How did they ... have a baby???


Can he (the zombie leader) even get an erection?

I mean all their organs are dead and non-functioning ... so the erection is not even the most important part in that ... process ...

And the baby is now ... still undead? Or dead undead? Or alive undead? Was he supposed to grow up and go to zombie school??? HOW???

To be fair, we don't actually know if Zeus was completely undead. He was a laboratory experiment. Was his...uhh... milk hose still functioning or not? No idea.

The real issue is how did an undead stripper get pregnant when her ovaries are no longer producing eggs?

reply

She had some undead eggs left.

That brings rise to another question:
With undead eggs, does it mean the organism is growing or undying?

reply

Ovaries don't produce eggs ... only release them ...
But probably wouldn't release eggs either, never heard of zombies menstruating ...

This movie is ridiculous on so many levels, but this is Not one of them.

"I mean all their organs are dead and non-functioning"

Clearly, this is not the case. Otherwise they couldn't walk/see/hear/smell/eat etc. . .

Just sayin'.

Well, that's a problem with all the zombies since the inception of the genre.

Their organs ARE dead and nonfunctioning, otherwise they will not decay and they will heal their wounds.
Plus: we are shown (in several zombie movies) decayed corpses moving. Or limbs moving around following the prey. Which obviously is not possible,

But we kinda got accustomed with those so our brain just ignores them. They've become "acceptable".

The only way a zombie would be possible is if the infection takes over a live body and dies once that body dies.

Almost.

There are two types of zombie movies: those that try to explain them, and those that don't.
MUCH easier to write for the second case. Because as soon as you try to explain them, you run into ridiculous logic/consistency problems.

The ONLY ones that succeed are, interestingly, the ones that Don't try to tie it to some sort of "infection." There aren't many, but the tagline "hell is full and now they walk the earth" is the least troublesome "explanation." It's supernatural, Not science-based. Boom, done.

Given that, it's kind of puzzling why there aren't more of Those types of zombie flicks.

Ehhh. Actually, no it's not. Sigh.

I just assumed she was pregnant when bitten and the Alpha decided to fill the role of zombie step dad.

reply

So alpha zombie Zeus is actually.... a cuck?!

reply

when a woman zombie and a man zombie really love one other........😂😂😂

This is a dumb answer and means nothing:

If we look at Cummings as the basis for alphas, then this could the illogical answer.

Cummings was bit while alive and then he turned. Unlike the shamblers who died first and became zombies, Alphas may not be fully dead (even though they can be decapitated and still think ugh).

If they are partially alive, the reproductive organs may work on some. Specifically the queen which is why Zeus is so emotional about her while he treats the others like cannon fodder.

This is a stupid explanation, but I assume that was their thinking.

reply

You assume they were thinking :D
