You know, if the army took zombies, there wouldn't be no manpower problems. They could be killled, come back from the dead and be re-killed over and over--sort of like this film clip. And talk about your Shock and Awe.
Of course, then the film clip would end with them eating the kids' brains. And that wouldn't be so good, public relations-wise.
