good joke).
For those who thinks that they all died in the end, well in my opinion they didn't died in the end because in zombie movies, we have seen that characters do scream when they know they are going to get eaten alive by the zombies. The Prime Example of it is from the movie Hell Of The Living Dead as well as Burial Ground, where we can clearly see that our characters scream hard at the end and they are killed by the zombies in a sad way. On the other hand, in Dawn Of The Dead in the ending credits there is no screaming voice just the zombies on the camera thing which means that the last 4 survivors and the dog did survived. I guess that, they could've survived by swimming because as we know fast zombies they can't swim and the zombies of this movie wasn't even like the ones of Land of the Dead so i guess that our survivors did survived. I wish that Zack Snyder can add the rest of the 4 survivors in Planet of The Dead movie(which is sequel of Army of The Dead).
@@TheRealCaptainGold nope! they didn't died and James Gunn never wrote that they died. When people asked him that: "did the survivors survived from the zombie island" then he said: "what survivors" implying that he doesn't remember Dawn Of The Dead Remake now or he has nothing to do with the sequel of Dawn Of The Dead. Although, i do have 2 scripts which still are good enough in making the sequel of Dawn Of The Dead
@@zeeshanakhtar940 You clearly dont understand the humor in his reply. “What survivors?” Basically meaning there are no survivors left living (which would mean those characters aren’t survivors anymore). He definitely remembers.
@@TheRealCaptainGold Well, when he said what survivors then he meant to say that he doesn't remember the survivors and their fate because as you know that, it was a 20 years old movie so how come anyone remember without seeing it? And we do know that James Gunn never worked in any other zombie movie after Dawn Of The Dead remake so him saying what survivors was okay because he didn't know what can we expect from the survivors. Also, in the original Dawn Of The Dead movie, in the end only the bikers and roger get killed whereas the rest of the members still survives.
@@zeeshanakhtar940It's unclear if they canonically survive because the company that produced the movie has the final say. And they were planning a sequel before deciding to cancel it because back then zombie films were just getting out of a massive series of box office flops. The only "confirmed" survivors were Anna and Kenneth because they were going to be in the plot of the second movie, but again, cancelled, so we are left with questions, just like the beginning of the movie. "Are these people alive or dead?" "...We don't know"
Honestly I'd optimistically give everyone a few days to a week in this apocalypse, I'd say those who lived in remote areas such as a cabin in the woods would last longer, but be doomed once a horde stumbled upon them or they're food ran out. It would make for an interesting film though, set 20 years into this apocalypse, I picture it being something like the Road.
A shopping mall is like a doomsday bunker, stocked with food to last for years. If you are lucky enough to live near one you'd have a chance of surviving. The plan to go to the island was silly. They could of driven an armored shuttle to get andy and guns and returned to the mall. Then built weapons to take out the crowd of zombies.
I’ve said , the moment we got the shuttles out I’d go straight to Alaska where’s there’s no people . Collect guns & live off the land , imo smarter than what most would do . If you’re able to live off the land you’d be good in a distant place from people
I remember seeing the map on the extra features and we were cheering on states thatbwere holding there own. I THINK jersey was one of the last spots to go red
If it occurs during a workday, then it's night time on the other side of the World, or vice versus. Survival first depends on if one lives in a gun-friendly state. I personally carry concealed, as well as 80 percent of other people in my area. Most of us in my area also have more guns at home. So, the first day, in my area, most of the undead will be really dead. Now, if you live in an anti-gun area, your odds of surviving the first hour of an outbreak are virtually zero.
Half measures. Most people overestimate their ability to hit a headshot against a sprinting and erratic target. Gun fire also attracts the undead. Odds are, most gun folks in a “gun state” will die by simply overestimating their own abilities and underestimating the threat posed by the undead and other survivors. I’d save the ammo for hunting or emergencies, and I’d focus on staying hidden while I leave for the ocean or wilderness.
@@MensaGiraffe Depends on the situation and the person. Guns often create a false sense of security among many gun-nuts. Most wouldn't be able to land the headshots they need. (That likely includes you.) Most don't have experience in a firefight or truly stressful situation. (Also likely includes you). I'd personally prefer a bow or crossbow - at least I won't alert the entire town when I fire them. Guns would be a measure of last resort. And just like street muggings in crime ridden areas, a handgun likely won't improve your odds by much (just look at studies showing how ineffective concealed carry is against violent muggings). Best bet is to focus on being invisible and getting the F out of town.
I would more than likely get rocked just trying to get to my car. If anyone else that's in my house is infected I'm done. Best thing I could do is if I get infected try and lock myself away in one of the small locked rooms of my house so I can't attack any future survivors that come by.
I never understood why no one ever used the most viable zombie survival tactic. Just set up on top of or surrounded by wood chippers or meat grinders. As long as you have power then you're good. Same as getting in a boat, especially a navy boat. Don't need to worry about your neighbour turning in the night when there's bulkheads keeping them locked up
@@jrfw96 lol, never been in a natural disaster, huh? Lil hint, even after earthquakes and during fires, navies pick up civvies to evacuate. Aussie being on fire was only a few years ago
@@jrfw96 I could also ask why would you think any armed forces would add to zombie hordes by just... not picking people up. When they could easily be saved... Doesn't quite make sense there, eh?
I work from home. Live in a gated comunity with concrete perimeter walls and barbed wire. Window and door security bars . Recently installed a rain water catchment and filtration system; bought some foldable solar panels, power banks and radios last year. Have an emergency food supply of 1 month or so. And we are 20 minutes away or so from a big city. The issue is that my wife and my daughter have a 1 hour and a half daily commute and the highways and roads to get back home get easily congested. So unless the outbreak starts during the weekend, bugging in and wait for them isnt an option.
