Do you have anything around to defend yourself with?

This is probably due to my overactive imagination and the fact that I was a big Resident Evil nut before RE4 came out, but I've often wondered what I would do in a zombie attack.

I don't really have much that I can use as far as melee options go, and I definitely don't have any firearms. I'd probably have to end up chucking my old Xbox and hoping that it would do some damage :p. I've got a hunting knife, but that's a liiiiiiiiiittle too short to do much... Guess I could always see if I could buy some time and unscrew the metal rod from my standing lamp. Bone-crackin'/bludgeoning goodness :9

If something were to happen in this scenerio I have three weapons. I have a baseball bat under my bed, pocket knife on my nightstand, and a loaded airsoft gun in my nightstand's drawer . As much as I dont think anything would happen, I am completely prepared.

Well, I have a big metal pole. But if that doesn't work, I can always resort to the chainsaw just outside the room inside the cupboard (lol!).

Well, I don't have any officially-recognised weapons in my room. I suppose my best bet would be to grab the stool in the far corner of the room and try and knock the zombie's head off... then again, my room's small enough that he'd probably reach me before I could reach the stool.

If I had a few minutes to prepare, my parents have a few old walking sticks under their bed for this exact purpose.

My room is small too.

I would grab one of my PS2 controllers and sling it at the zombie trying to avoid hitting the walls or ceiling.

I'd take the nearest heavy object, then whack it over the head with it. Then while it's in pain, I shove a paper weight of some sort down it's throat. Then I lock it out of my room and let it suffocate. Let's hope zombies don't know how to preform the heimlich on themselves.

Yeah my room sounds a lot like GQ, I'd probably just have to die since me rooms so small. I guess I could flip my bed over it and jump out the window or something.

Lmao. You'd so die. Unless the zombie trying to get into our rooms doesn't follow the normal zombie "rules", I think you should learn them. You can't suffocate a zombie :| it doesn't breathe. As it's already dead, you also can't hope it's in pain from being whacked over the head. However, whacking it over the head might kill it if you did it hard enough so you can hope that that's your best bet.

As for myself...one zombie would not be hard to kill. Supposedly they're very slow, so even with a small room you might be O.K. if a 'weapon' was near at hand. I have two rooms as I took my sister's when she moved out years ago but I spend most of my time in the bigger one and half the time in there, the door's locked. I don't think time would be a problem for me.
Considering that it's fairly easy to kill a zombie - just damage its brain/severe its head - you could even kill one with a pencil, so long as you stabbed the pencil through its head hard enough. I'd have a lot of things that I could kill it with. I could pick up my chair and slam it against its head but I'm afraid I might be too weak for that, however, I'd probably have a lot of adrenaline at the time so I might be able to muster it.
Otherwise, I'd get my sharper scissors and jab those through the f***ers forehead.
According to most films, etc, the only other way to get rid of zombies is to burn them. I wouldn't have the time or resources for this though and I also wouldn't want to set my room on fire. So I wouldn't be doing that, lol.

Imagine a blind zombie? They'd struggle a bit.

Yeah...one zombie I think I'd be fine with. However, if zombies actually came then I don't think we'd survive.
I love zombie films and they don't scare me but the thought of zombies really coming is the one thing in films that I'm scared of thinking about actually existing.

Erm, two problems.
Zombies don't feel pain.
How are you suposed to sufficate something that's already dead?
Well, I guess you could jump out the window.

I'd take a heavy object and try to knock it's head off.
If that doesn't work, I'll try to break it's teeth so it can't bite me.
If that fails, I'd jump out the window :o

There's a whip sitting immediately above my door. While not particularly effective against a zombie, it could at least buy me time to grab something a bit more effective. There's a pair of boomsticks downstairs, but that's a hassle and a mess. There's a few trophies and medals above the door; not all that strong, but rather heavy and blunt. Same goes for all the books on the shelf; pointy. :)

All I need is my sneakers!!! Damn skippy, I jump out the window and run like hell!!! Well, it depends, are they the resident evil types, or the 28 days types? I would probably fight the 28 days type, but run from the RE type. If I had to fight, my options are:

Coffee table
Chair
Fender Stratocaster (OH YEAH!!!!)
Various pencils/pens
Various pocket knives
Bed
Dresser

If I can make it out of my door:

Pool Sticks
Chain Saw
PLENTY of firearms (my unc collects - i would have a Bushmaster, two teck-nines, two shotguns, a PLETHORA of pistols, and a few other rifles that i don't know the name of)

Hey! What about resident evil 4 zombies? They flinch from pain sometimes... And you can snap their necks, so they can't "breathe". However it depends on the type of zombie. In my case, I'd suspect it'd have the same physical and mental properties of a bloodthirsty mental defficient.

