Too many of them, not enough ammo!

How about a women's prison?

How about a women's prison? haha that's what Oxford would be if we took it over during a zombie outbreak. A womans prison. While we are stuck on Oxford why not shoot a zombie movie there?

college students wouldnt know what was going on and then they might wet them selves at the sight of our zombies in make up. i usually act out my stories to get a feel for my characters emotions. obviously none of them are finished.

How about a women's prison? Might be risky to try and get laid once your woman's prison is secured from the dead. Some of those chicks might be attractive, but they're just as dangerous (if not more dangerous) than the creatures banging on the doors to get in and eat you!

While we are stuck on Oxford why not shoot a zombie movie there? better to be stuck on oxford than stuck in oxford like yours truely. though shooting a zombie film here is a pretty cool idea.

better to be stuck on oxford than stuck in oxford like yours truely. though shooting a zombie film here is a pretty cool idea. hahaha you poor thing. Oxford does serve up a nice back drop for a movie though. I'd use it there are a lot of interesting buildings and it has that small middle America feel to it. Why not?

Does your version of Oxford have an Inspector Morse?

[Redman6565]

Does your version of Oxford have an Inspector Morse? Who? You lost me. I think it would be great to shoot a movie there and make it a non-zombie movie. I'd go with a horror movie just not a zombie one. To much zombie stuff floating around right now.

hahaha No wrong Oxford. I would have a detective though. If I had the cash to shoot my idea there would be one.

Does your version of Oxford have an Inspector Morse? no more like the keystone cops.

[Redman6565]

no more like the keystone cops. Not to mention a pathetic judge as well.

I have a question. I figured that this topic is the best place for it given the topic name. We've been told by countless zombie movies that there are more zombies than bullets. That is, you could never hope to destroy all the zombies with guns because you'd run out of bullets. I want to know whether that's true. The population of the US is roughly 300 Million. I don't know how many bullets your average gunshop has, nor do I know how many gunshops there are spread around a typical city. I also don't know how much ammo the local police, national guard, and/or military keeps on hand. Maybe some of you gun enthusiasts could shed some light on this aspect. Then you look at the movies and they don't seem to uphold the argument. Land, in particular, is the one that seems to laugh in the face of this argument. They were far into the outbreak, had achieved an equilibrium where they seemed capable of long-term survival, they'd somehow cleared the areas around the city, and yet ammo seemed to be in strong supply. They shot full auto at everything under the sun, even the zombie on the electric fence that wasn't a threat. Dead Reckoning was the ultimate waste of ammo, literally cutting zombies in half rather than placing headshots. The scavenging run talked about getting food, water, medicine, and even liquor - but not ammo. By that point in the outbreak shouldn't they have run out? I mean, if everything we've been led to believe is true about zombie numbers vs. bullet numbers.

I really do believe that there are more shells in the world than there are people. But, I also believe that there would probably go 10 shells per zombie, on average, during an outbreak. In the initial panic, perhaps even as high as 30 shells per zombie.
