Zombie = S, Everything else = F.
When the characters seemingly have no idea of the concept of zombies, it means the world is a fictional world, it's no longer a story about a zombie apocalypse in our world and the characters that survive and die during this apocalypse, it becomes a story about a zombie apocalypse in a fantasy world, a world very similar to ours but none the less a fantasy world.
..and in most cases it's entirely pointless to make the story take place in an alternate reality - other than a novel reaction from the characters to the zombies.
It is just a trope now in zombie movies that people dont know what zombies are.
Gotta keep the suspension of belief or the initial gear will not be able to be put across to the viewer.
When they do recognise zombies, its normally out of comedic recognition.
Thats moronic. Disbelief in the impossible horrors the characters are seeing is one thing. But completely erasing the concept of zombies from the world makes no fricking sense.
>makes no fricking sense.
It does. Just as I explained
If the character is "huh what is that" then scared, learning how to deal with the threat as he progresses, this gets put across to the viewer and what makes a movie.
if the character is on the other hand "ohh shit its zombies" and just gets toold up and faces it like he has seen in movies or played vidya, there is no fear to be put across to the viewer.
You the suspension of disbelief to get the point across.
Its the same reason "cell towers" or batteries on phones no longer work in horror movies, because just ringing the police and getting armed police to deal with the situation ruins the entire movie.
Shit as it is, it just is what it is. There is probably no better way to do it.
Again any time they do mention zombies its normally in comedic movies for comedic effects like shaun of the dead or wienerneys vs zombies.
Its the same shit with vampires, ghosts, ayys or whatever, they just all pretend its the first time they have ever heard of the concept for suspension of disbelief.
Infected is my favorite. I think zombie fiction works a lot better when its the actual disease thats the threat, not getting actually pulled apart and eaten. I mean if it's transmitted through fluids then everyone who touches one get get infected.
Its so fricking stupid watching the walking dead and people are beating zombies to death, getting splashed with blood and no one gets the disease transmitted.
I thought it was something to do with being exposed to the bodily fluids (ie. saliva) via bite that did the damage, not actually their blood itself. Which is why you can beat their brains in and be covered in blood yet be alright.
Best name I have for them is boring.
Zombie stories require too many suspensions of disbelief.
I mean, it's pretty obvious humanity would always win in reality, but they make humans about as smart as the zombies to make tension in the plot. So few of them even own guns - they are actually moronic.
Wish they'd stop making these shit movies.
>entire world grinds to a halt and gets permafricked by a virus that is a nothingburger cold to most of the population >no bro zombies are just too much disbelief, humans would definitely win we're too smart for that
"Walkers" was dominant in The Walking Dead but I liked how when isolated groups were met, they usually had a different dialect for them. Rick learned walkers from Morgan. The quarry camp called them geeks until Rick showed up. Woodbury called them biters. I think Andrea alternatively called them walkers or biters depending on what group she was talking to. Atlanta police called them rotters. Randall's group called them lame brains. Whisperers called them guardians. People who didn't know that everyone who dies comes back inaccurately called them infected until they found out; this was done purposefully by Dr. Jenner before the blood tests confirmed what he already suspected.
Whiskey delta and Walkers are beyond lame, deserve to be in a sub-F tier
(I guess Whiskey Delta works in L4D but anywhere else it would suck)
Also where is Geek i think it's a solid B or C
In California we just call them homeless.
no, people in SF at least call them zombies. because the ones there stand up, though degrees of shrugged over, stock still on the footpaths
"the damned" should be A, possibly S
i can't say that word outside of /b/
Ziggers
>no living dead
Shit list, get FWAUKED idiot
Fond of ghouls.
thats what i was thinking, why isnt ghouls on there
Zombies, ghouls, deadites, all kino.

i like zeds. its catchy
I like the Joel Haver video on this
>Kill as many of those damn joggers as you can
What did he mean by this?
i call them sneakerheads. or rap fans.

>one gets the disease transmitted.
They are all infected in tWD.
Its only after death does the body reanimate.
Some people call them demons. Me? I call them b***hes.
>Walkers [some made up shit]
wtf the rest are real?
Infected is too overused and frankly kinda gay. It deserves at most a C but its probably more reasonable in a D next to Walkers.
What about Ghouls ?
Ghouls eat the dead. Vampires would be more accurate than ghouls.

Infected is A or S tier. It's hard to keep a straight face while saying the word "zombies".
Whiskey delta and Walkers are beyond lame, deserve to be in a sub-F tier

Scourge S tier
