Zombie females.

Postby whateverdude » Tue Aug 04, 2009 11:30 am

Does anyone else notice in all the zombie movies a majority of the walking dead are guys? It's like the sausagefest of the undead or something. What happens to all the women, save for the few that happen to have a more prominent starring role. Then she's usually a hot zombie, not so rotted out body with conveniently torn clothing.

because boys are the main audience? It's a movie, dude. They do what sells.

:lol:

Also, I think that midgetyaz is right, but you might also figure that women get devoured more often, where men escape with fatal wounds, and turn?

Also also, you could probably argue that a 6'3", 250 pound zombie male is scarier than a 5'2" 140 pound female?

Also also also, more guys apparently respond to casting calls for zombie movies? More guys = more male zombies?

I always thought it was that most zombies can't walk well in high heel shoes,
so more of the male zombies end up on the streets.

Obviously, you've never enraged a female of small stature...

spacecase0: That's also a possibility.

whisk.e.rebellion: I only wish that were true. :lol: A small female zombie is less scary, because she only wants to devour your flesh, not your soul.

Not zombies exactly but did you see Silent Hill, the scene in the hospital with the faceless nurses was awesome. Scary yet strangely still sexy. You'd think the directors would learn sex sells, so why not sexy zombies?

I think it has to do with people being more disturbed by seeing dead/hurt women than men. I mean if you watch a lot of movies, even when a chick does get killed or injured, it is rarely in the face, and the excpetions to that are small 'artistic' wounds in general. It just seems to me that the movie going populace is much more comfortable with the idea of dead males than females. The onlymovies thatbuck that trend are the ones going for that reaction. IMO
These are my preps. There are many like them, but these are mine. I must prep for real possibilities. I must think clearer than the Zeds who may try to kill me. I must be prepared to help myself so I might be prepared to help those in need. I will. We are the saviors of my life. So be it, until disaster has past and there is no enemy, but sloth!

Or how about a child zombie. That little girl in the '04 Dawn of The Dead was creepy on a level that no other zombie has yet to achieve. Definately an "oh shit" moment after she drew her lips back (what was left of them) and hissed, just before she charged.

There are less women zombies because they are much less likely to go outside to see what all that moaning is all about. " honey, go out there and find out what all that moaning is "

I'm going with the lack of females that show up for casting call, look at the percentage difference we have on ZS between the boys and girls.

And maybe it has something to do with the male zeds being "scarier" but I'm with Molon, that kid freaked the shit out of me. Though the fat lady was pretty funny.

Apparently zombies don't care about equal opportunity or equal rights.

Yup, hookers IIRC, though I'm sure there has been plenty of nekkid zombies on both sides of the gender fence in the history of zed movies.