Yeah it would be tough to get around in cities with cars within a day or so of the outbreak. Massive traffic jams, and the inevitable cars running out of gas will permanently block most roads.
What I like about Snyder choosing all his zombies to be runners is that army of the dead proved that slow zombies are cakewalks and Vegas only fell because of the alphas coordinating attacks and the tiger providing a way faster way tougher undead opponent to ground forces
I feel like you only need to survive for a year or so, only because (especially in modern day) the military could wipe the floor with these zombies. Assuming you aren't in a major populated area when the fire bombings happen, or when nukes/large conventional bombs drop, you should be fine.
The military would instantly fall apart in a scenario like this. Don't kid yourself. DC was overrun in less than 12 hours and even the SEALs protecting the helicopter got taken out.
@@JACCO20082012 I'm not sure how, the military has a large stockpile. They also have things that zombies can't get to like tanks, armoured vehicles, any aircraft, the navy ect... I haven't watched all the DVD extras so maybe it was mentioned there but from the intro, the soldiers shot civilians/reports. Even so, once the government/military leave DC, they'll probs drop a MOAB or smt wiping out much of the zombie threat. Do that for major populations, and the threat goes down.
My biggest concern is the outbreak starting when I'm away from my house or/low on gas for my car. Still not sure if I'd try to hold out at home or make a run for middle of nowhere
Yes I have to agree with you and when I first saw the Dawn of the Dead they were running and it freaked me out because I was used to seeing them run slow. If I watch a horror movie and it doesn't give me nightmare it wasn't scary but this one did it
One problem I had with this lore: Zombies being everywhere in this world, yet only people wounded by them are shown to turn. We got precisely one victim who received a minor injury from them that merely broke the skin, and lasted for a month. Everyone who got bitten was dead in less than a day, which is everyone else who was killed by them, most of which got devoured. By all rights, more of them should be like the loading dock and parking garage one. Where did this really start out in each region? In the old movies from Night of the Living Dead onward intact human brains will simply not stay dead once they croak, period. So them multiplying so rapidly is much more narratively sound, and internally consistent. Wounds from zombies are about as lethal as rubbing rotten meat on an open cut, presuming they did not rip your jugular open.
To add to my last comment. Weather we have days or weeks to prepare for the city hordes to find us, we will spend this time clearing our area (killing zombies if our area) gathering neighbors and refugees to fight. (I’ll add another comment for the 24hr and less preparation you’re mentioning) Really we only have 2 routes for zombies to get here, woods are to thick for hordes to travel quickly, animals follow the easiest path, plus they’ll be following the road because people would be using it. Nowhere is safe so we must fight to declare safety. Multiple fighting positions along with dozens of fall back positions, is hard for modern armies to defeat, a melee only horde will get wrecked trying to rush these. Using trees, vehicles, homemade defenses, and digging pits will decrease the numbers of dead able to rush at once. Especially funnel shaped choke points. If we’re overrun we just keep falling back into the mountains where it gets even harder for us and the dead.
I work from home on the 2nd floor with an electronic door on the ground level. There's a local convenience store about 100 m away so I'd say good odds I'd be okay as I seldom go out. Of course being in an outer suburb of Stockholm, there's still a decent chance I'd have to contend with an insane number of infected. There's a balcony for water but that isn't ideal and I've not tried to access the roof. So I'd last, but of course probably would struggle to last long without a means of defence.
Thought challenge accepted. Even considering caveat of "this specific zombies" I still know the concept of a zombie after Romero's first movie. And Croenenberg 1977 Rabid. So biggest weakness - destroying head also known. Neat. Now two scenarios: 1. If I'm at work when it begins I'm 100% safe. Big city- yes but also closed off marina, during this time of a year only me and my coworkers around.. Also at least two yachts ready to set sails. If I'm on the yacht - they're too working on plumbing, electric stuff, or engine repairs. If first news reports hit us on deck - we have a lot of time to determine what to do. My first move would be to carefully scout if way to magazine is clear (99% it is). So, ropes, water to last at least month (considering the number of ppl), masks, latex gloves, and compounds that are legal, but can easily be made into explosives free for taking. If I can get through the part of convincing the rest to asses whats going on before rushing to save the loved ones (at least one bet here) it would take a month to start reclaiming the world (how - I'll explain later). 2. It started before I got to work. If I'm commuting - I'm dead. If before I left home, and got the news - Im armed with the batton and need to cross 600h meters to reach another marina to borrow a motorboat or RIB, reach preffered marina and replay first scenario, but without help from others. Getting to a motorboat are high, I'd guess 90-100%, benefit of waking up early. Without help of competent ppl chances of survival drop low, cause I have to do everything on my own, and getting jumped is real deal. Bonus. Reclaiming world occupied by fast zombies. Remember, we're still talking fast, not smart or some World War Z abominations. Simple slaughterhouse with long crawlspace ended with barbwire, human bait and something like valves dropping bodies, and allowing others to enter. With enough of this whole hordes would be dealt with. And what about the experiments. Can light strong enough destroy their retinas permanently? Can sound loud enough do the same with their eardrums? Will they adapt or stay the same? Also, one electrician, thousands electric stores gives cameras to monitore their movements and loudspeakers to lure them
This fucking movie gave me nightmares to the point where I had to talk to a therapist as a Child because I thought a real life zombie apocalypse was coming. I had no right watching this at 10 years old ☠️
@@TheRealCaptainGold yes, but you know what it taught me? It taught me EVERYBODY wants MY stuff, and i am absolutely going to extreme precautions to protect it allll
There were warning signs in dawn of the dead. The thing is that people did't pay attention to the warning signs, hence forth why the apocalypse happened. By the time they realized it was too late for them to take correct measures to counter the problem.
