When the zombie apocalypse arrives, I’m calling my buddy Blain

macgyver zombies

Which TV or movie hero do you want beside you when the zombie apocalypse arrives? I was going to pick MacGyver for his ingenius ability to make booby traps and diversions, but then my pal Christopher Tupa chimed in first, so I opted for plan B. After thinking about it for a while though, I realized that plan B was probably the best option anyway since MacGyver is a bit of a pacifist. What do you think …

If the zombie horde starts knocking on the door, I can’t think of a better guy to be standing next to (behind) than the “sexual tyrannosaurus” himself, Blain from Predator. I mean, this guy is tailor-made for this scenario! He can forage for food and provide shelter using whatever resources are available. He’d keep your spirits up when the situation got dire. He’s trained in every weapon known to mankind, and when the ammo runs out of his M134 Minigun, well.. he can drop an elbow on any zombie that dares to enter his space.

    Nice! He would make a great zombie-blasted partner! And with all the Special Forces training, he would be perfect for the job!

    He also died pretty fast against an alien/lizard/thing, but I think he’ll stand his ground very well against less subtle foes. Good choice.

      But to be fair, the alien was invisible. 😉

      Yeah, there is that. I’m sure he’d blame the zombie uprising on the government.

      A solid pick. It’s always a good idea to go with the guy with experience.
