Has there ever been a Zombie film that has had
a solution?

Like when we go into a Romero flick or even a newer one
we kinda know that the Zombies are never gonna 'die' in the
end.

So I ask has there ever been a film in which theres a solution
to the Zombie breakout?

Like mentioned: Undead and Return of the Living Dead. Evil Dead ain't zombies so it doesn't count.
I would count Braindead though, but the baby still lived so I dunno, guess that little prick could infest the rest of the world.

I've noticed the typical zombie ending a lot. Its very cliche. The end of the world scenario. "we're all screwed" kinda thing. Nobody ever does a movie about the end of the zombie plague. I think that would be interesting, and a little different. Its one of the main reasons I like the book World War Z so much. It talks about the end of the plague.

No solutions in a Romero zombie film just a way to help stay alive:

Kill the brain and you kill the ghoul.

I'm not gonna start a huge off topic debate by mentioning a certain Danny Boyle movie...so I wont...

but there are a few that have settled it:
RotLD as mentioned before
Deap Pit
Hard Rock Zombies
Plague of the Zombies
Pet Sematary 1 and 2
Undead
Dead Heat
The Video Dead
Dead and Breakfast
Neon Maniacs


more I'm sure...

the Zombie Movies Solution?

find the cause of the disease that creates the dead coming to life and you find your solution but the reason why its never been found is because the harsh reality is, it happand so fast there was no time to do anything but run survive.

obviously there was talk of trying to figure out away to deal with it in day of the dead with the scientist but he turned out to be a quak who wasn't looking for a cure but just away to control them get them too stop trying to eat them wich only seemd to work with the notorius bob.

the only movie that comes close too a solution isnt actualy a zombie movie in my eyes but people say it is, 28 days later. they were infected with rage not actualy a zombie but it was treated like a zombie movie wich i dont know why but there solution was to let them die off from starvation wich failed so we back to square one. i say just get a bunch of guns and start blasting the hell out of them all, problem solved.

I don't think most do and I don't think a solution to the zombie problem is warrented in most movies because the stories aren't really about the zombies, its about the people involved in those situations and the zombies are merely story points.

Zombie movies generally happen in the form of an apocolypse. I don't think there should be a solution after it has already happen.

Yup... The worlds over. Well it's looks like we're right fucked.... Who wants pancakes?

explain how its not a disease/virus then that makes the dead come back to life.
if you say theres no room in hell then your just not giving an answer but moving away from the question.

zombies of late go on the notion that what ever is the cause of them is in there blood and saliva and when they bite you they pass it on and when you die you rise up to be a zombie so thats a sign of a disease infection. zombies of the past never went with any info becase it was more scary not knowing what the cause of this or how its happaning but the times have changed and its just plain stupid to think anyone would not know what the hell is going on when they see people geting bit only to die and come back to life, they simpley say.. its the bite you get bitten you become one of them, the science behind is simple, its the blood and saliva thats causeing it but with no one too do the work and find away to cure it (not includeing resident evil) then the only option you have is to get out your gun and blow his/her head off.

They never said it was a virus in the Romero Dead films, it was a gas in ROTLD, same thing in Hell of the Living Dead, and it was Voodo in Zombie.

So STFU n00b.

well according to the zombie survival guide it is a disease...so leave the noob alone

and who said we were talking about romero flicks?

I thought the topic in question were what zombie movies provide a solution or ending to a zombie outbreak.

F the Zombie Survival Guide and F you too :smokin2:
Romero's flix are the best of the genre and if you don't agree with that seek help. If you wanna go with the shitty RE, or the non zombie 28days be my guest. If you wanna base films of an unreleated independant work of fiction then have at it you filthy n00b.

I mean who would think of Romero when there is a thread about Zombie movies?! Lets just forget the fact the thread creator dropped his name in the first post :sure:

We are not talking about zombie movies you discussion noob...the topic is zombie movies WITH A SOLUTION, go ahead read the title.

Now, do Romero's zombie movies have a solution? Do Fulci's zombie movies have a solution? No, so try adding something pertinent to the discussion. Romero isn't the only guy that makes zombie movies, infact there are hundreds maybe thousands that aren't made by him. Some of these do provide a solution, some of them do come from a disease, some of them don't even involve the living dead but are still zombie movies.

No one questioned Romero's awesomeness; no one said RE was great (though it is certainly not shitty). I don't understand what you were trying to say about the Survival Guide. Try reading the OP's post before telling me it's about Romero movies, here I'll copy it for you and save you the time:

He says that he knows there will be no solution in a Romero flick and asks if there was a flick that had a solution.

So either contribute something useful or STFU and stop bashing people.

I guess Shaun of the dead had a halfway soloution but I never thought of evil dead as a zombie film I thought they were humans possessed by demons I almost forgot Dead Alive.

If the movies were meant to show the positive sides of human nature, there would be a solution. They aren't, so you're probably going to get something like Fido/Shaun of the Dead or Land of the Dead where we just let them live and try to coexist until one has completely died off (probably us barring some very large concrete walls being erected).

I always thought zombie movies never have an outright solution on the outbreak, but a solution on how the characters can survive in such heated conditions. I don't know, I always like the end of the world scenario because I like my characters feel helpless on something they can't cure, just carry out their days fighting the infection until it hopefully dies down.

But I like any kind of zombie solutions, whether it be the aftermath (WWZ) or search for a new way to survive in a world that is still alive, but humanity is dead (The Walking Dead comic).

It's funny a zombie christmas flick was menttioned. There was a comic book called last possibly final christmas/holiday
I don't quite remember the name but it was about Santa fighting zombies in a post apocalyptic world it was written by Brian Poeshen (I think thats how his name is spelt) I heard he was intrested in turnng it into a film when he was on Conan O Brian but I don't know when or if it'll ever happen.