Honestly I wouldnt even have a chance 😂 id probably just off myself to save myself the fear, panic and pain of being eaten alive. I have no athleticism, and without my meds even if I found a way to survive it wouldnt be long term. Having health problems in any apocalypse kinda sucks.
When this film came out the Clinton assault weapon ban was still in effect. Movie release: March 19, 2004 Clinton Assault Weapon ban expired: September 13, 2004 Technically during that time you can still buy AR-15 & AK-47 but it has to be modified or grandfathered in. CJ later obtained a Glock 21 Gen 3 with 10 round capacity, its original capacity is 13 rounds of 45ACP.
The only thing I enjoyed about the remake of dawn of the dead was the return of Tom Savini and Ken Foree all be it different roles! But I’d go out in style against the Synder undead, a barred off building so they can’t breach it, tons of guns and ammunition, a duke box with Motörhead and booze 😂
They do rot and decompose, it's just not as fast as they supposedly should. If you watched the extras, Snyder says in the making that they go through 3 stages, the stage at the begining where only the wound is shown, the stage where their wounds and blood is dryed up and the last stage which are some of the ones that we see 1 month later at the end of the movie where they are rotting. So yeah in time they would die on their own or atleast decomposed to the point they wouldn't be able to run or move anymore. The survivors should have stayed in the mall for a few more months and they would be ok, eventually finding other people too since someone whent to Andy's shop and found his tapes after the events of the movie.
I will survive or at least longer than most by being a sneaky coward. I'll just wait it out and eventually others across town will attract them with their escape plans.
Yeah, the fact the outbreak happens all around the globe at nearly the same time is probably the scariest part of this zombie pandemic. No location is truly safe.
My doomsday prepared basement is safe.

Well, they’ve been shown to exhibit smarter-than-average Zombie behavior, like helping others get to a victim by holding a door open, hesitating while in the line of fire in a bottleneck, etc.
They know they have to run in order to capture prey: they pull their pants up.
Belt?
XD
This is an odd comment because I _never_ have to stop and pull up my pants "during the day." ... unless I am sitting down on the toilet to use it or getting undressed. How strange. 😕
Zombie media is often so focused on the BITE mechanic they ignore scratches, cuts and other infection vectors. Nice to see scratches mentioned.
IDK...it probably needs the exchange of bodily fluids... probably if there's a scratch.,it could cause fluid exchange.... just saying... Peace
The Walking Dead did the.."scratch" mechanic all the way up to Season 3 and stopped. Lol
It's the one thing that's easily tossed when people discuss zombie scenarios. The fact it's almost always a bloodborne pathogen with a 100% infection rate makes it easy for any outbreak to result in the collapse of society. Not only would be scratches be a problem, but you'd get situations like dogs biting zombies and then biting humans, bullets piercing through zombies and hitting someone else, and infected blood getting into tiny cuts that no one knew they had. World War Z (the book) addresses this. Bite-exclusive outbreaks are a bit of a misconception that's rarely upheld in zombie media.
Oh, and mosquitoes exist.

The scariest part about this movie for me wasnt even the zombies, it was when the black reporter was talking about the dead walking the earth because hell was full. The eerie and omnious vibes it gave till this day gives be goosebumps.
That was a pastor speaking on tv
That guy was played by Ken Foree, who is famous for saying that line in the original Dawn of the Dead (1978).

Always felt like the left4dead common infected to me
I have already written 2 scripts on Dawn Of The Dead 2
@@zeeshanakhtar940can i read it
@@ceufrscio707 Okay, Here you go:
👉Story Plot no 1: After The Events of Dawn Of The Dead(2004), When Kenneth, Ana, Terry and Nicole were on the Dead Island on a cliff then suddenly, they saw a lot of US Army helicopters coming towards them and then they got rescued by the US Army on the helicopter who saved them from the Zombie Island by throwing a bomb on the whole island which kills the whole zombies making it an easy escape way for our 4 survivors and the US Army members. US Army then captured all 4 of them along with the dog and told them that if they want to live then they have to follow the US Army rules to which they all agrees then they are told that they will be trained as new US Army soldiers for going on a mission to fight against the fast zombies to find a cure which is present in a biological lab which can stop this virus from spreading quickly and help saving humans lives. All 4 Survivors accept this term and then they got trained in the US Army training center. Once their training got completely then US President then gives order to the US Army General to add our 4 survivors in the Army team for the mission and then the mission begans. While going in a zombie apocalypse area, the US Army losts a lot of their soldiers who get's attacked by the zombies with only Ana surviving in the end and taking the cure from the biological lab and then safely taking it to the US Army doctors. In the end, the US Army gives a special medal to Ana for her achievement.
👉Story Plot no 2: After having a night party with her friends, Ana goes to her bed and decides to sleep. While sleeping, she sees all the events which had happened in Dawn Of The Dead(2004) as in her dream. After some flashbacks of the Dawn Of The Dead(2004) movie in her dream, she suddenly get's up and from there knowing that it was a bad dream. After then it comes the morning, she goes to her hospital where her medical staff is working and while talking to a sick patient, she gets to know that the patient was bitten by a infected dog. After sometime when she tries to check on the patient, the patient get's missing in the hospital. While finally finding the patient, she sees that the patient is now a zombie. She teams up with her medical staff members and fight against the zombies.
Outside of World War Z and the 28 Days Series, I'm with you as all the runners are crazy to me, though, given that Dawn of the Dead are not slowly dying off by themselves is definitely an added freaky factor.
