If it had no legs, how did it shamble towards people? Or did the legs get up and walk on their own?
Someday, when we look back on this, we'll both laugh nervously and change the subject. More is good. All is better.

Generaly Legless zombies are crawlers.   pulling themselves forward with there hands,  there have been cases of zombie heads laying in wait in grassed area's biting down on a leg that happens to come to close.  An undead land mine

The name of the movie eludes me, but there was one scene where a zombie was cut in two at the waist. The torso sat upright reaching out for the lower half that somehow also remained upright and running around aimlessly bouncing off of objects. The torso finally caught it's lower half as it ran by and somehow reattached itself... backwards, if I remember correctly. In another scene a decapitated body ran after it's head doing the slapstick antic of kicking its head out of reach just as it got within range. The human survivors won the day by luring the zombies onto a bridge covered in a water puddle and throwing high voltage cables into the water.

Needless to say, the movie was kind of a spoof on the "Dawn of the Dead" franchises.
Heroic adventuring at the speed of slow.
Never mistake kindness as a sign of weakness.
Not a complete idiot, parts missing.

Dropping Proeliator from the name was way overdue.

That's it. Time to start erecting the great wall of Australia's Coast and retreating to the secret base in the central desert.

Great.  Australia is going to be the next Madagascar.

The movie I was trying to remember is Return of the Living Dead II.

It appears the 1985 horror/comedy The Return of the Living Dead had a nice life, spawning four sequels, ending with (so far) 2005's Return of the Living Dead: Rave from the Grave.

So bad they're good?


Edit: I just ran across this article form 1 October 2009; It seems the University of Florida has a Disaster Recovery Plan in case of zombies. Article link

2005's Return of the Living Dead: Rave from the Grave.

I remember Rave to the Grave.  It wasn't to bad,  It was weird.. I mean liek how they went from finding strange chemical drums in a room to selling them as a street drug but it's also an interesting concept a zombifying street drug.  granted they tried to explained it with the stoner guy tasting some of the goo that dripped on his finger but damn it how stupid would you have to be to taste a weird chemical that leaked out of a hazardus materials drum.

Return of the living dead 3 was okay, but the weaponised zombies were pretty freaking cool I think

Especially when the one girl went sharp and pointy. And I meant to reply to Ilearch's comment on the first page.
