Vampires vs Zombies

Post by rANDOM_cAT »

Alright, now most people are going to see the title of this post, and say "WTF, he's on crack" and the truth is, yeah, probably.

We've got a great script, solid actors, and we're working on purchasing weaponry, 3d software, and props. i just wanna know if anyone is interested.

Not really.


It's one thing saying your gonna make a film & another thing making it.

I could say i'm going to make a Godzilla Vs The Hulk film & i could, but it'd be the biggest pile of cr** 3D graphics you've ever seen.

I'll be more interested when you've learnt your 3D software & have cut a trailer for us to watch. :)

glad someone replied. i know theres a huge difference between doing and talking, and we'll see how it turns out, wont we?

as for the 3d, im not using a lot of it, at all. we've got combustion3 for some disintegration/fire effects, otherwise im gonna stay away from it.

any suggestions would be nice. we'll see how it goes.

thanks

who knows, wouldn't the zombies, bad blood make them worthless to a vampire. And are these Nosvertu Anne rice style of vampires, or Blade Underworld style of Vampires?

I thikn vampires are cooler than zombies. They are fast - not slow (as the general stereotypes of the undead go), some can fly, Dracula was the first vampire to turn into a bat, aside from the obvious weakness that they have (ie flame, sunlight, garlic, silver or holy items and wooden stakes into hearts) thay are basically immortal and live for thousans of years. They can carry massive swords and wear capes and be really cool. Oh yeah and that whole ddrinkng blood thing.

Zombies are slow, at can take a f*ck load of hits from a shottie! Usually walk around in hoards, making much harder to kill them. They also eat your face.

I forget what i was getting at, so look amazed as though i raised a very valid point.:o

Oh yes I see....

I would say that a vampire is much harder to kill then a vamp as you have to catch them napping, a zombie, just requires a head shot.

I like writing scripts...

I/E. VAMPIRE CASTLE THRONE ROOM / Village - NIGHT
We see Vladamir Trokevski, the morose Romanian vampire lord. He is looking especially morose this evening as his cronies still haven't returned with a satisfying young virgin from the village below. Maybe he should stop requesting virgin blood every night since the village only has a population of around 60 and most of them are old and childless now. But then he would not be THE LORD of the vamps then! Perish the thought. He will dine on vigin's blood tonight!

Suddenly, we hear a sound. He looks up, expecting to see a busty young virgin in the grasp of his compatriots. Instead, there is a throng of zombies moving towards him!
VLAD
Damn those villagers and their meddling witch!
He pulls out his rapier and prepares to make mincemeat of the zombies. He jumps into the crowd and slices and dices the closest zombies to ribbons rather stylishly. Like most morose vampires, he looks rakishly handsome (though pale) while doing it. He looks like that Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean only he's not a pirate. He's a vampire. So he's really, really cool. The zombies just look all rotted and stuff. Some of them are his previous victims, so there's lots of naked hotties that he killed instead of turning because we can't afford the costuming for a lot of whiny vampire hotties in tight latex outfits running around.

No matter how fast he slices and dices, the zombies just keep coming! He realizes his mistake of jumping into the thrall too late. Zombies pull him to pieces, chomping on his dead flesh and then crushing his bones under their wandering feet.

The camera rises above the carnage as the zombies wander senselessly around the throne room looking for something else to kill and eat. It flies out the window and down to the village where the vampires he turned have turned to dust with their master's demise. The village cheers and the virgin is saved!

Then the zombies come bustling out of the castle and turn on the villagers and witch that summoned them from the grave, creating more zombies. The virgin looks up at the camera, he jaw now gone.

VIRGIN
(with great difficulty since her jaw is gone)
Zombies rule the day!

She starts attempting to gnaw off one of her arms at the elbow.

ooooo
cool.

oh yeah one more thing, vamps are super human strength. And do zombies have a nasty habit of getting up even after being shot? I saw some zombie movie and a pair of legs were still wandering around with the spine sicking up out of them it was cool. I saw another movie where there was a troso crawling aswell that was cool too :) undead are cool.
Crossbow with wooden with silver tip laced with garlic arrow on fire would screw a vampire over.... hahahaa lol

killing

Post by Siratramus »

I know all the different was to kill mythological (presumably) creatures, but in my opion, if the brain recepticle is not attached to the rest of the moving parts, I fail to see how they can function.

the reason they are dead is because their body can no longer function properly, there for they are dead!

the reason these dead, unfunctional bodys come back to life is from magic. the magic effects every cell of the body and brings it back to life to function at a team(a body) again.

so the reason the dead body is 'alive' again, is because the magic tells the cells what to do, how to work together, so they can work again!

well yer!
