Berlin Undead

So I was watching this German "28 Days Later" riff and the folks were basically held up in an apartment complex. So this youngish kid was making a sling shot with fork tine projectiles and it got me thinking which country would be able to stave off unarmed zombiesque mob best? I was thinking whole countries and not pockets of populations.

As for the movie? Not too bad since it's kind a short.

    I always thought a combine would be a good weapon for zombies.

    Northern Canada or Alaska and the Inuit people. Most zombies aren't well dressed and would end up as solid blocks of rotten flesh. [:D]

    Oh, there's a GREAT scene to suggest to the next screen writer. A 5'8" 150 pound zombie attacks a 10' tall 1500 pound polar bear. Now, I'd pay money to watch that. [:D][:D] It wouldn't even have to be in the arctic. A few days after the zombie attack, there wouldn't be any more zoo workers left and the bears in the zoo would be getting mite peckish. Enter the zombie. Lights, action!! [;)]

    andrewsw16 - You think and outside of the box and very well!

    jeffb1911 - No slouch either!

    Add to all of this the trend towards global warming or at least decreasing Arctic ice ... and there is an increasing possibility that the Grizz would get them rather the Polar critters! [:0] [:(] [;)]

    probably china. we have guns, but would run out of ammo after a while. there are a lot of chinese that know kung fu. they don't need guns for something like that. they have swords, staffs, and 1000 other bizarre weapons.

    SWAT 50 - In the book Bloodcrazy folks would run a length of chain between two rigs and run the zombies inbetween the chains. Personally I don't think the rigs would be traveling fast enough to slice them in half like the story states. But I reckon combine woud be cool. But if we're talking farming gear I say a hay bailer. A block of zombie with legs and arms sticking out like a sea urchin would be a funny thing to see.

    andrewsw16 - I take it you never seen "Dead Snow". It seems they do * dory in snow even after half a centry of decomp. It seemed the treasure kept them looking and "alive" (I would've thought it would be more of the Jew thing). Also how cool would it be to see inuit all decked out in seal skin roaming zombies?

    As for a zombie attacking a polar bear. It'll play out just like that Black Knight from Monty Python. Without dialog.

    buschmaster - A zombie kung-fu movie? I think it'll star out action packed kung fu-athon. But eventually a billion zombies getting hungry after half an hour would be boring. I suppose they could go for Indian or Russian.

    I think Australia would be best. I mean after you got rid of all the zombies there wouldn't be any more invasion. Unless a zombiefied Pacific Princess ran a shore. With that said all the connected landmass countries would be zombie-fied eventually.

    honestly, unless the zombie virus is airborne, but rather bite/scratch transmitter, I simply cannot see it spreading in the US.

    There's plenty of gun owners with significant stockpiles of ammo. Once people figured out what was going on, the rate of zombies getting capped off would greatly outweigh the rate of successful bites.

    Unless of course the gover-morons declared martial law and then decided to try to cure and/or communicate with the zombies...

    But then you would have zombie-fied polar bears that WOULD be able to withstand the cold. Game set match Inuits
