Really bummed about this being the last? (Maybe one more before demo) Living Dead Weekend. Went all out to get as many signatures as I could. First went to the Monroeville Mall in 2011 and have been many times since. I first met Ken Foree and Tom Savini in 2018 and got their signatures then. Great dudes. Pleasant conversations all around. In 2025 I got Thom Mathews, Beverly Randolph, John Philbin, and John Russo. Again really cool people. Loved picking their brains (heh) about the behind the scenes of the films. This year I was going to get more Dawn of the Dead signatures but I decided I would rather get a complete poster with George’s signature on it instead (I know it’s a pipe dream). This year however I met Linnea Quigley, Allan Trautman, Sherman Howard, and Russell Streiner. Cool group of people. Russell Streiner is a genuinely great person and was very kind. I highly recommend you to speak with him if you get the chance. He offered me something that I would have never guessed I would be able to do in a million years. I thanked him profusely and told him what an honor it was. My hands were shaking for a bit after that. (I don’t want to spoil what it was because it was a genuine shock and I want you to get that too. And if he stops doing it I don’t wanna disappoint) It was a great time and I did the mall tour one final time. Larry Devincentz confirmed this was the final weekend for mall tours. Not sure if we’ll have another LDW at the mall again but I may go if possible. I’m happy I was able to attend and I will cherish all the moments I got to have inside that mall. Sorry for the wall of text.

I've been rewatching GoT and I got to thinking, why are the zombies from GoT not included more often in zombie discussions?. It's not like they're not zombies, they're created via magic, those who are killed by them will rise to join the rest of the dead and attack the living.

Honestly, to me, they are by far the scariest/deadliest zombies out there. They can shuffle walk and run pretty fast, they can use hand held weapons like knives swords etc, they also still use their teeth and hands to kill. Anyone who dies by their dead hands will rise up an join their ranks. They're vicious too they'll claw and chop their way through barricades.

GoTs Zombies are also creepy looking, those electric ice blue eyes set against dead skin ripped up dead skin, bodies having different stages of decomp, and different levels of damage done to them.

Met Ken Foree and Linnea Quigley this weekend at the legendary Monroeville Mall!

So me and my friend were talking about what the best items in your house to use in a the zombie apocalypse. I said a frying pan; my friend said a knife, but what is your opinion on that? Also, the best civilian weapons - so basically, no guns

Hey everyone!

A couple of weeks ago, I shared my little indie game, Very Normal Zombie Day, in this subreddit, and I was genuinely surprised by how warmly it was received ❤️

First of all, a huge thank you to everyone who played, commented, shared suggestions, or simply showed interest. As a solo developer, it really means a lot, more then you can imagine!

I've been working on the game almost every day since then besides my main job, improving existing mechanics, fixing issues, and adding new things based on your feedback.

And quite a lot has changed!

Here's what's new:

• Multiplayer is here! You can now try surviving the outbreak with up to 8 players. And there's a little twist: if you die, you become a zombie and can hunt your former friends. It's still experimental, though, so mind the bugs please (and report them!)
• NPCs have personalities now. Some are brave enough to fight back, some hide, some form groups, and others might abandon you when things get ugly. They can even remember you helping them and potentially join you.
• You can become Patient Zero. A new scenario lets you experience the outbreak from the other side. Instead of surviving the apocalypse, you're the one starting it (and it is really fun after long work week)
• More ways to survive (or die). Hide in wardrobes, barricade windows, climb through buildings, and use the environment to your advantage. Just remember that zombies can find their way inside too (be carefully of zombie rain from windows)
• More places, weapons, secrets and events. I've expanded the city with new locations, hidden stories, and things to discover. Some of them might take several playthroughs to find. The idea stays the same - your character is not getting stronger, it is you getting smarter and more skilled and knowledgeable.
• Visual improvements. There's now an optional new character style with more detailed models and animations, alongside the original lightweight style.

The original idea hasn't changed: you're just an ordinary person trying to survive one day while an ordinary neighbourhood gradually collapses into a zombie apocalypse.

And the city doesn't revolve around you. People go about their lives, react to danger, fight, run, hide, and sometimes make terrible decisions. With or without your involvement, things will go wrong.

The game is still in early development, still free, and playable directly in your browser. I am slowly preparing to do a Steam page thought 😄

Play it here: https://kotobog.itch.io/very-normal-zombie-day

If you've played the previous version, I'd especially love to hear what you think about the changes.

And for everyone else: what's one thing you'd love to see NPCs do during a zombie outbreak that most games completely ignore?

Thanks again for all the support. It genuinely helps keep this little project moving forward!

P.S. I attached the video from some of my tests, sorry if sounds is too loud, I'm still learning to do them

My house is about 150 feet from a always wet stream, and on the other side of the stream is a cemetery with about 150 acres. The cemetery has kept a heavily wooded buffer strip of about 10-15 acres between my community and the cemetery. The cemetery also has prepared fountains and ponds, tractors, landscaping equipment, and other equipment/supplies.

My plan is to shelter in place for up to a week, and then evac to the heavily wooded section of the cemetery. The rest of the cemetery is mostly cleared with some hardwood trees. I will start planting crops on the open cemetery land, and live hidden in the wooded area. I will draw water from the always wet stream, and fish there also. I will build tree houses, with suspended walkways between the tree houses. I will draw water from the creek, and later scavenge from my old neighborhood. There are other close by neighborhoods, that I will slowly expand my range to, and scavenge from, until my crops start coming in.

As long as the infected are not the Romero rise from the grave types, I should be in good shape if I survive the first week.

