The Zombie Apocalypse...will you survive?

A friend of mine has an unholy fascination with what he assures me is the inevitable zombie apocalypse. He has spent an inordinate amount of time recruiting his army, locating supplies and making plans for survival in the event that rotting brain suckers do invade.

His theory seems to be well supported, with Creators Doejo even publishing a Map of the Dead showing just where are the hotspots for the zombie invasion will be.

America is screwed. All 50 states. London is double screwed. Most of Europe will be wiped out.

And for Australians, the prognosis is mixed. Any of us living in a capital city seem to be doomed to recreate our very own Shawn of the Dead scenes. The outback and wilderness are considered 'safe zones'...although I'm not sure why? Perhaps zombies only thrive when close to a 7-11 hub? If they can't eat brains perhaps a lukewarm pie and a Big Gulp at 2am does the trick?

However the news isn't all bleak. Western Australia and the Northern Territory will be largely unaffected and apparently even zombies don't want to go to Tasmania. Huh.

Frazer Island is the pick apparently, just a hop, skip and a jump away.

Apparently Vladimir Putin recently confirmed that Russia has been testing mind-bending psychotronic guns that can turn people into zombies. Ironically, according to the Map of the Dead, zombies give Russia a wide berth, so I'm thinking that they're going to be the evil geniuses behind this apocalypse.

All I can tell you is when the zombies come, I'm heading for Alaska, with one of these on my back. An award-winning safe house in a backpack? Sold! As an aside, is it time to worry when they hold an international Zombie Safe House Competition? With the winner awarded a Golden Shovel?