Thing is the scariest part of this universe is that the majority of the world died within the first 24 hours because they were caught off guard. Anna woke up to a zombie in her room. When she was escaping her neighborhood people were just walking outside to see what all the commotion was and then immediately being attacked. A scene showed people being attacked on public transit ( possibly trying to get to work). Much like world war Z this was an explosion of apocalypse that could take out even the most prepared when the timing is right. You have literal seconds to react to your particular situation and let’s be real Anna only survived her initial attack to keep the story going because the way the stunt double banged her head after slamming into the bathtub…. Yurrr done. I can see people surviving The Walking Dead or NOTLD but this kind? We’re all fucked. The most realistic survivor I can see being Andy considering it looks like he lived above his gun store.
That's true about Andy, but he still would have also died.
Let's just say the zombies didn't get into his gun store, he would have starved to death.
@@natiliee.s.5476 Agreed. If it wasn’t for the main cast of survivors attempting to help him he would have probably lived a bit longer but 3 months max considering that’s how long you can survive off water alone.
Andy had no food. they took him a 🥪
@@ThePlur427 honestly, he might have lived if he didn't rely on the main cast.
If he used everything he had, he probably would have been able to make it to the mall at least. Considering he had so many bullets, chainsaws, potential explosives, moltovs (which would do something at the least) he would have killed a huge portion of the surrounding zombies, if not all of them.
But he trusted the mall group to help him out, which ended up with him dying
@@ThePlur427 I don't think Andy would have survived for much longer. He lasted a month with what he had, but was struggling by the time he was bitten. He had to eat his daughters fish cause he got so desperate for food.
Im glad im not the only child that was traumatized by this movie lol. I was at my friends and his parents had this movie and then hills have eyes on at a separate time. I wasnt able to sleep in my own room for i swear half of the year if not more.
The Hills have eyes fucked me up real bad for way too long....
I got traumatized by the zombie baby scene
Fast zombies would make it incredibly dangerous to venture out from your safe house.
The simple fact that they run is enough to make odds of survival lower. If they don’t get tired, and you do... you are screwed unless you can find a good place to hide. Or stay out of reach of them. Setting up some kind of traps to prevent or hinder them from climbing or getting up to you could also help.
Ah my first zombie movie! This is when the passion started😍😍
The way I see it, it’s a doomed scenario…Within one night most of the states were overrun, let’s say you hideout in the mall, and you eventually take the armoured out buses and make your way outta town, sooner or later you are gonna run into a few hundred thousand zombies in the next city that don’t get winded don’t get tired, and will never ever stop…Your best bet is to stay in the mall, find a way to keep the place barricaded and pray that the zombies decompose enough to the point where they can barely walk…Meat rots, By the second half of the movie the zombies had decomposed severely vs how they looked in the start of the movie looking pretty fresh…Personally if this particular apocalypse ever came about I’d hope for a quick death.
My plan? Since they could make armored busses? Make kind of a centipede of the busses that stretch to Andy's gun store. Just cut the front end off the busses in the middle and drive the front end to the door of Andy's store and leave the end as close to the mall as you can. Use the tunnel of armoured busses to get back all the weapons and then close the mall up for good until they decompose or you can take out most in the streets and then just stay as quiet as possible so the streets don't fill up again.
@@mimkyu718that sounds hard to pull off, but I see what your thinking. My logic was to go get Andy before the mall gets THAT surrounded
@@abyxis well that would work too lol it's a lot of guns. Maybe if all the men were willing to go and just toss them down a line to each other into the manhole or something? Or just take a bus and start throwing all the ammo and guns into bags and onto a bus. I dunno. It sounds hard to pull off but even what they did with the busses in the movie seemed kinda like bs to me honestly. At least how well it was done.
As is normal with our generations I’ve spent many a free hour day dreaming about what id do if a zombie apocalypse happens tomorrow, I live like right next to some country side in a small ass town there’s some bothys nearby and I’m a big fan of ultralight camping I’d be off at the first sight securing one of they icolated bothys and fashioning some weapons hopefully bringing some friends and family jajaja , but knowing my luck I’d be one of the first folk to just get the sickness as a cold and be fucked 😂😂
@@lewiitoons4227 my family owns a cabin on the very top top of a mountain that would take days and days to walk to the top of and is isolated in eastern ky. It's on private property (we don't own it but a really rich man who owns many coal mines does and his son in law is in the NFL.) just thought that bit was crazy lol but we'd have a good place to go stay for a while but if things got hectic up there we'd be fucked. There's many roads out but if you can't take em then it's just straight down the mountains on either side and you're gonna take a full day to hit the bottom if you move straight down non stop so that would worry me.

@robertkeane9393 yep
Now you only get a lot of that from boutique physical media labels.
I work at a psych hospital... It'll either be good or bad depending on who thinks to come here and if we could protect ourselves from in building zombies...
"Hell overflowed" best reason for the zombie apocalypse bar none in my opinion
Although I truly don't believe there will ever be a zombies apocalypse I truly love to view these types of videos to see others view point on this topic. Every video I've watched thoroughly covers how to best be prepared and the best possible methods to defend yourself against the threats presented by the dead as well as the living...but what everybody seem to forget or never thought about is the biggest threat against the living wouldn't the dead or the living....it would be the mosquitoes. Mosquitoes will feed on the dead, then if they bite you, it would have the same results as being bitten or scratched by a zombie...and because mosquitoes can fly, and they breed like spreading wild fire, there's really no place a person would be safe from coming in contact with them...
Interesting point. Made me Google about mosquitoes and carcasses. Apparently after 15 minutes the blood leaves the capillaries that the mosquitoes can reach. Not sure if true, but still interesting to think about. I guess that’s still a less painful way to go than being eaten lol.
