That was a question I had for my wife at the beginning, when they were showing the zombie herd heading for the farm. What happens to zombies if they don't find any live people to chow down on? Do they eventually drop....um, dead?

I always thought of it more as sort of pain relief for them to eat. Like some desire to be part of the living again.

not that there's any direct correlation, but I remember the same thing being said by an actual zombie in one of the return of the living dead. The one that takes place in the cemetary.

Wasn't it 28 Days Later where the "infected" could die of starvation? I liked that aspect of that movie.

Yes, but that's because they aren't zombies in the traditional sense. They are still alive, but infected with a virus called Rage. So yes, if they don't eat, they die.

In World War Z they just eventually rot to the point where they can't move any more. Or something like that.

You are correct. The zombies in "Return of the Living Dead" only ate the brains. It took "the pain of being dead away" according to one of the zombies captured in the movie.

One of the funnier zombie movies ever. Lots of good stuff. Love the fact that the medical supply guys were named Bert and Ernie.

Yep, the only zombie movie with talking zomies. And I agree the ending sucked. Just a way to set up for endless direct to video sequels, of which there a 5 total.
