"Actually I am talking about a heavy fortified Bunker, with big heavy metal doors (Something like the Swiss Reduit, take a look at wikipedia, they turned their part of the alps into a big fortification against Nazi Germany), expensive to build but also worth it in any case (Tornado, Terrorist Attack, Nuclear Fallout, War and Z-Day) but what's doing the Trick is the combination of fortifications,like digging a moat around your perimeter wall spiking it with some Bouncing Betty like IEDs, but this means long term prepardness and if they're would be smart enough to get around my trap, maybe they're as smart as these I am Legend Zombie-like creatures and then a wouldn't give a shit, because then we'll be screwed anyways

;D

"First, that movie was hardly realistic, so using it as evidence does not work."

"Of course you can't use it as evidence, like you can't use any of those films as evidence. It's only our stereotype thinking about how zombies will look like, we don't know nothing for sure about zack.

But I do know (I learned it during my qualification as a carpenter), wood isn't that resistant against anything, especially plywood isn't. The bigger the area is you try to cover with it, the easier it will break. Of course, if you place some strong beams over your doors and windows or a dureable oak wood board reinforced by Z construction (has nothing to do with Zombies it's a term from the carpenter milieu) you will be able to survive in your home. But if you only put some lousy plywood boards of the windows you will die and in the last moments of your life you will remember my words.

But on the other hand, do I really wan't to stay in my home for the rest of my entire life? No I don't want to, so I would escape to some rural area look for a nice farm build up a perimeter defense around the place so that I would easily be able to do some farming and crap like this."

"I discounted the possibility of large numbers of rage Zs using science, not movies. I asked a medical doctor, and she said that any human that is that violent and exhibits that kind of behavior (projectile vomiting blood, eating raw meat, running like a maniac despite their physical condition, etc.) would not be able to stay alive very long.

And of course the plywood would be temporary. Think of it this way:

When you first hear of the zombies, you nail plywood over the windows and reinforce the doors with some wooden beams. Then you go to Home Depot or similar store, load up on heavy construction supplies, and return home to finish barricading. The light barricades are for the short period of time it takes you to gather material for a heavier barricades.

Probably chain link on the outside (to actually keep Zs out) and plywood on the inside (to protect from glass shards, lower chance of detection) would work better than just plywood. As a light, temporary barricade, of course."