@@AFriendOfYours0 ...Yeah but you also have to consider that feeding on the dead doesn't necessarily mean the mosquitoes are biting the dead...what about the dead that have significant damage done to their bodies, missing limbs, bodies that have been partially eaten...mosquitoes will get blood however possible...
@@41-Rem-Magnum They wouldn't even need to do that. They could just feed on living infected that haven't turned yet. That alone would nail the coffin shut.
Good point about the mosquitoes. I love zombie movies. I am always asking myself how would I survive them as well as the remaining people that turn to savagery for survival.
This Supernatural Virus seems to avert insects such as mosquitoes and flies (perhaps even most types of bacteria).
It’s God’s way of ensuring that they don’t rot away completely in 11 days and can still keep on running a month later: BOOM!
Im a 40 year old tax accountant that gets my food from the grocer. I have no trade skills aside from that and my knees hate me when I try to run. If I last ten minutes in this apocalypse it's because the zombies haven't found me yet.
I think the one thing that wasn't said is that your odds of survival depend entirely on the idea that you aren't one of the unlucky people to turn immediately. Because we have no idea how this pandemic started, and the fact that even the doctors who did tests couldn't figure it out. Means that it's highly likely that you could have been walking down the street, enjoying your day and then suddenly you turn and are leading the charge towards the end of the world.
The two things that traumatized me the most from this movie were the fat zombie grandma and the zombie newborn.
With the amount of serious preppers in the US in 2024, I think this would turn out differently.
Ah yes, the preppers. The last to die when their preps run out lol
You should make a video speculating how long our TWD group would survive in this version of the apocalypse
They would all die, they got hurled by a small horde at the start and until they found the prison didn't build into their walker slayers archetypes yet
They would all be annihilated
Would love to see more of these survivability scenarios! OG Dawn of the Dead would be an interesting case. Same deal as this one, but the zombies are slower. I personally don't think it'd change a whole lot in the long run, as society would never be able to survive any kind of spontaneous worldwide disaster like that, and as soon as deaths start snowballing, there's not going to be any turning it around. But maybe the average person could have a better shot of surviving it.
Wow such gaming does these types of scenarios sometimes
I think the most critical point in any zombie scenario for survival is when it happens, where you are, what's around you, and how quickly you realize what's happening. Everything you do after that is a matter of decisions, but surviving the first wave is mostly a matter of luck.
I finally found the perfect zombie RUclips channel I have been looking for
The number one problem for me is those zombies able to run (and quite fast). Combined with the fact that I would eventually get tired and they wouldn't would mean death if I ever had to venture outside. That probably goes double for anyone that has kids with them or slower people. Btw the early 2000s through the late 2000s had a ton of great horror movies and remakes coming out constantly much better than what we currently have

My favorite weapon cameo is the mp5a2 Andy has on the lost tapes
People always give this movie shit for the guns, saying “why didn’t they get a bunch of AR’s from his gun store?” Like man, think about when this movie came out. In 2004 maybe, MAYBE if you were lucky a gun shop would have an AR, maybe a Norinco AK etc. mini 14’s were common but 20+ round mags back then were not, they didn’t have all the tactical stuff gun stores have today. Pistols and shotguns were their best choice for sheer firepower in 2004. CJ and Andre both had nickel plated berettas, sign of the times. Those were common then, but you’d be hard pressed to find a dude carrying that gun now.
As for the MP5, with Andy’s gun license, you know he kept the “good shit” in the back lol.
The MW2 music in the background makes this video great
Fast zombies are such a dangerous twist . Even someone like me 6' 3 strong af lots of guns ammo snd gear supplies fuel backups . It only takes one mistake and your bit or ripped apart. Odds of survival is not good
This movie truly scarred tge crap out of me. That lil girl and baby man ..... talk about thinking on being a parent especially if during a pandemic as such that your offspring can kill and eat you....ARGHHHHHHH
Lets put ourselves into a mall like in the movie to start it off. Let's say we're in the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota during a zombie outbreak. There's no way of surviving or outlasting a Dawn of the Dead situation because there's too many entrances so it'll be impossible to contain the zombies, there's no hardware store to build defensive barriers or weapons, and there's too many damn people in one location so there's no stopping the zombies from making more zombies. The only true way to luck out is to close yourself into a vendor's shop with metal gates (the metal gates that are meant to prevent rioters/looters from getting in) to prevent those hungry zombies from getting to you. Even if you're able to, you still have to check those who are inside with you, and how do you go about food, water, escape routes, along with what type of people you're trapped with (Karens/Kens, weirdos, assholes, and the list goes on). Even with armed security (which the Mall of America has) there's no way a bunch of mall cops will be able to contain hungry zombies or locking up the mall with their small team (even if they zoom around on their segways).
No matter the situation, people are quick to panic (I've seen it too many times) from snow storms, hurricanes, tornadoes, and etc. You'll see lines of cars packed at the stores as people will be buying anything and everything they need to survive (Covid sure did broke the dinner plate for a lot of people while I was 7000+ miles away watching everything unfolding as China was roughly 500 - 700 miles away from my location). That's the terrifying reality we live in because what is out of our control can and will force people to do and say irrational things (Trust me... jokes about eating cats and dogs got old until i broke everyone's lame joke by saying, "Want a hug it out?" or "I need a higher body count." It wasn't nice of me saying this but my dark humor did rub a lot of people the wrong way which I didn't care, but it did lighten the mood of those who love a good joke).