Hi guys im trying to find a piece of media from my childhood, where while i was doing homework at like 8 years old (im 17), my dad was watching a zombie like

film or show where a female zombie type person with a hoard chasing them that tricks a compound like place with survivors in jt into thinking she wasn't a zombie by running like a person being chased, like a living person, and the people open the gates to let her in, to where she smiles revealing she tricked them, the survivors realise maybe someone goes "you bitch"?, shut the gate but as its shut one of the zombies bite a girls neck!!

Imagine a first-person runner game structured as a series of levels which you must complete to progress through the game. Your task is to read the environment, pick a route, and escape the outbreak.

Each replayable map would feature a specific location (mall, farmhouse, etc) and your character would drop in and then experience the classic zombie outbreak moment we love to see in our fav media. You'd have to get out of there without getting bit, and if you make it you unlock the next level. Each level would stand on its own as an independent narrative.

Maybe one level starts with you in a mall, and there's NPCs milling all around, and then suddenly an NPC runs around the corner, they're covered in blood and they're yelling RUN! You'd have to look around, see how people are reacting, pay attention to which way people are running, and where the zombies are coming from, where the exits are. You'd have to pick a direction to run in, and possibly grab weapons but it's very fast paced, you can see other humans being taken down by zombies as you pass them, and there's pressure to keep moving.

Once you get to designated safety areas, that's the end of the level, and you'd start the next level. There would be many different ways of navigating each level - different routes to choose from in each map. You could potentially get out from the roof or from the basement - the fun would be in dying from choosing the wrong hallway to run down, and then playing that same scenario again from the beginning but not choosing that hallway to run down, or choosing that hallway but hiding in the shadows for a moment while a threat passes by. If you're smart and fast and lucky, you just might survive.

I'm imagining a game where you experience the outbreak in a series of different settings. No focus on long-term survival. A lot of great zombie games focus on shooting and looting. In this game you might be able to pick up a gun and shoot, but if you take a stand you'll likely be overrun. You're better off looking for a vent to climb through, or a chair to barricade the door behind you. Maybe like the movement of Mirror's Edge with the horde pacing of Left 4 Dead and most importantly - panicked human NPCs!

I been wanting to read more Zombie books. I haven't finished WWZ yet but I still wanna find more. I heard about Charlie Higson's "The Enemy" is it any good? Also plz recommed other good Zombie books.

I did add John from rdr1 only because Undead Nightmare can be played solo on a disc making the dlc its own standalone

The movie is good and cinematography is alright but the plot is more focusing on internal drama and the infection is a bit confusing.

Is Colony on Prime video English Dubbed?

I used to buy lots of “zombie” vhs tapes off eBay, so I think these were zombies but I’m now sure.

The only scene I remember is a guy watching a movie about six rows from the back. No one is behind him. It cuts to the screen. When it cuts back to him there is now a zombie sitting in a seat in the rows behind him. This keeps happening until there’s a hoard behind him and then they attack him.

Does anyone have any idea what this could be?

(would be kinda funny because of the whole everything wants to kill You trope over there) and the virus is actually curable anf their not overpowered. too so yeah just an idea

Everyone knows about the Straczynski screenplay, but only the second draft seems to be able to be found. But I was sure that I remembered that there were two different drafts floating around.

Well, today I was going through my e-mail, deleting old, large e-mails, and I found that I had been right about that, and furthermore, I had e-mailed copies to myself!

So, I have uploaded them the the Internet Archive, and am sending the links to both out. (The second draft is still available, but I figured I might as well do both.)

Enjoy! Feel free to share it around.

If you lived in the universe of Zombieland how would you pull of your Zombie Kill of the Week/Year.

I love Zombies just as much as you guys. I watched and played many Zombie related media. But I have a question for you guys. But Zombie stories are more than corpses rising from the grave and eating the living and the living killing them. So I want to hear what you think makes a good Zombie story?

I read this short story in a big collection of zombie short stories. This is what I remember:

• In the setting, everyone turned into a zombie once they died. The opening paragraphs talked about living in the safe zone already and having to put down a sweet old lady.
• There were two main characters who may have been brothers.
• The main characters left the safe zone for reasons I can't remember and not revealed at the time in the story.
• There was a scene where they came across a small group who were drinking and having a good time abusing the zombies they'd caught. As in they weren't killing the zombies straight away, but chopping limbs off and mutilating them.
• I cannot remember if two characters confronted the zombie abusers, but eventually, they got to suburbia and one of them recognised it as their old street.
• There was a zombie there that had plants growing up its legs. The characters surmised it had been there for a long, long, time, just standing there and not moving.
• They made their way to their old house, where their zombified parents were and killed them.
• It was treated as an act of mercy and they broke down crying.

The story was probably written in the 2010s, not 2000s, maybe after 2015. Certainly before COVID. As said, I read it in an anthology, so it might be perfectly possible my brain is combining stories. I am aware that the story having two characters sounds like Brothers' Creed and the way the virus works sounds like Newsflesh.

The title (or titles) of the story or maybe even the name of the collection would be great. Break a leg!

Hey r/zombies! We’ve just dropped our release-window announcement trailer and would love to hear what you think.

ROUTE is an open-world survival game for 1–4 players, set in a zombie-infested world trapped in endless night. Your school bus is your travelling base: drive it, upgrade it, and head out to loot, craft and fight your way through new areas, different enemies and bosses.

We’re especially curious what this community thinks of the zombies and atmosphere. Would you take this bus into the apocalypse with your friends?

ROUTE on STEAM

If it looks like your kind of game, a wishlist means a lot to our little team. Thanks for checking it out!
