This week’s list is the Top Ten Places You Don’t Want To Be During the Zombpocalypse. Each place will also be supplemented with a zombie movie featuring a scene in that location.

1. Planes:You know that SkyMall catalog they put in the seat pockets on planes? They make money by taking advantage of an idle audience who are stuck a mile in the air. Much like a group of hungry zombies would treat the average commuter flight like a buffet lunch.

2. Hospitals: Access to medical supplies and food in a large sturdy building seems like an idealistic safe haven. But hospitals are also the last stop for many people who are about to die. Will they come back from the dead?
   Movie reference: Diary of the Dead
3. Government Shelters: The government doesn’t have a terribly good track record when it comes to providing shelter for victims during natural disasters. One only needs to look back at Hurricane Katrina to find out how inept our government can be in a crisis. If you can’t trust them in a hurricane, can you trust them in a life and death situation?

4. Underwater: Imagine being on vacation in the Caribbean, going scuba diving, and viewing a shark in it’s natural habitat… followed by a zombie. If that doesn’t make you pee in your wet suit I don’t know what will.
   Movie Reference: Zombi II
5. Your Favorite Bar: Everybody has their favorite hang-out, but you can’t necessarily sustain yourself on booze and peanuts for very long.
   Movie Reference: Shaun of the Dead
6. Zombie Convention: In other words, “Dinner is served.”
   Movie Reference: American Zombie
7. Train Station: Any place where people are trying franticly to escape, there are bound to be mistakes made, mob mentality, emotional contagion and a crowded place where infection can spread like wild-fire.

8. Church: All to often, people go to church in a time of crisis. If we learned anything from the original Dawn of the Dead, we learned that zombies go where they know. With the statistics showing that 96% of the world is religious, you have that much more of a chance that any church, synagogue, or mosque will just turn into a death trap.
   Movie Reference: Dawn of the Dead (2004)
9. Cemetery: This might seem like a no-brainer, but it definitely will be if you stumble upon an open casket or mortuary while the recently dead are returning.
   Movie Reference: Return of the Living Dead
10. Military Complex: While this may seem like a good idea, countless movies have shown otherwise, being that the zombie infection may even start because of the military or they may just be bone-headed enough to think they’re invincible.
    Movie Reference: Day of the Dead
