The Zombie Apocalypse is an event I feel I've been prepped for my entire life. Assuming typical scary movie rules apply: in order to survive I must find a rag tag group of people who are sane as well as very skill at using weapons. To help prevent being that that cliché person that trips, my team and I would raid a shoe store for well fitting, non slip shoes. Next we would wear various layers of coats just in case if we were caught, zombies would struggle to get to our flesh and we would have time escape from their grasp. Next we would travel north and go to a region that was not very populated prior to the apocalypse.…

We had been attempting it for months. We never thought that we would get far at all.

A zombie outbreak spreads, you are alone with no shelter, food, and most importantly, no form of protection. As you are searching for refuge, you come across a room and you see two possible weapons, a gun and a Katana sword. What would you choose? Both have great qualities to look for in a weapon, but only one can keep you alive and protected from the zombies for a longer amount of time. Remember that in order to survive you must choose a weapon that makes it easy to kill, but will last you long enough to keep you alive.…
World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War – Homework 2 As we get further into the novel, there are a lot of zombie themes that become very clear. One theme I noticed was the failure of technology and the reverting to older, medieval-like weapons and traditions. This idea strongly presents itself in the interview with David Forbes who talks about humanities use of castles and medieval customs for survival. Technology in a lot of instances became useless since resources such as ammunition were limited in some areas. This caused the people to find other weapons for protection.…
Zombies are a phenomenon that almost everyone has heard about. Shambling mindless corpses trying to feast on the flesh of the living. The idea of the undead has been around for almost as long as people and their culture have. There have been multiple cultural variants of zombies and ideas of how to keep the dead from coming back to haunt the living such as the theory behind the origin of the tombstone was that it was literally a giant rock that cavemen rolled on top of graves to keep the body pinned down if the corpse reanimated. The first modern zombies originated in Haiti and has become a massive part of American culture through the stories of American authors and reporters that had visited Haiti in the nineteen twenties and thirties.…
The creation of monsters like vampires and zombies presents itself as an allegory the “day to day existence.” Articles like “Why Vampires Never Die” by Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan and “My Zombie, Myself: Why Modern Life Feels Rather Undead “ by Chuck Klosterman emphasizes the correlation between folktale and reality. The difference between Folktale and reality is that folktale and reality is that folktale are variations of stories from many cultures, while reality is something that exist and can be proven. This creates room for the idea of death to be a significant aspect to the rise of monstrous beings, as listed prior. The idea of what happens after life, known as death varies amongst cultures and…
The idea of zombies has been around for longer than you would think. The original idea of zombies came from Haitian Voodoo. The Haitian Priests wanted to resurrect the dead by using dark magic. When a person annoys his or her community too much, they hire a priest to zombify him or her. The priest would make him drink a deadly poison from the porcupine fish.…
Apocalyptic Issues and Their Effect on My Family There are many issues that arise from an impending zombie apocalypse that effect my family and I. However, the assessment of these issues determine whether my family and I live or die. For instance, issues that determine whether it is ethical or not to kill a zombie question my survival, since restraining a zombie would be more difficult. In addition other key issues that affect the survival of my love ones…
Looks like you’re in a pickle, and have just been ‘zombified’. It’s certainly likely that you’re puzzled on how to move on with this fresh lifestyle (tons are). Well it’s a darn virtuous miracle that a zombie happened to stumble upon this essay, it has wondrous advice, and can easily create an average, operational and undead zombie! It’s quite an immense step if I do say so myself. Everybody must have an infection left by that outbreak of distasteful and disastrous parasites that turn living animals into zombies (I guess you already know that.)…
“A lot of modern life is exactly like slaughtering zombies.” This statement is true in the eyes of Chuck Klosterman, where he expresses opinions in his article “My Zombie, Myself: Why Modern Life Feels Rather Undead”. In correlation, to the movie Warm Bodies directed by Jonathan Levine one can see that there are many things that we can relate to in modern life that can also be seen in a zombie apocalypse world. For example, in both worlds you can see that once we adapt to our daily lives of work, school, invasion of zombies, and disease, we end up developing a predictable routine in life, no matter the situation. All in all, I believe that there are similarities in a zombie flesh eating world and in the modern world we live in today, we ourselves…
Could you ever imagine waking up one day and everything was different? Not being able to be sprawled out in your perfectly good bed each morning, but waking up in various locations for protection. Having to carry some sort of weapon every time you go outside just in case you run into a pack of zombies looking for fresh flesh. This all seemed too much and it was only my first year at Missouri State. A zombie apocalypse was not something I expected from college, especially to be one of the few survivors’ left on campus.…
