Zombies as in people who are vegetables, yeah.

I worked for a month in a care home for adults with learning disabilities/challenging behaviour and although I felt sorry for the people there, they were the closest things to zombies I've ever seen. There was one who even made the noises, drooled and ambled round. Meal times they all knew when to hang around the kitchen and would reach their hands round the door like something out of Shaun Of The Dead. It was really sad for them, as some of them had been abused but I couldn't help but notice their resemblance to the fictional zombies. Days were spent caring for them, doing your job and trying not to get cornered if they were in a bad mood. It's a hard job with crap pay and long hours that I'm glad I only did for a month or so.

Becoming a vegetable sounds like a really bad way to go. Are they violent if in a bad mood? Such as attacking others with blunt or sharp weapons? Or do they just attack you with there bare hands?

I doubt they could attack you to begin with.

HAVE YOU HEARD OF THIS SWEET WEBSITE CALLED FOUR CHAN DOT ORG?
[ *  *  *  *  *  *  *  * ]
What was that movie where a girl had a machine gun leg?
Wine in hand, in the other, Quran,
Both halal I do and haram,
In this incomplete world of a sham,
Neither Pagan I am, nor Musselman!


Omar Khayyam

Come, come, whoever you are,
Wanderer, idolater, worshipper of fire,
Come even though you have broken your vows a thousand times,
Come, and come yet again.
Ours is not a caravan of despair

They would attack with bare hands or sometimes throw objects. Any ornaments had to be such that they could be chucked without breaking like these wooden cats they had. One of them had a love of pushing folk downstairs and you had to watch everytime you went upstairs. Sometimes they would try to corner you and attack you. When you cleaned up, sometimes a collegue would have to help fend them off if they were trouble. When they were behaved they were fun-they may have been disabled but they could come out with some well amusing things even if they could only sign a few words. :)

A zombie is purely

A Haitian or Voodoo word for conjured slave
Referring to a creature that moves slowly and usually feasts on flesh, with an "undead" appearance."
Or a slow, and sluggish person.

A zombie would be guided by pure instinct. My guess is that noises would attract them, if they could still here. They'd also be resistant to pain. Not knowing when they're hurt. Like some humans are. Then there's the moan, maybe the moan would be the zombie trying to use it's vocal chords, but failing, or it might be a call to others.

We could always just use the power of science to make a highly contagious virus that happens to be a cross between rabies and gangrene to make Dawn Of The Dead style zombies.
The victim would be violent and trying to bite people, but also decomposing due to the gangrene.
You'd only need several infected people in a city centre to start it off,
any volunteers?
:P

Rabies is caused by a virus.
Gangrene is caused by bacteria.

Unless you have RAGT, this won't work unless you find an animal that can host both at the same time and transmit them without dying.

Damn... and I thought I had it all figured out.
Are there any other Gangrene alternatives?

No. At least, not if you want your victim to look like a zombie. And if you didn't notice, RAGT stands for Really Advanced Genetic Technology.

Also, rabies wouldn't make the zombies walk reals slow like they do in horror movies. Some weird virus that makes cells produce an opiate like heroin or morphine should do that trick. Problem is there's no such virus.

I prefer the modern zombies that can run as fast as you and dont get tired,
Like in Dawn Of The Dead 2004.
No morphine needed.
