Anything with zombies. Zombies scare the fuck out of me. Even Thriller zombies.

+1

For some reason the idea of zombies just really wigs me out. If anything like a zombie apocalypse were to really happen, I would just kill myself. No becoming a badass zombie killer for me. I wouldn't even try. I can't stand the idea of some rotting, shambling creature killing me by ripping me apart with its teeth

I think it is because with most monsters you either die or become that monster (while still essentially being yourself). But not with zombies. You are this living dead thing. Does it have consciousness? And you are now a danger to your loved ones.

I am exactly the same and all my friends make fun of me for it. I guess I just can't convey the existential horror I feel at the thought of facing an enemy that can't really be overcome, and despite its slowness and apparent vulnerability will just keep coming and if it falls there are ten more in its place. And worse, most zombie fiction posits a zombie apocalypse, where there is literally nowhere on Earth to run to or hide from the zombies because they are everywhere and constantly spreading and increasing their ranks. I mean, at that point why would you even bother going all Badass Zombie Killer? You'd only be prolonging your own fear and suffering.

Same here. It's awkward, because I'm weirdly phobic of zombies, but I kind of love the zombie-survival genre.

For me, it's a combination of the fact that they never rest, never get distracted or afraid or tired, can't be reasoned with or intimidated, and will just keep coming for you no matter what -- and the infection factor. Things that can infect you are DNW for me.

Dear gods, same here. Certain zombies I can stand, like Reg Shoe from Discworld or Fido from the film of the same name (and even that movie freaked me out a little), but I had nightmares for months after seeing Resident Evil at age 16 (I wasn't sure I wanted to see it to begin with, but my then-girlfriend insisted), and was a little jumpier than usual even long after the nightmares stopped. Stupidly enough, three years later I thought I was completely over all of that and watched Shaun of the Dead. Turns out I was not over all of that.

TL;DR: I am a total wuss when it comes to zombies and gore.
