The slow-moving ones are always the ones that come in swarms such that no matter how quickly you bat away hands, there's always another zombie right there about to munch on your gonads.

There are occasions (often when all is quiet and you're in a dark room) that only one or two zombies are standing there, I never said it was good for huge mobs... though, if you move quickly, you may be able to kill a good deal of them. However, when faced with zombies as far as the eye can see, you're pretty much screwed unless you have a superlaser, expolsives and distance to use them, or the world's biggest lawnmower.

None of those are easy to come by for most of us, so all we can really do is pick them off from an ever shrinking distance.

In my experience (and by "experience", I mean "knowledge of the walking dead"), zombies are pretty damn stupid. In most movies, they rely on their sight and hearing moreso than their sense of smell. If that's the case, it's very easy to maneuver through a huge crowd of zombies. Make an explosive out of a propane tank or get a bunch of Roman Candles. Just toss it in the complete opposite direction of where you want to go, as far as you can. No matter what, they'll be distracted by it, because it means that something is there. Then run for dear life.

Also, the best place to run off and survive during apocalyptic zombiefest in is in a tree. A very tall tree. If you can build a tree house (depending on where it is, insulated) in the middle of the woods about 12+ feet in the air, you're guaranteed safety for a while. Either that, or a desert island--if they can't swim/walk on the ocean floor.

Also, sea monsters.

I agree with the tree part.

Not that I have a better plan, but aren't zombies notorious for climbing up things to get to people?

Zombies don't climb. At least, the Max Brooks and George A. Romero zombies don't. You're probably thinking of 28 Days Later, which weren't zombies at all.

Acually, I'm thinking of dawn of the dead, house of the dead, movies AND games, and I think resident evil.

By the way, house of the dead (games) seems to have every zombie on god's green earth; stumbling and slow, run and jump out of nowhere, fat guys, THE HULK, frickin' ninja zombies, and wide range of beasts .. like the spiked silver surfer at the end of #3. Though I think the cause for this ridculous range was from ONE thing... did I miss anything?

So you think it's prudent to exclude zombie-like things because that s**t is fake anyway and could never happen but "real" zombies can so let's talk about them and them only?

J-bill, Although we agreed that 28 dl aren't zombies, we also agreed they should be in the category, otherwise the rabies type of zombie infection wouldn't be a zombie infection, and therefore zombies are a lot less likely to ever exist.

Remember?

Yeah, I was reminding her. We had a big discussion about this before.

Just a thought, this isn't actually about zombies, but it's in some zombie movies. You know the animals (dogs, crows, little freaks, ect) that get infected with the virus? Why is it that they can move, run, and flap their wings normally when a human is a stumbling... well, zombie? I know zombie birds dragging themselves pitifully on the ground aren't scary, but it doesn't make sense otherwise unless the animals are more resitant to the virus and a vaccine (or at least a way to delay the change) could be found in them.

Particularly, birds in resident evil. In a commercial, There was a huge swarm of them flapping their wings perfectly, weren't they under the same virus the zombies were, or were they getting more intelligent? Same with the dogs in the first one, they ran at her.
