Next up they need to calculate the cadaver collision, so that corpses build up in piles a barbarian hero could pose atop.

Let’s talk for a moment about the ones that got slashed in the legs/feet and immediately had their heads pop off, shall we?

Just found myself laughing fit to bust while watching this. I think there’s something wrong with me today…

That was either surprisingly boring, or I’m surprisingly desensitized.

I just hope they didn’t show any breasts.

'Cause that would be bad.

Can’t have kids seeing that.

Wouldn’t 10K zombies clog up the blender?

While I never questioned the motivation for Santas and penguins to wage war, I do wonder how this blade apparatus is powered, and maintains velocity. Underground millworks fed by a river? Sorcery?

Surprisingly strongly disappointed by the failure for zombie bits to accumulate. Saw (literal) tons of zombies get cut, but no pile of flesh ever formed.

And what are the Zombies’ victory conditions? Can they even damage that flail?

If they had any brains, they’d post a big sign “LEEV ALOON!” and call it a day.

It’s probably powered by a hallway of zombies pushing their way to the surface so they can have their turn at the blades.