Well, I guess I could always just lure it over to my window and close it on it. Doesn't sound too hard, right? Okay, I don't know... Maybe knock my dresser over on it. That's about the most dangerous weapon in my room.

I would just open the blinds. Simple. Or grab my crowbar.

Easiest ways to get rid of a zombie:

5. Fire

4. Decapitation

3. Impalement

2. Sunlight

1. Chuck Norris

I enjoy using Method #1

RE4 doesn't have zombies. Those people are simply humans infected with the Las Plagas and have now become controlled by them through the Plagas' manipulation of the host's nervous system via access to the spinal cord. The other monstrosities are pretty much the same thing but have gone under mutations and have been subjects of genetic manipulation. Now, back on topic:

There are many things that I have in my room that could serve as weapons, such as very large books, CDs which I can throw very well, pencils, my Gamecube, PS2, Xbox, the controllers and games to said consoles, my TV, the two guitars in my room, a few metal rulers, cacti, clocks, and my trombone and its case could be used as weapons in case of such an attack.

I don't have a room. I sleep in a ball on the floor. But if I did have a room I would keep a baseball bat and a cleaver under my bed.

Methods 2 and 3 are for vampires. Not zombies.

Lol this reminds me of the movie i just saw (I Am Legend).

Hypothetically, if a zombie came into my room, i would take out the souvenir dagger i got in Turkey that's under my pillow–the sides are dull but the point is VERY sharp–and stab him to death. However, in reality, i would probably cower under the covers, waiting for him to kill me :P

Take the scythe in my room from Halloween and chop him to pieces. If needed, also use my old Yu-Gi-OH (lol) Duel Disk and a clock, or go to my brother's room, get out the box knife, and stab him to death.

I would grab my wooden sword and my broken X-box. I would be the zombie down then drop the X-box on its back. I would then grab my huge RC truck and use it to run over the zombie's head. I have a bunk bed so i would use the ladder on it to beat him up. If he didn't die then I would scream and jump out my window :lol:

Haha! That'd be funny, getting a ladder and smashing its head in.
Lol at sun light and impalement 'n' I don't even know who Chuck Norris is, all I know is that there are too many Chuck Norris jokes.

In 28 Days/Weeks Later, they aren't zombies. They don't die and the already dead don't rise. They're just infected with rage and if the blood of the infected gets into the blood of someone else, they just become infected too; they don't die first. Also, after watching the second one, I'm pretty sure you can kill the things in 28 Days/Weeks Later by shooting them, etc, anywhere - not just their in heads.

CHJB - I don't know if you meant the game Resident Evil 4, (which I haven't played), but film-wise we're only up to the third one :P. Unless in America the 4th has already been released and if so I'll be jetting out there as soon as I can. I just need to rob a bank first; I'm a bit short on cash, lol.
The zombies go down when you snap their neck because it severes the spinal cord and so it has to be that this kills them, so to speak, because they wouldn't be able to do anything if their necks were broken. They'd just sort of be lay on the floor like :| :mad: . Lol.

? Once again, the game or the film???!

The last Resident Evil film to come out here, (a few months ago), was 'Resident Evil: Extinction'. I’m not crazy enough to not know that this is the third film - they’re my favourite movies. I think you’re talking about the game, (which, as I’ve already said, I don’t play). If not then please do make another thread for Resident Evil and tell me about the fourth film because, considering it hasn’t been long since the third came out over here, I’ll be waiting a while.

If someone had one of the heavier Harry Potter books on hand, those would surely be heavy enough to bash a zombie's brains in. I'm re-reading the 6th book and I keep it by my pillow so there's another 'weapon' for me.
