Zombie Test

In sign that zombie movies are quite possibly the most popular movie genre ever created, some wise guy in America has decided to create a zombie test to test just how well people would survive in an actual zombie apocalypse.

Sounds like a good idea, full of fun and exciting times for the contestants, right?

Sure it's fun. It'll be a real laugh for everyone, until the first brain hungry zombie appears and attacks the first victim. Then maybe the whole zombie course thing might not be so much fun for the contestants.

You see, despite my best efforts, I haven't been able to determine if the zombies in this obstacle course are real or not. By the way organisers were talking about the zombies, I'm inclined to think that they are in fact real bona fide zombies.

I really can't see anything fun or exciting (well, ok, I'll give them excitement. Even if it is the wrong kind of excitement) about running for my life from a horde of ravenous brain eating zombies. Especially if I had been under the impression that the zombies weren't real right up until the first killing.

Really can't see the fun times there.

I mean, if was guaranteed that the zombies weren't real, then it would be a huge amount of fun to run around the obstacle course playing Zombie Apocalypse. But only if the zombies are paid actors with make up on.

But what's even more worrying than this (yes, there's actually something more worrying than people willingly signing themselves up to be chased by zombies [truth inadvertising]) is that if the zombies are in fact the real thing, then that means that parts of America (at the very least) have hordes of zombies running around, attacking people for their brains.

Why hasn't this been covered by the media? This has "headline news!" written all over it.
