I’ve always wanted a zombie movie that focused on the absurd boredom and how you might combat it. Like setting up Rube Goldberg killing machines

Honestly, the biggest issue would be mental, trying to figure out if there was any reason to continue.

I’m pretty sure I’ve read some zombie stories that brought up that very idea, killing the zombies in fun ways just because they were bored. One I can think of would be Newsflesh. Not about boredom per se, but humanity has learnt to more-or-less coexist with the Z virus. Post-post-apocalyptic setting. Killing zombies in fun and novel ways isn’t the theme, but comes up now and then. Really interesting novel.

Luckily I have a lot of experience with that debate.

So the last survivor will be chronically depressed?

If it’s me, yes.

So… Congrats? I’m sorry?
Hope you’re alright in some way 💖

There are very few humans who would not be depressed if they were the last person on earth. Even the most introverted among us are still, well, human.
