This was the question I and my friends were forced to ask ourselves late one night in a conference room at Gen Con 2009. Regardless, we stop and ask ourselves the same question: “How long would I last?” Maybe they are just dragged off screaming, merely for shock value. Maybe they do something heroic as their last act. Perhaps they are bit and must be put down before they turn. Invariably, there comes a point in every zombie horror narrative where the characters whom we all implicitly know will die have done so, and then the first character we actually identify with winds up dying. After all, the zombie is not an individual threat in the modern zombie horror but rather an extension of an unending horde of shambling death, spurred forward by a drive to kill. This is a question anyone who has ever watched a zombie horror film has asked themselves – usually after the first actually intelligent character gets killed by the zombie horde.
How long would you last in the zombie apocalypse?
