Although I disliked this movie, I have to point this out:

The men in the suits wanted the girls because they probably wanted to re-populate the earth. They asked them to get nude so they could check their bodies for signs of the virus (and to be pervs, I'm sure). When they saw Bobbi was infected, they freaked out and sent them all packing.

[–] bite_me_loser_86 13 years ago

Get real. They wanted the girls because they had probably not seen any women around for a long time and knew it might be ages until they would run into a female again, thus they wanted to ensure that they would have some sex slaves to satisfy their needs with. You're awfully naive if you think their concern was to re-populate the Earth. Do you honestly think 2 guys and 2 girls alone could re-populate the Earth?

The only reason they asked them to strip was to check and see if they were infected, because for obvious reasons they didn't want to have sex with infected women.

#78. Dog blood is not contagious during a viral outbreak. Even the ones that eat dead, infected flesh.

#79. All bodily functions cease to exist during a pandemic...that is, except for those involved solely with sex and drinking warm beer. Even though there is a case of water with you, you will never have to drink it. Of course, you will need a warm beer eventually.

#85. In a world where you need guns to protect yourself, don't pick up any weapons that you happen to come across because surely one with unlimited ammo is enough.

#86. You can pour straight bleach all over the inside of a car and it won't bother you or the material one bit.

#87. While you can put on your mask, in order to keep the story going just hold it to your face instead.

#88. A plain old paper face mask used constantly over and over and fitting loosely over your face will keep you safe from an airborne virus. In fact you can be within inches of infected people the outside of the mask somehow repels the virus so it's in pristine and disinfected condition.

#89. Viruses that make human bodies disappear are nice.

#90. Surgical gloves can protect you so well that after you touch infected people and then touch your head with it you're still safe.

#91. A completely sterile room can be had even with thin single pane windows facing the outside. Surely all windows are air tight.

#92. Carriers? I guess it means people who are trying not to get infected. Thanks, Hollywood!

#93. You can't find gasoline anywhere but you always have plenty of bleach.

Someone mentioned it already but if you're driving and being pursued by rednecks why the hell would you stop your car and then run? Dumbass deserved to die.

#78 is actually entirely accurate - there are very few viruses that can jump the species barrier. Which makes sense - if your whole reason for (quasi-)living is to re-write a very specific set of DNA to make more copies of yourself, being able to do it to an entirely different set of DNA is not really a top-priority survival skill. Just like a car mechanic is unlikely to be able to fix a Lear jet without some additional training.

111: After stating that the blood you're covered in is not contagiuous, rub your safety mask in it to prove your point.

112: After touching an infected body, don't take your gloves off before taking care your brother's wounds.