While all y'all are distracting the zombies I'll be walking out my apartment looking like HUNK 😂
For those who thinks that they all died in the end, well in my opinion they didn't died in the end because in zombie movies, we have seen that characters do scream when they know they are going to get eaten alive by the zombies. The Prime Example of it is from the movie Hell Of The Living Dead as well as Burial Ground, where we can clearly see that our characters scream hard at the end and they are killed by the zombies in a sad way.
On the other hand, in Dawn Of The Dead in the ending credits there is no screaming voice just the zombies on the camera thing which means that the last 4 survivors and the dog did survived. I guess that, they could've survived by swimming because as we know fast zombies they can't swim and the zombies of this movie wasn't even like the ones of Land of the Dead so i guess that our survivors did survived. I wish that Zack Snyder can add the rest of the 4 survivors in Planet of The Dead movie(which is sequel of Army of The Dead).
James Gunn confirmed they died on X / Twitter.
@@TheRealCaptainGold nope! they didn't died and James Gunn never wrote that they died.
When people asked him that: "did the survivors survived from the zombie island" then he said: "what survivors" implying that he doesn't remember Dawn Of The Dead Remake now or he has nothing to do with the sequel of Dawn Of The Dead.
Although, i do have 2 scripts which still are good enough in making the sequel of Dawn Of The Dead
@@zeeshanakhtar940
You clearly dont understand the humor in his reply. “What survivors?” Basically meaning there are no survivors left living (which would mean those characters aren’t survivors anymore). He definitely remembers.
@@TheRealCaptainGold Well, when he said what survivors then he meant to say that he doesn't remember the survivors and their fate because as you know that, it was a 20 years old movie so how come anyone remember without seeing it?
And we do know that James Gunn never worked in any other zombie movie after Dawn Of The Dead remake so him saying what survivors was okay because he didn't know what can we expect from the survivors.
Also, in the original Dawn Of The Dead movie, in the end only the bikers and roger get killed whereas the rest of the members still survives.
@@zeeshanakhtar940It's unclear if they canonically survive because the company that produced the movie has the final say. And they were planning a sequel before deciding to cancel it because back then zombie films were just getting out of a massive series of box office flops. The only "confirmed" survivors were Anna and Kenneth because they were going to be in the plot of the second movie, but again, cancelled, so we are left with questions, just like the beginning of the movie.
"Are these people alive or dead?"
"...We don't know"
Honestly I'd optimistically give everyone a few days to a week in this apocalypse, I'd say those who lived in remote areas such as a cabin in the woods would last longer, but be doomed once a horde stumbled upon them or they're food ran out. It would make for an interesting film though, set 20 years into this apocalypse, I picture it being something like the Road.
With fast zombies we’re all dead imagine trying to get a head shot on one while five or more are running at you
When Johnny Cash's "When the man comes around" plays from the sky, I'll know what's happening.
A shopping mall is like a doomsday bunker, stocked with food to last for years. If you are lucky enough to live near one you'd have a chance of surviving. The plan to go to the island was silly. They could of driven an armored shuttle to get andy and guns and returned to the mall. Then built weapons to take out the crowd of zombies.
I’ve said , the moment we got the shuttles out I’d go straight to Alaska where’s there’s no people . Collect guns & live off the land , imo smarter than what most would do . If you’re able to live off the land you’d be good in a distant place from people
I remember seeing the map on the extra features and we were cheering on states thatbwere holding there own. I THINK jersey was one of the last spots to go red
Jersey would fall fast in real life.
Jersey is already fallen IRL lol
The east coast megalopolis would be one of the most dangerous areas to be in because it’s one of the most population dense areas in the United States.
If it occurs during a workday, then it's night time on the other side of the World, or vice versus. Survival first depends on if one lives in a gun-friendly state. I personally carry concealed, as well as 80 percent of other people in my area. Most of us in my area also have more guns at home. So, the first day, in my area, most of the undead will be really dead. Now, if you live in an anti-gun area, your odds of surviving the first hour of an outbreak are virtually zero.
Half measures. Most people overestimate their ability to hit a headshot against a sprinting and erratic target. Gun fire also attracts the undead. Odds are, most gun folks in a “gun state” will die by simply overestimating their own abilities and underestimating the threat posed by the undead and other survivors. I’d save the ammo for hunting or emergencies, and I’d focus on staying hidden while I leave for the ocean or wilderness.
@@TheRealCaptainGold Having guns in the initial outbreak will give one way more odds than someone without.
@@MensaGiraffe Depends on the situation and the person. Guns often create a false sense of security among many gun-nuts. Most wouldn't be able to land the headshots they need. (That likely includes you.) Most don't have experience in a firefight or truly stressful situation. (Also likely includes you).
I'd personally prefer a bow or crossbow - at least I won't alert the entire town when I fire them. Guns would be a measure of last resort. And just like street muggings in crime ridden areas, a handgun likely won't improve your odds by much (just look at studies showing how ineffective concealed carry is against violent muggings). Best bet is to focus on being invisible and getting the F out of town.
@@TheRealCaptainGold perfect summation!
@@Apocalypse_Promotions Really? Far from it.
I would more than likely get rocked just trying to get to my car. If anyone else that's in my house is infected I'm done. Best thing I could do is if I get infected try and lock myself away in one of the small locked rooms of my house so I can't attack any future survivors that come by.
I never understood why no one ever used the most viable zombie survival tactic.
Just set up on top of or surrounded by wood chippers or meat grinders. As long as you have power then you're good. Same as getting in a boat, especially a navy boat. Don't need to worry about your neighbour turning in the night when there's bulkheads keeping them locked up

Slow zombies = ok to leave to change locations or gather supplies. Fast zombies = dangerous = hunker down and ride out the first wave.
