Zombie Origins

TomCo

Zombies come in all shapes and sizes,

Here are some of your more common zombies.



Voodoo Zombie
A zonbi (zombie) is a person who is believed to have died and been brought back to life without speech or free will more likely though Voodoo Zombies are those which are created by administering drugs to induce a death like state and other drugs to maintain this state.




Science Zombies
Zombies created through the use of science, usually an infectious agent which kills the host and reanimates it as a hungry bitey zombie. Sometimes the recently deceased are also effected. This is the most common type of zombie.



Alien Zombies
Similar to science zombies. Alien zombies are created by the application of some form of alien force, cosmic rays, space beams, parasites, or pathogens from outside space. Alien Zombies may also develop unusual features inheritent to their alien origin, tenticles and that.




Post additional information to expand the categories and elabourate on the current ones.

Crimson Heads aka 'Running Zombie'
Similar to Science Zombies but because of further mutation it causes the zombie to become in a 'berserk' type state, increasing it's aggressiveness and also makes the zombie run instead of shamble. Crimson Heads are extremely dangerous, keep your distance and aim for the head. Fire is also another good way to silence Crimson Heads



Intelligent Zombies
" What!? Intelligence you say? But they are dead! "

Yes you may be right but evidence from sources say that zombies, although with little or no reasoning power or logic, still show some displays of intelligence. Even still if this intelligence is not much, zombies have shown to adapt by using blunt weapons as an advantage to get to their prey. Communication between other zombies has also been witnessed.

Yep, I really hope, come Z-day, we'll be dealing with shamblers, not sprinters.

How and ever, hope for the best, prepare for the worst!

Zombie Strippers
Due to a very specific mutation on the X chromosome, the virus remains purified in female hosts. Leaving them fully sentient, ravenously hungry and very very dangerous. Interestingly enough, any men bitten by Zombie Strippers will become the generic braindead shambling corpses that we all know and.. fear. As with all zombies, a headshot is the only thing that will stop a Zombie Stripper. Do it quickly, before they offer you a lap dance....



Not quite so hot anymore either....

As you can see there is a diversity of zombies. What if there was a sort of synergy between them? What if there were zombies who differed in abilities such as: enhanced senses i.e. scent, hearing, sight, and taste. Afterall living food must be so tasty.

Example: A group of zombies have in them a zombie who smells, hears or sees a human then that individual zombie sets the trigger for other zombies to follow since they usually follow the crowd. I really love the metaphor of that

The logical reasoning behind there being zombies of enhanced sensory ability is this: Various effects caused by zombie infection.

Not everyone turns so fast and even so some do die a lot faster than others when bit by zombies. Blood loss, trauma and shock may have some effect on the infected host.

The central nervous system would naturally be the effected element in hosts unless there were other supernatural causes. So as the effects are incurred on the host in proportion to how fast they die or turn will affect their various faculties when they become zombies.

Zombie Werewolf



Holy ****ing ****! :eek:

Question: Would this be someone who was originally a werewolf (ye know changing on the full moon and all that) then got exposed to a zombie virus, so they would then be a zombie, but on the full moon they would be this?

What do ye think? Cos I reckon we need to prepare for this kinda thing just in case.

Not a problem. I have watched Dog Soldiers far too many times for a furball to be a problem.

Like zombies, there are many kinds of creature that fall into the "werewolf" name.
I woudnt rule out zombification of a were-creature, but id be sure the pack or clan would have it marked for instant death.

Bill Nighy saying "Abomination" in Underworld... only he could say it with such venom and repulsion. Gives me goose bumps

Hey Guys,

I was googling around, and saw you guys talking about Zombies and Werewolves. Well I'm a huge zombie movie fan, but I also love Werewolf movies like American Werewolf in London (one of my all time favs), so much so that a friend of mine and I, wrote a Werewolf Apocalypse movie script about 3 years ago.

Long before Twilight books, or bad Wolfman remakes, we came up with a Werewolf Virus that has bitten victims not only change into Werewolves, but even their dead victims as well. The result is our new movie, Zombie Werewolves Attack!

It’s just been picked up for distribution by Troma Entertainment from New York. Learn more at our website, http://www.zombiewerewolvesattack.com , or follow us on twitter: @zombiewerewolf If enough people see the movie, it may lead to an even bigger sequel.

I look forward to more posts, and you guys forgot one class of zombie. French surrealist zombies. They come back from the dead and try to get jobs lol http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0378661/
