Zombie Tip Of The Week: All the weapons can't save you if they don't work!

What supplies are you taking with you when the zombie apocalypse happens?  Normally when I ask that question I get a long list of food, water, medical supplies, camping gear, and of course at the top of that list is weapons of some kind.  I've seen bug-out-bags with 5 or 6 knives, 4 rifles, crossbows, and more handguns that you could hold if you were Shiva.  You know what I didn't see?... Not one can of oil, clp, sharpening stones, or extra bow string material.  When your weapons fail, you fail.  Something to think about.

Prepare yourself for a world of zombies with Zombies, Run

Get your running shoes on and prepare for an experience of a life time with the Zombies, Run game by Six to Start.  This game immerses you into world where you have to literally run for your life while you collect supplies and avoid zombies.  Before you go on your run you load the program and put your headphone on and you take on the persona of "Runner 5", one of the few survivors of Abel Township sent out to collect supplies to rebuild your civilization.  While you're on your run you will receive instructions on where to go while hearing zombies all around you trying to get eat you.

"You can hear every guttural breath, every rattling groan - they’re everywhere." -Zombies, Run
"I ran through my neighborhood, and I swear the corner market instantly transformed into the hospital described in the story." -The Clothes Make The Girl

As if you needed anymore motivation, you can load your own playlist to listen to in-between the storyline.
This app is an awesome way to stay fit for the coming zombie apocalypse.

Zombie Tip Of The Week: Have a plan B

It's just a known fact that things never go according to plan. There is even an epigram dedicated to this called "Murphy's Law".   Don't let it catch you off guard, make sure you have a back up plan.  Make sure you always have that one extra person with you, that one extra weapon, that back door to escape, and make sure everyone else knows it.

Big Week For The Walking Dead

Those of you who are into AMC's The Walking Dead have had a real treat this week.  Issue #100 was released and boy was it intense.  Pick up a copy and see who gets "voted off" this time. For those you not reading the comics I won't spoil it for you but here is some goodies for you too.  AMC released an extended trailer for season 3, check it out.

Zombies take the big screen again Before The Dawn

Scheduled for an October 2013 release, Before The Dawn, by Redberry Films aims to throw a twist in the zombie origin theory.  Stay tuned here for more as it develops.

Edit 07/17/2022

What if the treatment to save the life of a person you love had certain horrific side effects? What if that side effect caused the zombie outbreak? Finally, what if you couldn't tell the zombies from the normal people until it was to late? These are a few things to look forward to in the upcoming horror flick, Before The Dawn. From the synopsis I read this promises a zombie outbreak story like you've never seen before. Tentatively scheduled for an October 2013 release this movie keeps me wanting more details. Any guesses on what you might see, or like to see.

Face eating "zombies"...again

Well, its happened again.  This time across the big pond in the city of Wenzhou in China.  Apparently bus driver name Dong have a few too many drinks on his lunch break and decided he would stand in the middle of traffic until someone stopped.  It just so happened that Du was the unlucky person this day.  Dong jumped on top of her vehicle and started beating on the hood and when she got out to run away he jump on top of her and commence to chewing on her face.

Witnesses, attempting to restrain Dong, were easily resisted by the drunken ninja.  He continued to chew on her until the police arrived and were able to subdue him and take him into custody.  Du was taken to the hospital where she will need plastic surgery to reconstruct her face.

This incident comes in the wake of the Florida "zombie" where Rudy Eugene chewed the face off of a homeless person in late May.  It was said that he was on bath salts but it was later proved not to be case after an autopsy.

It seems to me like face eating has become the thing to do and I'm not sure all these cases are really genuine or people just trying to recreate the hype. Earlier this month police responded to a report of someone acting strangely in a golf course in Atlanta.  Police arrived to find Karl Laventure running around naked with a golf club.  While he was being tasered by police he shouted "I'll eat your face @#$^%$#@%^$#*, I'll eat your face @#$^%$#@%^$#*".

Do You Have What It Takes To Survive The Apocalypse?

Think you have the ability to survive a zombie infested world?  Find out for yourself at the Run For Your Lives 5K zombie filled obstacle course.  It's going on now in select cities from Washington down to Florida.  Here you can test your speed and whits against all types of zombies, from the slow Night of the Living Dead creepers to the 28 Days Later run your ass off killers.

At the start of the race all of the participants will be given a belt with a certain number of flags. Along the way you will encounter zombies that will be trying to take your flags away. If you lose all of your flags you are considered "dead". When you complete the course you are given a medal, either a survivor medal or a zombie medal, depending on living status.  The real kicker is that when you cross the finish line "dead", you become a zombie and then try to take other people flags away. That being said, the longer it takes you to complete the course the more zombies you will have to contend with.

This event is as realist as it gets without actually being eaten by a real zombie.  All zombies are instructed to grab flags and not chew your face off.  In the unlikely even that someone does get hurt they do have medical personnel standing by.

If you think you have what it takes, find out for sure at the next event.
