        Everyone has blood, the bigger issue is the vampires. Do you think big engine will be happy with wild sourced vampires or do you think they will start farm raising them? Because capitalism will require an infinite growth of vampires.

          Now imagine the fallout when something happens to the vampire power plant, or the vampire farms.

    This reminds me of the Superman comic where they tell him if he truly wants to help all of mankind and solve things like crime and war, he needs to provide almost limitless free energy to the planet. So they put him on a crank and make him generate energy. Mankind prospers until after a long long time Superman is all dried up and has nothing left to give. But before he’s empty he’s replaced by a new energy source and made obsolete.

      The fact that zombies seems to be able to walk indefinitly in most movies/series without consuming energy bothers me more than it should.

      Do they all evolve to photosynthesize!?

        Yeah when people talk about their hypothetical zombie survival plans, mine is just stay at home and eat the food I have. Realistically zombies would starve before I do because they don’t know how to use can openers.

        It bothers me more that gasoline never goes bad in these things. Things like 28 days later it’s fine, but Walking Dead and Last of Us where it’s years later… yeah those cars aren’t going anywhere anymore. I don’t expect these things to be realistic, but it would be more interesting to see people have to adapt to these kinds of problems.