WWZ zombies are the scariest zombies of all time
Also, Andy says the internet would still work days after Day 1.
Be more worried about Venezuelan gangs.
True
I work from home. Live in a gated comunity with concrete perimeter walls and barbed wire. Window and door security bars . Recently installed a rain water catchment and filtration system; bought some foldable solar panels, power banks and radios last year. Have an emergency food supply of 1 month or so. And we are 20 minutes away or so from a big city.
The issue is that my wife and my daughter have a 1 hour and a half daily commute and the highways and roads to get back home get easily congested.
So unless the outbreak starts during the weekend, bugging in and wait for them isnt an option.
Yeah it would be tough to get around in cities with cars within a day or so of the outbreak. Massive traffic jams, and the inevitable cars running out of gas will permanently block most roads.
Homie is literally in a Project Zomboid Scenario ain't ni way he making it out of this one.
That fat zombie in the thumbnail image made for one of the scarriest scenes in the entire movie, in my personal opinion 😅😅😱😱
Chance favors the prepared mind ! People think preppers are crazy when in reality it's the other way around
I CAN because I wouldn't TRUST ANYONE EXCEPT MY FAMILY!! EVERYONE IS EXPENDABLE!!
I can confidently say absolutely not. Those zombies never got tired.
My ten plus firearms and the one I always carry begs to differ if this hits randomly.
What I like about Snyder choosing all his zombies to be runners is that army of the dead proved that slow zombies are cakewalks and Vegas only fell because of the alphas coordinating attacks and the tiger providing a way faster way tougher undead opponent to ground forces
I remember the first time I ever watched the extra features on the DVD when I was a kid. They were so special to me.
I feel like you only need to survive for a year or so, only because (especially in modern day) the military could wipe the floor with these zombies. Assuming you aren't in a major populated area when the fire bombings happen, or when nukes/large conventional bombs drop, you should be fine.
The military would instantly fall apart in a scenario like this. Don't kid yourself. DC was overrun in less than 12 hours and even the SEALs protecting the helicopter got taken out.
@@JACCO20082012 I'm not sure how, the military has a large stockpile. They also have things that zombies can't get to like tanks, armoured vehicles, any aircraft, the navy ect...
I haven't watched all the DVD extras so maybe it was mentioned there but from the intro, the soldiers shot civilians/reports.
Even so, once the government/military leave DC, they'll probs drop a MOAB or smt wiping out much of the zombie threat. Do that for major populations, and the threat goes down.
Yeah, my cardio is way to low to survive this particular zombie apocalypse.
My biggest concern is the outbreak starting when I'm away from my house or/low on gas for my car. Still not sure if I'd try to hold out at home or make a run for middle of nowhere
Yes I have to agree with you and when I first saw the Dawn of the Dead they were running and it freaked me out because I was used to seeing them run slow.
If I watch a horror movie and it doesn't give me nightmare it wasn't scary but this one did it
Freeze will always work,they are human bodies after all. Unless they have some supernatural body heat(like necromoph), they will freeze.
I live in a small town out in the northern mountains and work in a McDonald's kitchen and have the exits memorized, I just might be fine
One problem I had with this lore: Zombies being everywhere in this world, yet only people wounded by them are shown to turn. We got precisely one victim who received a minor injury from them that merely broke the skin, and lasted for a month. Everyone who got bitten was dead in less than a day, which is everyone else who was killed by them, most of which got devoured. By all rights, more of them should be like the loading dock and parking garage one. Where did this really start out in each region?
In the old movies from Night of the Living Dead onward intact human brains will simply not stay dead once they croak, period. So them multiplying so rapidly is much more narratively sound, and internally consistent. Wounds from zombies are about as lethal as rubbing rotten meat on an open cut, presuming they did not rip your jugular open.
To add to my last comment. Weather we have days or weeks to prepare for the city hordes to find us, we will spend this time clearing our area (killing zombies if our area) gathering neighbors and refugees to fight. (I’ll add another comment for the 24hr and less preparation you’re mentioning)
Really we only have 2 routes for zombies to get here, woods are to thick for hordes to travel quickly, animals follow the easiest path, plus they’ll be following the road because people would be using it. Nowhere is safe so we must fight to declare safety.
Multiple fighting positions along with dozens of fall back positions, is hard for modern armies to defeat, a melee only horde will get wrecked trying to rush these. Using trees, vehicles, homemade defenses, and digging pits will decrease the numbers of dead able to rush at once. Especially funnel shaped choke points.
If we’re overrun we just keep falling back into the mountains where it gets even harder for us and the dead.
Zombie movie newscasts are the best
You gotta do more of these videos.
Dont forget when escaping at sea or on an oil rig, malnutrition may be a big killer
This movie is a top contender for best zombie movie for me, there are few I'd say are a genuine contender
If I was very high experience athletic running, and a zombie apocalypse happened, and they run at me well I would survive hopefully long enough.
If zombies were all fast I'd die instantly as evident from my encounter with feral zombies in 7 Days to Die.
I work from home on the 2nd floor with an electronic door on the ground level. There's a local convenience store about 100 m away so I'd say good odds I'd be okay as I seldom go out. Of course being in an outer suburb of Stockholm, there's still a decent chance I'd have to contend with an insane number of infected. There's a balcony for water but that isn't ideal and I've not tried to access the roof. So I'd last, but of course probably would struggle to last long without a means of defence.
Lives in UK with no access to guns combine with fast zombies:
*VETERAN DIFFICULTY*
Lil ass uk with that population density and no guns would be a nightmare😭😭
@imdaking9448 Homies better have shield walls with all the swords and Armor England has from fighting the French 😁👍
Rally the soldiers, muster the swords and knifes !
