One of the best parts of NOTLD 68 for me is where Harry Cooper and Ben argue about barricading themselves in the basement, or boarding up and defending the farm house. What would you of done? Or done differently?

NOTLD 68 - The great debate

I would of tried to knock down the stairs, take all the supplies up on the second floor. I still would of barricaded the windows better. Get some work done instead of argueing with Harry Cooper. If I barricaded myself in the basement, I would of pushed the Piano in front of the door, knocked out the wheels. But that was still a bad ideal, especially if the house caught fire.

Yes, Ive seen NOTLD 68 30+ times, so these are the crazy things I think about everytime I watch it. NOTLD 90 is fantastic to. Ive seen that movie 15-20 times to.

i wouldnt even worryabout supplies other than the guns...i would just go upstairs and once it got to crazy or there was no signs of help..i would jump outside and run my ass off haha

If I was Ben I would of tried to get gas first thing, before to many zombies surrounded the place, he had a tire iron. you dont have to break the lock, just the pot metal sorrounding the lock.

I would have gotten out of the house and made a run for it.

attic is my pick, zombies can't fly.

They can't fly, but they can start fires.
I would choose higher levels rather than trapped in the basement with no escape.

true, but is it is easier to climb or jump down than tunnel out.

Exactly. If you ran out of food in the basement there wouldn't be a way to go out and look for food. Zombies would be blocking the doors. If you jumped from the roof at least you have some chance of getting away. Unless you break a limb from the jump. Most people can't/don't know how to land a big jump.

difficult not to argue with a chump like mr cooper, ben was a good guy, in the event of a zombie outbreak i sure hope i meet someone like that. Ben was right to go for the gas, it would have worked had the others not panicked.

Up the stairs bringing as much supplies as you can. Try to knock out the stairs or create a barricade. If that can't be done then into the attic.:think:

I hear what your saying but at the same time when the kids blow up by the gas pump the zeds wait then drag the bodies out of the fire and start munching.:loon: Crazy zeds.:loon:

The upstairs theory might be good, but when the zombies start to enter the house...there is a whole lotta them. I have never seen anyone tackle the idea of zombies craving so much that they actually begin to step/climb the other zombies. Just not sure if they could get to the 2nd floor..(no thought process just the hunger driving them.)
