Zombie-Killing Advice, from the Experts
It's Halloween, so we couldn't go all day without at least mentioning our favorite scary movies. Well, sort of. Scary movie vets Sam Raimi (The Evil Dead), Bruce Campbell, Eli Roth (Hostel), Darren Lynn Bousman (Saw II), Quentin Tarantino, and a host of other horror actors and filmmakers offered their expertise on how to survive the imminent undead uprising, and MTV.com is kind enough to spread the word.
Sam Raimi, director of The Evil Dead and Spider-Man series, says: "If the dead should rise, you're going to want to get yourself a shotgun, a chainsaw and someone to watch your back. It's also good to have a partner, so that they can get taken down first. And that makes you not only the survivor, but also the star of the show."
MTVSaw series director Darren Lynn Bousman offers: "The majority of zombies can't run... So as long as you can run, you're OK. I myself don't run — so I'd be screwed."
Zombie killer and professional bad-ass Bruce Campbell agrees that "all you have to do is run," but Hostel and Cabin Fever director Eli Roth warns: "One mistake people make is they get cocky, just 'cause they're fast, but it's like the tortoise and the hare. People start running and running, and then they stop and take a nap. The zombies are lumbering, but they don't sleep!"
