The zombies are coming....
The way the economy has been, and the current political ineptitude, I foresee the day when zombies will rise up and come looking for brains. Not one to part with my cranium filling, I plan to be well armed for the impending attack. I am curious what everyone thinks would be the ultimate zombie killer.

Well, where is a kill shot on a zombie? Do you need pure horsepower, or precision?


Love shooting precision and long range. Big bores too!

Recent college grad, started a company called MK Machining where I'm developing a bullpup rifle chassis system.

"Zombie" from the Cajun "Tombee" which means "fallen" as in "dead."

So, a "kill shot" would be redundant. You're dealing with Voodoo.

If they invade Washington DC they will die of starvation, no brains there.

That means we're on the menu. I guess I'll be listed under appetizer.

In the spirit of the original post (& schoolboy discussions on how to kill dinosaurs, vampires & werewolves) here goes.

From the very first Romero Zombie films, I believe - remember the most certain stop shot was either to cut their heads off, or shoot them through the head, making sure the most primitive, central core, or reptilian, part of the brain was destroyed (including the medullum oblongata, ?spelling).

The horror film scientific logic ran something like this. The brain is analogous to a capacitor, hence the keep going even if most higher level functions are dead etc. So, the capacito must be fully discharged before taking the 'back off the TV set'.

Unfortunately, I do not have "Alice's" telephone number (Mila Jovovich). But she would be the one to ask.

Best of luck as, I understand, you can put a steak through the heart and cut the head off an ex-wife but they still keep coming after you..... sofa
