Sounds kinda like Residemt Evil: Outbreak (VG) to me. It even has the same title. If you're going to rip something off, at least do it with class, man.

Don’t know if you are around, Julian, but here’s a quick tip for ya’.

If you revise nothing else -- at the very least -- you gotta change:


Quoted from Your sixth line of dialogue

               MICHAEL
     Matt! Oh, my legs!
     Quit eating them!



While I am not a zombie aficionado myself, there are plenty of ‘em on these boards, and they will stop reading right there.

Thanks for all your constructive comments so far!

About that particular line of dialogue...consider it cut  ;D

Never really did care for that line much. Maybe just shorten it to "Matt!" or cut the line altogether.

This is Julian, btw.

Any other thoughts?

P.S.- J Gomez, did you read any of it besides the title or summary? I don't think it sounds like RE: Outbreak at all...
