Zombieland!!!

[Sir Sebastian Phoenix]

It's all about a good pole arm and a reliable 12 ga. ( I share the guilty pleasure)

My Zombie plan...oil rig, some scuba gear, Desalinator, and a couple of fiesties ladies.

[Rani Zemirah]

I have a Z-Day schedule, myself... (which also works well for foreign invasion, civil war, para-military coup, etc...) bolt cutters, U-Haul, Hardware store, sporting goods store, Wal-Mart, toilet paper outlet... 

Those are the basics, anyway... LOL

[maelstrom0370]

I had the perfect Z-Day plan when I was on the Island.  Limited amount of zombies (c'mon! some of those guys have been dead since the 1800's), large ferries for getting to and from the island, you could sink most of the docks leaving one or two safe places to put in, and there's a BIG FREAKIN MILITARY FORT there!!! It may be old, but it's still at the top of a hill and surrounded by stone walls.
'Course, now that I'm back in the real world, I'll hafta re-think things a bit.  My parents house could be made very Zombie proof...given about 24 hours notice. 

[WindChime]

that movie looks great I can't wait to see this one, almost has a Shaun of the dead vibe

[Rani Zemirah]

I'm hoping it's a little more tongue-in-cheek, and a little less far-to-obvious slapstick, though... I like at least a little subtlety in my comedy!  Maybe I'm a zombie snob, though... 

[Lord Finger]

I'm planning to see this movie, too, just maybe not in the theater.

As for preparedness, I'll have to rely on a leatherman, a machete, a 12 gauge and all the shells I can carry. I'm in trouble for food and defensible shelter, so I might be going out with a bang if the situation is severe.

[Rani Zemirah]

So... this seems like a pretty good place to discuss Z-Day survival...  Anyone have other plans on the drawing board?!?  Share the wealth, or at least the ideas!!!  LOL

[Noble Dreg]

I think this movie looks awesome, in spite of the fact that Woody Harrelson is in it...

My feelings exactly!

[Noble Dreg]

Oh, for the record...I can't believe no one has mentioned the number one close quarters zombie survival tool...a trusty Huskavarna chain saw.  You'll never run out of ammo, gas maybe but not ammo.

[Rani Zemirah]

I'm tellin' ya... no one ever survives the close quarters stuff!  Far too many zombies, not enough gas tank capacity, and if it's electric then the undead always find a way to cut the cord... 

Nope, I'll be sitting on the roof of my high rise, fire proof, moat protected, well booby trapped, razor wire encircled stronghold... with my handy-dandy rocket launcher, and just take 'em out a city block at a time...

Hey, it's a great plan... 

[Laird Fraser of Lovatt]

Hmmmm, let's see... *rumaging around in closet*  Rifles... check.  Shotguns... check.  Handguns... check.  Clips, clips and more clips... check.  Cases of ammo... check.  Swords... check.  Axes & tomahawks... check. *digs deeper* Warhammers... check.  Blunt instruments... check.  Leather clothing(keeps out the teeth)... check.  Food... check.  Water... check.  Miscellaneous emergency supplies... check.

Civil war, armed insurrection, terrorist attack, riots, hurricanes, zombie hordes... i plan for everything in a general kind of way .

[Rani Zemirah]

Fraser, I think I want you on my team, k?!? 

[Laird Fraser of Lovatt]

Don't worry, I'll let you in before i close the siege(storm) shutters and bar all the doors.     There isn't a pass word... if you can talk, you're not a zombie.

[Anna Iram]

Now my place isn't big enough to stockpile enough Doritos and M&M's ammunition to outlast the Zombie hordes, so I plan to go mobile. Got my bugout bag packed and ready. A crowbar is my weapon of choice along with a hatchet. Good for killing Zombies and for breaking into shops for supplies. Of course I'm hoping for the slow shuffling Romero kind of Zombies rather than the fast running and thinking Dawn of the Dead dudes.

Oh, yeah. Can't forget some good reading material for the holdout.

I suggest a 22 Long Rifle for the Zombies most 22 rifles and pistols hold lots of ammo makes little noise to draw attention of other zombies, and since its head shots only you don't need a lot of stopping power.  For up close and personal my choice is a warhammer also handly for breaking into stores and other places for supplies.  Football sholder pads work great for keeping the zombies off the neck works well for vampires too.
