Fantastic response!
My theory is as follows: Despite what the literature may tell you, there will never be an instance in which people must be shot in the brain to be killed. Muscles do not work if not being delivered oxygen by the blood stream, and therefore blood loss will affect them the same way. If anything, the zombies will be like feral humans, with their logic centers of their brains deteriorated by fever and disease, they will be little more than animals. Animals feel pain, animals can not live without blood, animals can be crippled. And animals can be eaten if you are deperate. Therefore any weapon would be serviceable to take them out, as long as it was effective against a human target. I would choose for myself and friends a cross section of bolt action hunting rifles, and buckshot 12 gauge shotguns, whichever available. For handguns, a single .45 1911 and a backup revolver in .357 each, again whichever type available in your area. Now, in World War Z the rifle they issue was supposed to be a modified version of the AK-47 which they had tons of lying around somehow. But I find the classic interpretation of zombies to be mildly ridiculous. |

best survival would be to go with a group, hole up somewhere, and don't send 4 people out after one, we all know from the movies that that doesn't really help....
Lots of food, ammo, medical supplies. Rotate watches. All the guns in the world can'tt help without teamwork and strategy |

So far we have 5 main characters and am looking for extras for zombies. We have lots of real guns, but little blanks so expect lots of CGI muzzle flashes
 . I have a good video editor and people who know how to use them, so editing will be decent. We have a decent budget since a few people on the team have jobs, so we can buy lots of corn syrup and red dye (a must for a zombie movie is BLOOD). We need a decent camera, the hand cam we have can only allow us nothing more than a crappy "Clover Field" style rip off.The basic story was written by me in 20 minutes during a study hall, but someone else wrote a script out of it which I still have to read and revise. Zombie makeup will be hard to get but we'll figure it out. I'm very pleased with the story, and the ending is cool (I'm the last one alive in the story, yay!) I'll try to make a dvd out of it, or send you a copy to download on the net so you can watch it. But first, I have to make it. Two things worry me though. Acting and gun handling. Most of the people I'm working with on the movie aren't very good with guns (except one who is airforced trained, but don't ask me how since he's 16  ), and some parents won't let their kids use real guns, so I have to give them airsoft guns (which I hate doing). Also, even MY acting is a little wooden. I know I'm taking this too seriously, but I wanted to show this to some people who could get me a better chance at becoming a film director.

Any Estimated time it will be done? In september ill be getting a new gun too. Looking at a savage weather warrior. Something about firing .308, .243, .260 (my fav, but expensive) and .22-250 (cyotes,unlimited bag, year round) in the same gun appeals to me.
You going to make sure obscure/classic guns get used? Like your nongun broomhandle? Last edited by k9870; 05-17-2009 at 01:40 AM. |

Hey GM, nice to hear about you making a film. I love making movies myself, although due to living in a smallish town with few willing people I always had pretty small casts and small stuff.
I took a film class once, made a crossover of Mario and The Sopranos, which was entertaining to say the least. Weapon of choice? .45 ACP Fireflower. |
