As man's desperation to live forever grows it is only a matter of time before a minor mishap in some laboratory jump starts the brain of a corpse who will give rise to the era of the undead.
To prepare for the inevitable phenomenon, you must first understand zombies. Zombies are a derivation of humans. They're formed in two ways; they either rise from the grave or they're converted when a zombie bites the brain of a normal member of the Homosapien species. The only way to stop them is to kill them and the the only way to kill them is to have something penetrate their brains. They don't shower and are usually poorly dressed. It is still a mystery whether there exists a food item other than healthy brains that will satisfy their hunger.
You will need great skill to survive in a world dominated by a never ending motorcade of zombies. The first, most vital step is to barricade your house. Not with wooden slabs and nails. Barricade your residence with a state-of-the-art security system. Unbreakable glass, foot thick walls, CCTVs, the entire deal. Make sure your house has only one narrow corridor leading in and out.
Next, you purchase a shotgun or two (preferably two). The advantage with shotguns is that the bullets scatter so you don't have to be particularly good at firing a gun to shoot a zombie in the face each time. You may also want to acquire a crowbar in case the zombies reach you.
You won't be able to get out much once the apocalypse is underway so you want to make sure that you have stocked up on ammunition, food and water. Your house should essentially have rooms full of these things, there is no other way.
The rest is a matter of common sense and if you are not able to survive after you have followed these instructions to the letter, then you probably don't deserve to anyway, so please don't be too hard on yourself.
I thought zombies didn’t have to be humans. Can’t any species really be considered a zombie when transformed? I could be wrong, but didn’t 28 days later have monkey zombies? I don’t like scary movies, so please forgive me if I got the wrong movie. I like your steps to prepare for the zombie apocalypse though. In destroying their brains, I would probably get some sort of chemical that they cannot handle and make them breathe it. I don’t know how well a gun would work on a zombie though. Don’t they usually have holes in their flesh anyway from people trying to shoot them? The type of weapon that is probably needed is a nuclear based weapon that will pierce through their flesh and just deteriorate them. That way, their brains can be destroyed, which is essential as you said. The crowbar, however, will probably not do that much either but I guess it’s something good to have. ENGL 106
