About this Episode:
More fun with flashlight effects. Again, I’m fairly happy with the results, but I’m even happier with the fact that Jeff dropped the damn thing so I don’t have to monkey around with lighting anymore.
Zombie Cliché Lookout:
It doesn’t matter how tough, fast, or careful you are, at some point, someone in your party is going to get munched on by a zombie. It generally starts with a secondary or tertiary character, just to establish the rules and remind the audience that things are, indeed, serious. Before long the writer’s blood-lust will need to be sated again, but he’ll need to up the ante. So if you’re in a zombie outbreak scenario, and it’s been a while since someone’s been bitten, watch out. Especially if you’re a supporting character whose death will have a devastating emotional effect on the protagonist. In that scenario you’re as good as dead.
Hmm well, there’s another character possibly gone to the zombie army. I thought some of those zombies wandering around looked like they’d been minor characters previously. I wonder if I’m right to think that the zombie’s bite converts their victim into a zombie? 😀
Well, there are two schools of thought on that one:
1. Everyone is infected with the zombie disease, and when they die, they turn. The zombie bite is just, for lack of a better term, totally nasty and 100% fatal.
2. The zombie disease is only spread through fluid exchange, primarily bites.
I like both, personally. Which one I used in BotD will be revealed in good time.
now i will explain it for duies:the zombie went all nom nom on the guy so the guy goes zombie and has to nom nom other pepole.
Yeah, that’s pretty much the long and short of it.
What are duies?
ment dumies
Hah, I see.
I, for one, cannot wait for the publication of “Zombies for Dummies.”
Subtitle: “Brains for those who eat ’em!”
I’d buy it.
Who wouldnt buy such a publication? Apart from sensible people and those with active social lives of course. And the iliterate. And those with zombiephobia.
You know, maybe that was a badly thought out statement. *sigh*
The illiterate are surely the bane of the publishing industry.
Ach, dude! Just clobber him with the torch!
