OHHHH I love survival stories about the undead I will have to get the book! As for it being real? Well there are the several plausible ways to make flesh eating infectious zombies if science wanted to try hard enough so I don't see why not, but after spending the time investigating the supposed true stories of one of my favorite zombie books, "The Zombie Survival Guide" I doubt there is much too it, not that I am not giving it a chance, I will definitely look into this one!

Ha bro the zombie survival guide is totally not true. In case of zombie invasion please move to cold climate. There use to be this spoof website that acts like a team of investors that document and fight zombie infections. I think it was a promo for something but I remember when i first came across it, It took pretty damn real.

WTF !!! That is like something straight out of the movies Can you imagine being that poor mother who lost her child only to have the child come back to life and attack you !

Max Brooks is or has written a new book. Could this be a case of viral advert?

theres alot of "zombie" stuff out there now I notice .... a new movie with the guy from CHEERS ... games.... books....

acclimating us for when "real zombies" comes stuggling up the street in search of food... emaciated and dishevelled... real hungry and insane....

itll just be your fellow Americans that did not prepare......

Oh man I revel in the idea of a zombie apocalypse! Don't get my hopes up like that! Can't wait for the World War Z movie to come out, it should be awesome!

Edit:
From IMDB the movie is in the development stages and I guess is due to release in 2010! I guess they are keeping things hush hush until its near release since you can't look at the film makers without becoming a member.

I honestly wont be completely happy with the global situation until there is an actual Zombie outbreak

Seriously it makes the whole killing of masses of idiots thing much easier on me.

If the stupid people ruining the world are "people" well, it's just not much in my way to go break the whole "thou shalt not kill" thing and do anything about it...

I have to wait and figure out how to survive while the world gets worse and worse to live in.

But if there's a Zombie out break, I can be fairly confident that most of the real dummies i'd love to see go Darwin award will fail to avoid being zombified

At that time I can just start kicking the crap out of them with out fear of legal or divine retribution...

Seems like a win/win as I see it

I'm sorry but the whole entire thing sounds like a giant rip off of Resident Evil personally, I mean word for word, It is exactly the same plot, didn't anybody else catch that???

I think that they're getting lazy in the creative department.

We've got one that can SEE! ....That is exactly it..you nailed it on the head.

This is all just acclimation...brainwashing.

Oh, man I love zombies. I have told my husband MULTIPLE times that I would love to be an extra in a zombie movie. Apparently I just don't know the right people.

As for zombie reality, there would have to be some serious thoughts about the future. In the movie 28 Days Later, it took a few months for the zombies to starve to death, so you'd have to get away from them completely, at least for a while. And in the movie Fido, anyone who died of ANY CAUSE turned into a zombie. So they had to have "head caskets" to ensure no return. That might be another idea, just to make sure the dead stayed dead. And in [REC], Fido, and Shaun of the Dead, zombies learned how to use tools, so you'd have to make sure they weren't able to break into safe zones with tools.

As much as I love zombie movies, I think it would honestly be an awful end. What an awful existence. To have to feed off some poor sap, possibly a friend or family member. To wander aimlessly with no thoughts and no purpose... blech.

And does anyone ever wonder why zombies have to kill everything that moves? There will be fresh bodies EVERYWHERE, but they still insist on killing new ones. Does anyone know why that is?
