100 Apocalyptic Zombie Innovations (UPDATE)

These Ideas Will Help You Fight Them Off

— December 4, 2013 — Pop Culture
These apocalyptic zombie innovations will help you prepare for the invasion of the undead. You’ll find all you need to gear up and fight back and some extra items to blend in with the walking dead. There are makeup tutorials to get that gruesome, skin-peeling, extra dead look so you can disguise yourself amongst them before attacking. Or, if you really want to pack some punch, there are tanks designed just for zombie ploughing.

Fans of The Walking Dead will also love these apocalyptic zombie innovations. There’s something about being chased by an army of flesh-eating dead guys that gives you a more appreciative outlook on life. If it’s already too late and the zombies have won you over, you can enjoy some delicious zombie brain cupcakes with your bottle of warm True Blood.