Running zombies? I wouldn't even try. It's just an impossible situation to survive.
Thought challenge accepted. Even considering caveat of "this specific zombies" I still know the concept of a zombie after Romero's first movie. And Croenenberg 1977 Rabid. So biggest weakness - destroying head also known. Neat. Now two scenarios:
1. If I'm at work when it begins I'm 100% safe. Big city- yes but also closed off marina, during this time of a year only me and my coworkers around.. Also at least two yachts ready to set sails. If I'm on the yacht - they're too working on plumbing, electric stuff, or engine repairs. If first news reports hit us on deck - we have a lot of time to determine what to do. My first move would be to carefully scout if way to magazine is clear (99% it is). So, ropes, water to last at least month (considering the number of ppl), masks, latex gloves, and compounds that are legal, but can easily be made into explosives free for taking. If I can get through the part of convincing the rest to asses whats going on before rushing to save the loved ones (at least one bet here) it would take a month to start reclaiming the world (how - I'll explain later).
2. It started before I got to work. If I'm commuting - I'm dead. If before I left home, and got the news - Im armed with the batton and need to cross 600h meters to reach another marina to borrow a motorboat or RIB, reach preffered marina and replay first scenario, but without help from others. Getting to a motorboat are high, I'd guess 90-100%, benefit of waking up early. Without help of competent ppl chances of survival drop low, cause I have to do everything on my own, and getting jumped is real deal.
Bonus. Reclaiming world occupied by fast zombies. Remember, we're still talking fast, not smart or some World War Z abominations. Simple slaughterhouse with long crawlspace ended with barbwire, human bait and something like valves dropping bodies, and allowing others to enter. With enough of this whole hordes would be dealt with. And what about the experiments. Can light strong enough destroy their retinas permanently? Can sound loud enough do the same with their eardrums? Will they adapt or stay the same? Also, one electrician, thousands electric stores gives cameras to monitore their movements and loudspeakers to lure them
This fucking movie gave me nightmares to the point where I had to talk to a therapist as a Child because I thought a real life zombie apocalypse was coming. I had no right watching this at 10 years old ☠️
As someone who played ark way and i mean WAYYYY too much, bold of you to assume im not putting a 15ft brick fence around my 10 acre property
Ark is fun af
@@TheRealCaptainGold yes, but you know what it taught me? It taught me EVERYBODY wants MY stuff, and i am absolutely going to extreme precautions to protect it allll
They should've stayed inside the mall !!
Those of us who have access to guns should be ok cool video
😂
The odds of landing a headshot on a fast, and aggressive moving target (along with the stress of the situation) are very slim. We're all screwed. 😂
Post apocalypse California 2013 here 😤
I would so die. Bunkering down in one spot with enough food is the best chance at surviving longer than a day
There were warning signs in dawn of the dead. The thing is that people did't pay attention to the warning signs, hence forth why the apocalypse happened. By the time they realized it was too late for them to take correct measures to counter the problem.
Honestly I wouldnt even have a chance 😂 id probably just off myself to save myself the fear, panic and pain of being eaten alive.
I have no athleticism, and without my meds even if I found a way to survive it wouldnt be long term. Having health problems in any apocalypse kinda sucks.
Short answer: no
Long answer: heeelllll nooo!
I live in archipelago with more than 7000+ islands and many of them are uninhabited all i need is a reliable boat to easily get there
No but i might not die on the first day cause i live in the wilderness
Zombie animals, at least in the city the animals are managable, but encountering a zombie bear in the woods is game over
If there were zombies and they were like Dawn of the dead or devils playground I'm screwed. I might as well be the first to be infected.😅
I can barely survive normal life.
When this film came out the Clinton assault weapon ban was still in effect.
Movie release: March 19, 2004
Clinton Assault Weapon ban expired: September 13, 2004
Technically during that time you can still buy AR-15 & AK-47 but it has to be modified or grandfathered in.
CJ later obtained a Glock 21 Gen 3 with 10 round capacity, its original capacity is 13 rounds of 45ACP.
Forest of hands and teeth did it well. Only a few zombies are fast but they degrade super quickly compared to normal zombies
The only thing I enjoyed about the remake of dawn of the dead was the return of Tom Savini and Ken Foree all be it different roles! But I’d go out in style against the Synder undead, a barred off building so they can’t breach it, tons of guns and ammunition, a duke box with Motörhead and booze 😂
If that’s all you liked about the remake then you have bad taste
@@debbiebrantley61 it’s all I like because my favourite zombie film of all time is the original dawn of the dead 1978 theatrical version
People also forget corpse disposal. Let alone the work and time it takes and mental toll, if you don't say hello to the plague 2.0
Fuck no I couldnt. They run? They climb? They ambush? Nah, Im cooked
They do rot and decompose, it's just not as fast as they supposedly should. If you watched the extras, Snyder says in the making that they go through 3 stages, the stage at the begining where only the wound is shown, the stage where their wounds and blood is dryed up and the last stage which are some of the ones that we see 1 month later at the end of the movie where they are rotting. So yeah in time they would die on their own or atleast decomposed to the point they wouldn't be able to run or move anymore. The survivors should have stayed in the mall for a few more months and they would be ok, eventually finding other people too since someone whent to Andy's shop and found his tapes after the events of the movie.
I will survive or at least longer than most by being a sneaky coward. I'll just wait it out and eventually others across town will attract them with their escape plans.
6:09 well considering they're in the great lakes (for some reason, doubt there's much prey out there) they can probably swim
Honestly I'm going to get bodied on the first day
you should do a 'could you survive' on the "Quarantine" zombie movie.
