running zombies?

[Adrenochrome]

WRONG. Both his feet didn't leave the ground simultaneously so you are WRONG. Yes they do. The scene where he's chasing Barb in the car. They DO leave the ground. As he runs down the hill. Re-Watch. (BTW, I'm NEVER wrong.) For him to be able to run down the hill, his feet HAVE to leave the ground. Think.

Hills don't count so, s'cuse me, but... WRONG!

[Adrenochrome]

Hills don't count so, s'cuse me, but... WRONG! HOW do hills not count? Running is running not matter where it's done. LOL Sort your funking definitions out, mate!

[Griff]

Hills don't count because he was actually FALLING - one step at a time.

[Adrenochrome]

Hills don't count because he was actually FALLING - one step at a time. no. AND,....if you want to get technical.....running IS falling "one step at a time" Go play, kid.

[Griff]

To fall while running you have to at first leap. This is not necessary on a hill when all that is required to fall is for one to extend their foot out and shift their weight forward. Hills don't count, man, and you are wrong so go play yourself, with yourself, by yourself.

Running zombies still rule! Let's see you zombie fans fight off a horde of Running zombies versus lumbering/shuffling/shambling zombies. LOL.....don't get sassy with me kid.....Hinzman ran. Period. Yep he ran... Ran like the wind. Ya know the more I reflect I wonder if Tom Hanks when slightly jogging used Hinzmans zombie as a reference when he did Forrest gump.

I'm sorry Griff, but Bill Hinzman did run slightly you could almost say he was jogging. Now when you look at the movie I think that GAR was trying to impose that the longer the dead were mobile they would become more stiff. Bill Hinzman started out moving very well and then when it became dark he was more stiff.

[MinionZombie]

I'm a shambler zombie lover at heart (although it does get quite sticky!) ... anyway, indeed, I think we need a full on scale of motion for zombies from shambling up to ACTUAL running. "Rushed" makes sense, it's not exactly full pelt afterall is it?

[AcesandEights]

Hills don't count Okay. Well, how can one argue with that... The zombie in question was most certainly...spry for a Romero zombie, and he definitely moves pretty quickly. It does look, to me, that he is purposefully picking both feet up at the same time as he moves down the hill.

[MaximusIncredulous]

WRONG. Both his feet didn't leave the ground simultaneously so you are WRONG. Actually if both feet leave the ground simultaneously, isn't that flying or jumping at the very least?

[Griff]

Actually if both feet leave the ground simultaneously, isn't that flying or jumping at the very least? I always thought of it as a succession of small leaps on alternating legs... which is pretty similar, I guess. Dammit, you might be right. If both of Hinzman's feet leave the ground at the same time then according to this pedantic lot, there's sufficient evidence to suggest that he is actually flying. That's it. Romero's zombies have been known to FLY and Hinzman is the first ever FLYING ZOMBIE. Hopefully the producers of the DAY OF THE DEAD remake will see fit to have flying zombies in their film. Because, afterall, if you thought running zombies were scary, wait'll you see the flying ones! And if anyone has a problem with flying zombies, I'll simply bring their attention to Hinzman in NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD and that'll shut them up ...because George Romero not only used them, he created them! Flying zombies rule!

[AcesandEights]

Don't be so quick to proclaim it flight, Griff. By your logic, factoring in the hill, at best this zombie could have been gliding. Two different things entirely.
