Ok, let's take the classic Zombie Invasion.
Now, it's going to have to get infected somewhere; so we'll assume it's either
A ) a Government Lab
B ) Water, Air purifying plant
C ) Somewhere on the streets
D ) A morgue
That covers most of the origins.
Now
A ) Any Scientist would see the potential in this and experiment. Whoops...lots.
B ) A large inbuilt facility with potential to infect a city. Whoops...lots.
C ) Hundreds of people go "missing" per day. Whoops...lots.
D ) A morgue. Nom Nom Nom. Whoops...lots.
Removing the Head.
Has anyone ever tried to remove the head from a target? I'm guessing no one here, apart from maybe Fondant (
). It's not easy at all. Even with a shotgun at point blank, you still have to pull the trigger. Not easy when your brain's screaming "This can't be happening!", see Shaun of the Dead.
Ok, so there's now lots of Zombies milling towards you; and you really can't bring yourself to tear the entire face off someone you've never met. So... you get in touch with the Police.
The Police don't have the power to do anything, so in come the National Guard. That alerts the Press, who want candid photos. Whoops...more infected.
The National Guard want this covered up, so news blanket hits. But words will have leaked out, that means Terror! Look at how the Floods in South America caught America off-guard.
So, we're looking at Heavy Ordinance now. And that's gonna have to get past the U.N. Now France and Germany are not gonna vote for an Extermination Squad, are they? And Arabia/Russia will want to know what's ACTUALLY going on...
So, we've got Worldwide Distrust, Heavy Ordinance, Press Blanket and a growing number of unstoppable Zombies. What actually caused it? Is it E-Numbers? Is it Global Warming? Is it the American Super Soldier programme?
So, the CIA is next; and they're job is to protect the U.S. at all costs. So, enter Agent Orange.
No more zombies.
But wait...If Bird Flu and Bovine Spongiform Encaplopathy can jump species, what about Zombie-ness?
A single rabbit breaks free from the Napalm strike and heads into it's burrow. Nom Nom Nom.
The rabbits attack a fox.
The fox attacks a raccoon.
The raccoon attacks a bear.
The bear wanders into the nearby town. At which point it's blasted to pieces by all the NRA.
Utter panic. The NRA bunker up and blast anything.
Not scary huh? And that's from one Zombie.
Watch most Zombie films and there's very little time given to the Undead. It's usually about the Humans trapped and slowly losing their minds. Day of the Triffids did this very well; it doesn't matter how slow the Zombies move, it's how fast panic moves. Orson Wells nearly brought America to a standstill from a radio broadcast.
And if you still don't think that's possible today...you remember the kids caught playing Halo with the Hookers? Was on Sky, BBC and most of the newspapers.
Total fabrication. Check it up and see.
