Handy Dandy Hitting Machines


The baseball bat is recognized along with several other blunt objects a traditional way of killing zombies. The best part about these hitting machines is that it is very hard to miss your target (unless you are Wendy Torrance in Kubrick’s The Shining).Beating the living dead’s head in with a crowbar, or even a hockey stick, is a method that is still being practiced in zombie entertainment today. Using this method requires a large team along with you, all armed, in case you turn around the next corner and bite off more then you can chew. There are various results from trying to bash a zombie to death (well…deader) Results include, though are not limited to 1) “I totally worked that zombie and now my golf club is stuck in his head, and there is a zombie behind me gnawing on my shoulder” 2) “I can’t seem to even damage this zombie and I think he’s mocking me with his moaning insults”, and 3) “I swear I killed that exact zombie once before and I don’t think I was really meant for this world and I give up”. There is one big advantage to using a smashing object rather than a gun; you don’t have to choose which zombies need a bullet (since ammo is in short supply), but every member of the walking dead is just waiting for a good whacking from an ironing board. How do you know you are wasting bullets? Three words: living dead skeletons. You know the ones. You blow them up with a missile launcher and they fly into pieces…and a couple seconds later their bones have reformed and they laugh at you, and you cry, and then you get mad, then cry some more, then WHAM! A frying pan to where the sun doesn’t shine! That leads me to another point. The skeleton zombies are the easiest to kill with a fire extinguisher, axe, or another zombie skeleton’s bones. Don’t you hate it when you think that the skeleton zombie is dead, but then some dark, evil, and sinister power puts them back together again? Argggh! In fact that is when you’re dealing with something even bigger than zombies and its best to get the hell out the there while you still can (and if you can’t, your likely playing a Nintendo game or trapped in a dimension that’s set in the medieval times). Once the zombies start to infest the world, I would recommend using some sort of blunt object to send them back to hell, or at least gang up with someone slower than you are.

---$ean--- Yes!!! i absolutly adore blunt objects! oooh the satisfying crunch on your old 5 foot baseball bat (big sucker) on someones head!! brass knuckles would be nice too, but it dont think they're considered a blunt weapon. Bottles full of acid work well on zombies, and it keeps the whole blunt style, but adds a poky twist! muahaha

ZOMBIE SNAKES!

Once the movie Snakes on a Plane was on the big screen, audiences and viewers couldn’t possibly think of a situation that could be worse. To me there is an obvious worst case scenario. Zombie snakes on a Plane…!!!! Zombie snakes break all rules of the zombie survival guide. They can creep into small places and their speed wouldn’t really be reduced to any significant measure. Also they don’t moan or leave hints of their whereabouts. Once snakes turn into the living dead, they are more relaxed and don’t have much taste for human flesh. They just have a taste for hurting you for no apparent reason, and I mean a snake bite to the eye….red swelling so much you can’t even see…throat getting itchy and starting to close off because unfortunately your allergic to snake bites as bad as some people are to bee stings…you catch my drift. A snake’s venom is a powerful weapon, but once zombified, that deadly power is enhance to turning its victims into mindless zombies. Also now people have a reaso...

A word or two about zombies that can run...

Zombies that can run are starting to put humans at a serious disadvantage. Running zombies are a greater threat then the slow (though consistently hard-working) ones. Humans can no longer simply take their time trying to blow zombies’ heads off with their over and under 12 gauge shotguns. With running zombies in the mix, all humans can do, ironically, is well…run. The zombie infestation will only spread more rapidly with this running technique that the zombies developed. This means humans will be facing zombies in greater numbers than those seen in classic zombie movies. Dawn of the Dead , directed by George A. Romero, demonstrated the power of the slow, moaning, how-the-hell-is-he-catching-up-to-me-when-I’m-motoring-on-a-scooter-I-found-by-the-abandoned-cardboard-factory zombie. They literally infest all of Philadelphia within weeks. The Dawn of the Dead remake has ravenous, bloodthirsty zombies that seem to never stop chasing their victims. Once this so called plague that re-animate...

Beware of the Zompiks!

People always believe that zombies will eat whatever they get their hands on (juicy melons, rump, a liver, or a pair of Kidneys). Yes they are frightening… but not as frightening as the real picky zombies. They are known as Zompiks. A regular zombie would eat your internal organs without even questioning the quality, but the Zompiks would never take a whiff of those internal organs unless they are salted for weeks then sprinkled with human eye flakes. How do they salt these human internal organs? Well you have a net that is floating on top of the ocean water marinating raw meat with sea salt. Once both sides of the bloody mess have the sea salt on them, the Zompiks will use their mindless zombie slaves to pull the net in onto the shore and let the internal organs dry within the sunbeams. It’s a simple method and the zombie slaves are awarded with the left over human limbs, because the Zompiks believe the limbs are eaten by the more unintelligent zombies. Some times the Zompiks eat the ...
