  • Could a bite from this zombie shark spread the zombie virus back to people?
let's see:
  1. sharks have incredible immune systems: http://www.associatedcontent.com/art..._diseases.html
    so they'd at least have a way better chance of not turning (or a chance, period).
  2. if a bite from a zombie human turned the shark into a zombie shark, i don't see why it wouldn't perpetuate the zombie virus underseas. after all, brain activity in human zombies is reduced to something primal. only the need to satisfy hunger drives them. it'd be the same in a shark, i guess.
  3. i don't see why not.

i really enjoy fulci's work (mostly). he's made quite a few duds, too, of course. i really enjoy the beyond, the house by the cemetery, don't torture a duckling, lizard in a woman's skin, and he's even made some spaghetti westerns.
