Everyone running in all different directions, screaming bloody murder, furniture spewed and knocked over, and paper being thrown in the air for no apparent reason.

Medics, engineers, security, hunters and gatherers, and…

movies, but our movie is about the what everyone has been talking about, zombies. Yes, I am sure everyone has heard of some type of zombie T.V. show or some type of zombie movie, but to actually live in a zombie apocalypse is quite frightful. You can go joke around with your friends about how you think you’re gonna survive the apocalypse or you play all these zombie games “preparing for what is yet to come”, but for “what yet to come” is here it’s hard and dangerous. You think you’re going to…

Throughout watching all 3 movies I have learned alot about the spread of disease and what is real and fictional about them. In order of most to least real, Outbreak, Contagion, and World War Z were the three movies that helped me to learn about disease. Outbreak was by far the most realistic scenario for the spread of disease (motaba) since it had a host animal and showed the process that is used to learn more about the disease.
