I totally get what you're saying, but in movies, they should be logical. zombies, aliens, things like that should all have a logical story though.
i get that it's fake, but the goal is to create a fictional movie with the intention of revealing why it was able to happen the way it did.
I get that with aliens, dracula, werewolves,.............. but with zombies in particular, I feel like there is a big hole in the whole zombie thing and how they came about
1. howcome zombies don't eat eachother?
2. how do they know the difference between a live person and a zombie?
3. howcome they never attack animals? how do they know the difference between.
1. They do fresh human just tastes better. I've seen zombies eat each other in several movies (House of the Dead II (crappy yes)), and plenty of stories in books.
2. My guess is the same way a cat can tell a a cat from a dog. Just because their top human functions are gone doesn't mean everything else goes.
3. They do I remember a zombie ripping a cow through a barn wall but can't remember which movie.
I can't believe I'm actually getting into this discussion. According to the games the two best ranged weapons are shot guns and magnums handguns. Close range would be crowbar and chain saw (chain sword if you are a 40k fan). All makes sense as being dead kind of precludes a "kill shot" so something that will do more physical damage to their mobility would be most effective.

We/they intend on making a zombie documentary with the help of their members. Its pretty cool with bio pages, RP stuff if your into it, weapons discussions, filming help. storyline help, etc. Me? I'm on the roof with a cinderblock tied to a rope popping zombie heads!

zombies movies are getting so played out now. resident evil and 28 days later were prob the best ones. dawn of the dead, resident evil continuations sucked. zombieland is good because its funny. but yea not a fan of zombies anymore.
I'll have to look for that one but I enjoyed the one where a bunch of people were trapped inside a shopping mall with the zombies trying to get in at them.knicks791;4107164; said:

The thing is each fictional book movie etc. is an interpretation of a general idea thats why they vary so much. It always someone elses vision based on a generalized idea.
As for zombies eating zombies, it seems like all they are left with once reanimated is instinct giving them the ability to tell their own kind from others. I assume once they have eaten all the humans they would resort to cannibalism, sort of a Donner party situation slowly eating all the zombies until they finally deplete all food sources and dwindle away.
Most animals are too fast for zombies to catch thats why you seldom see them caught or eaten by zombies. Not to mention that instinctively they would avoid zombies as much as possible just as they do humans.
now that I have answered your questions to the best of my abilities I have one of my own. I know in some movies they do address the animals turning into zombies issue (such as resident evil) but few animals eat rancid meat and once they have would they in turn have a craving for living flesh turning the rest of the animals into flesh craving zombie beasts? Or would they continue to scavenge?, because it seams that being reanimated leaves us with our very basic instincts only doing what we need to survive.
I realize that I/we are getting way too deep into this and its all theory based on fiction but I like to see what other people think, and why the hell not Im having a good time with it.
