Nice trailer indeed!

I'm not a Brad Pitt fan, but this movie looks really good. I hope it's as good as the trailer.

I wish they'd make the Feed series into a movie.

I just saw the trailer in the theater yesterday, when I went to see "The Impossible"... not a big Pitt fan, but what the heck... it's got zombies, so I'm in... plus, they are fast, crawl over each other zombies, which makes them even more menacing!

Don't forget leaping. They're leaping zombies.

The whole "fast zombie" thing really struck me as hopeless back when 28 Days Later came out. If the zombies are able to run, how the hell does anyone stay alive, especially if they are ridiculously outnumbered?

Hyper-speed zombies seems like an even more impossible (can something be "more" impossible?) situation.

But it's a sci-fi movie, so I'll probably watch it when it comes out on DVD.

I think fast zombies make a zombie apocalypse more believable, really. Shuffling zombies wouldn't really stand a chance, even in large numbers.

Think Outside the Fox.

in the book the shambling zombies do well because of human stupidity

Well, I would say that'd take a lot of human stupidity, but Einstein said human stupidity was infinite.

It strikes me more as horror then scifi but yeah I'll definitely watch it,........on DVD.

For what it's worth, I don't think fast moving zombies or infected would be that untenable,....in theory. As long as they burn out (expire) quickly proportional to energy expenditure it makes sense IMO.

reply to Snakeoil
Isn't that basically the same thing?

reply to Octavean
That makes sense, but have you ever seen a zombie in a zombie movie get tired and sit down to rest?

I'd actually like to see that some time, it would probably be hilarious

No but in the Walking Dead TV series they talked about the walkers being effected by cold, fresh walkers moving a bit faster, older walkers moving a bit slower or becoming lurkers rather then walkers, the lack of eating effectively starving them,.......and so on,......

For the infected it makes sense more so then the dead,....that energy expenditure should have an effect,...

Someone on drugs for example my have greatly improved performance but then they crash,.....

similarly, in 28 days later the zombies run out of gas after a while.

edit: i think

To be perfectly honest, I can't remember how 28 Days Later ended.

reply to Octavean
I figured that by the time Lori gave birth in The Walking Dead, a majority of the walkers should have burned themselves out.
