[pidman009]

Ah, we meet again 240p.

[soapfan124]

rofl

[DinoAvenger14]

I just read only one page, and i found out if a zombie eats too much flesh, it comes out its ass.

[ARTONY92]

I'd blow that guy......

[MrZamarron1]

1:09 lol oral history

[lfc011]

world war z love that book

[jessycrook]

i want to be a zombie

[MrDavidX96]

@jessycrook freaking quizling, have fun

[kellienicole16]

i lost all faith in the zombie apocalypse when i searched the genre of the survival guide and WWZ. look up the definition for solanum. he fooled half of america.

[rainbowsprinkle1]

@kellienicole16 and new zeland and australia and the uk, a large section of the world belived it aswell

[bro0talbitch17]

john mccain singing barbara striesand songs... i'm more scared of that then the whole zombie thing lmfao.

[DemonAssassin6661]

I found an m16 in my uncles ranch in texas but i read in the guide that the m16 is the worst game

[Wildcard1992]

Seems like the interviewer didn't get the Bill O' Reilly joke.

[darthdaris]

The interviewer didnt get any of his jokes and it made me mad.

[Wildcard1992]

@darthdaris Yeah. It felt so awkward.

[shamanic19]

got a little surprised when i saw that he was the son of the comedian Mel Brooks xD.....Positively surprised...

[CYMA80]

Look. With all the stuff our government is toying with, I won't put it past them to start some kinda of biohazardous sickness that will actually start the Zombie invasions. So yeah, it may be dumb, but I really do and have for about oh 20 years now, thought about what I am gonna do when the shit finally hits the fan. Me and the hubby actually have a few plans in case one falls through. lmao.

[fredjustsucks]

"I have such a good relationship with Mccain that I am voting for Obama."

[ghero57]

omg he's fucking hilarious!

[Mike21Hawk]

For real? Lol this is a funny concept for a comedy like Shawn of the Dead but to honestly BELIEVE that Zombies could have any chance of being real...?! Lol...This just further makes my opinion of how stupid humanity can be...This is why everyone hates America...

[doom337]

well the fact that your pretty close minded to it is stupid, how can you not consider the possibility of a zombie apocylpyse witht he tchnological and biological advancements weve had look at swineflu it mutated and then could be contracted by humans. another virus could do the same thing to somehow reanimate a body. you saynig this is like theres no way a spirit is real or that coldness exists

[Mike21Hawk]

Wow,the guy talking about a Zombie Apocalypse is calling me stupid. C'mon guy this is like a retard bashing an honor student LOL. And the modern advances we've had have had nothing to do with the re-animation of the dead. To keep the body moving/active when all the systems have shut off (DIED)...I'm sorry if I find this ridiculous. Listen, it's cool if you want to believe in the Zombie's, I'm sure their chilling on the couch with Santa, Tooth Fairy, and Easter bunny. This is my opinion, sorry :D

[doom337]

thats fine if its your oppinion but dont be close minded to it. im not saying zombies are real im sayng the possiblity of a virus mutating and somehow reconfiguring how the human body and mind works is there. at somepoint someone could very well create something that reanimates a body. we dont know, it could never happen or it could happen. but dont just throw it out the window because it sounds ridiculous. samething was said about the earth bieng round and look what happened :P

[Mike21Hawk]

My friend...The discovery of the earth's centrifugal nature...and the reanimation of a body void of ANY mental/physical activity are in two VERY different realms... However, if you are firm in your belief then I will not be the one to stifle it. May the day come when you prove me wrong and the deceased do rise. It'll be one hell of a good time.

[NarowAR07]

we'll see who is lauging when they are chewing on you're toes ^^

[Mike21Hawk]

Uh, me? Lol? I'm cracking up xD I love people like you that actually take this stuff genuinely xD Thanks for the laugh :D

[NarowAR07]

eheh no problem im not saying that i believe it will happend but who said its impossible :S impossible is nothing ;)

[Mike21Hawk]

Let's try something, sprout wings from your back, and take flight...I.E, impossible, Ownd :L

[NarowAR07]

if you look at it that way it is impossible unless i install some wings ^^

[OmegaOwA]

Zombies CAN be real. Are they going to be the slow, dumb, decaying zombies? Well obviously not. Can they be victims with zombie-like behavior;no longer using logic, are aggressive, and loss of human qualities? Certainly. Victims of rabies are what I'd call "zombies". The only difference is that they usually die before being able to make it a potential epidemic.

[Mike21Hawk]

Zombie...A deceased human being who has partially returned to life due to undeterminable causes.

A person with rabies...is a person with a sickness that more or less...acts like a dog.

[OmegaOwA]

Depends on your definition of a zombie. I'm not talking about the typical hollywood zombies. Honestly those defy science and logic. I'm talking about a potential real world "zombie".,putting aside anything you've seen in movies or books. And to me, "a person with a sickness that more or less...acts like a dog", along with highly contagious bodily fluids is pretty much what I'd call one.

[clanphear316]

its okay, when the zombie apocolypse if were alive he'll be one of the first to go

[xXTouchstoneXx]

its crazy he makes it seem so real it kinda freaks me out BUT ITS SWEET!!!!!!!

[Prunticus09]

*respect* i also read zombie survival guide and world war z, nd can now say that i am a full blown zombie believer. the zombies he describes r shit scary nd max ryts very convincingly

[icyrazor]

Read Survival guide and WWZ, ugh there's like some comedy in the guide but, I take it seriously because y'know with all this bio-chemical technology, it's pretty Inevitable.

[pbrskater26]

Yeah so do I, some one could make a strand of rabies virus that could be like that of quorintene! That freaks me out!

[icyrazor]

And who are the ones that are going to be prepared? We are.(Whoever read the guide)

[kujo665]

Yeah 28 days later style!! O.o although if it were like that one the guide would be completely....pointless lol

[joykillerzombiesdie]

THE Z-UNIT IS GONNA BE PREPARD

[icyrazor]

Fuck yeah man. Imma be ready with a M1 Garand and a model 94 Winchester by my side baby. Locked and loaded.

[joykillerzombiesdie]

KILL SOME ZOMBIE SHIT HEADS

[pidman009]

@icyrazor You learned nothing from his books, hm?

[Solanum20]

I like your thinking but the guide itself says, movies are a scource of entertainment...... Besides if Zombies can Run and can only die from a head shot, all hope is lost :(

[CipherMind117]

Lol

[CipherMind117]

If zombies ever exist, it will be zombies like the ones in Left 4 Dead, not the special infected, but the normal ones. They will just be extremely aggressive humans that have no intelligence.

[MILOrach]

I do know one thing for sure, CipherMind117. If zombies ever DO exist, it will be people like you, saying "it will be like this" that will get people killed.

As much as I'd like it, the chances of a virus or outbreak: zero to nil?

[CipherMind117]

Yeah it's never going to happen, so why not have fun speculating ;)

[ShaDOwNiNjA79]

he is funny i have read both his books

[zzBillyz]

haha he's funny

[midprod]

max brooks rox!!!!!!

[Sypher272]

I have read both of his books many times and love his writing style, but i did not know he was a writer for SNL, that just gives him more cool points.
