I want to shamelessly steal...

...your ideas!

What would you like to see in a zombie movie? What annoys you with current movies, or what do you dig?
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAPETIME!

Do you want to do what annoys us or are you wanting to avoid doing wht annoys us?

Well, the idea was to use the good ideas and avoid what\'s cliché and annoying. ;)

Cool.  SOmetimes people want to make movies that are purely cliche and annoying.

What if you had a zombie with multiple personalities?  

Oh, and the personalities change every time someone hits the zombie.  Eventually the victims figure it out and whack the zombie until it gets to the nice personality..  Perhaps a computer repairman. Than they have them install more ram...

That idea may need a little tweaking.

OK, out of the box here.  

What if the zombie in one of his rampages attacks the cameraman shooting the scene?

Sometimes you want the hero or SHE-ro(Hero\'s cousin) to die and have one of the secondary characters live. The secondary characters are usually a lot more likeable.

[EDIT] I talked about an extremely crappy zombie movie in my journal. As long as your movie is nothing like that then you are on the right track.

Yeah, that\'s not bad either. Or, you could just have the zombies win... hehe, that\'d make for a dark ending!

I agree about the main character dying..  That is always my biggest complaint.

You always know a scene is going to play out alright because the main character is in it and you know he\'s going to live.

Sure, have him make it quite far, but then axe him and transfer the main character duties to someone you\'d least expect.

In regards to the camera guy getting axed you could bring the audience into it by making it almost feel like it is no longer a movie.  It\'s a real thing happening.  Almost like the character in the movie gets posessed and really thinks he\'s a zombie and starts pummeling the camera guy....  Blah blah blah.. Shit you want me to shoot it for you too? ;)

To piggy back off that idea. What if all of the scenes were from the perspective of the main characters? Kind of like the Blair Witch Project minus the suck.

Also make one of the zombies a dead ninja. On a scale of 1-10 on the greatest monster charts that would be a 45.

:laughing: @ dead ninja

Zombies are usually not very flexible, so how would a zombie ninja use his powers? :D

You know if Denmark needs sperm like the Aussies do, maybe I can get a free trip to Denmark?
