YES.
Definitely.
The apocalypse brings the best and worst of people. The fanfic already showed rogue soldiers that enslave women while biker gangs rape and pillage any survivor community they come across.
Yeah, they will be there too. Cults of different beliefs would form. Cannibals like the ones we saw in The Walking Dead (Terminus) will also spring up because most of the processed food is now gone.
i will imagine the Cannibal Cult look like they would kidnapped people and chop of their limbs skinned their flesh or muscle for meat as sustenance while Religious Cults been like Jim Jones on Steroids.
Ah that reminds me of this scene in the Day of the Dead tie-in comic.
yeah it kinda does imagine that Cannibal Cults been always like that,
You'd probably also the likes of the Raincoat Cult from Dead Rising or the Altruist Cult from GTA: V.

Religious Cults been saying the end is near claiming zombies are the rapture as they recruiting hapless followers while their cult group had guns.You'd probably also the likes of the Raincoat Cult from Dead Rising or the Altruist Cult from GTA: V.

Man, reading entire comic books on YouTube videos of all places, this takes me back! the last time I saw something like this was in 2011.
How much damage do you think a Dawn of the Dead (2004) style outbreak would do?
Answer (1 of 4): Given the speed with which the infection takes place, and the fact that they’re not lumbering or even staggering “zombies” but they move like Daredevil, I don’t think the living would do at all well. The one saving grace is that the “Rules” in the 2004 DOTD seem to be slightly d...
A question on Quora.
Even with our knowledge of zombie pop-culture, a zombie virus that sweeps the globe in 24 hours would still cause societal collapse.
There's a backstory here on the first few seconds of the clip.
Watching the news ticker, it says:
Secretary of Defense Wesley Coller has firmly denied that any part of the current is due to any chemical or biological attack. "Due to the number of friendly and unfriendly countries involved in the outbreak, we have no reason to suspect any terrorist involvement."
Since the movie is set in May 2004, the memories of 9/11 and the ongoing deployments in Afghanistan and Iraq are still fresh in people's minds. Hence, it would be natural to think that the zombie virus was a bioweapon.
off subject, according to a source or book ,the characters at the end of the remake dawn of the dead ended up all dying ?
Well it's never been specified, but many would assume they were overrun. Only Kenneth had a shotgun with a few rounds and the gun would simply go click. The boat also ran out of fuel in Lake Michigan so it was essentially drifting. However, even if they managed to pull away from the dock, they would drift endlessly in one of the Great Lakes. They too only have a limited amount of supplies and water. Starvation or heatstroke is likely.
The most reasonable fanfiction had them pull the boat out of the dock and settle in another island (the fanfic appears to be set in the Carolinas instead of Wisconsin).
Would media scheduled to release after 2004 (examples: Star Wars Revenge of the Sith, Harry Potter books and movies made after 2004, and the last four books of Southern Victory/TL-191) be considered lost media? How is media before 2004 persevered?
As discussed previously, everything scheduled for release after May 2004 would be lost media.
From what I looked on, Revenge of the Sith was filmed between June to September 2003 and additional photography did not take place IOTL August 2004 to January 2005.
Perhaps if anyone has a copy of it, it will be considered a highly valuable treasure. Like I'd imagine a group of survivors exploring the abandoned ruins of 21st Century Fox or Lucasfilms in the ruined San Francisco and retrieving it. But as one user points out, pop culture and lost media will not be in the priority of survivors.
The same will happen for Harry Potter books and movies as well as Southern Victory/TL-191.
I dug this forum for older zombie timeline and I found this one from March 2004 (around the same time the remake was released) where in it discusses what if the Dawn of the Dead fast zombie virus occurs in that period.
Someone made a thread 15 years before mine.
I'm not disappointed.

Dawn of the dead is a masterpiece
1) It show us what would happen to survivors like Andy who where able to stay inside their houses, they wouldn't be able to sleep because of the moaning, eventually they would have to eat their pets, they would get crazy...
2) It would send us back to the prehistoric times, where we had to rely on dogs for many tasks, just as in the movie.
3) we would have to use sewers to travel from one place to the other... just as when they were rescuing Nicole.
BTW I think that the zombies would last about three months, or three months would be the time it takes for them to break down enough so they won't represent a threat, based on the Andy's lost tape short and how the zombies looked at the end of the movie.
It also shows modern man's reliance on technology and just going about their daily lives up until it all comes crashing down in 24 hours. The outbreak swept the globe in that time period and basically, modern society (c. 2004) collapsed overnight. There are still remnants of pre-outbreak civilization but the rest of the 2000s and beyond would resemble something akin to The Walking Dead.
I agree that the zombies looked pretty messed up. Considering the film ends in June 2004, the summer would be coming. The fanfic portrayed the zombies being reduced to slow shamblers by August 2004 and by 2009-2010, were practically rotting away to the point they weren't a threat but merely a nuissance.
Another topic I forgot to mention is whether there are any survivors left. I like to believe zombies rotted pretty fast like in matter of few months and that gave chance for survival to a bunch of people. People who were locked inside waiting out the zombies. This infection was carried in the blood and therefore there should be a moment where there are no more new infected, and they ones who are already infected die out, so, the virus becomes extinct. This epidemic will be remembered everywhere around the globe and would become one of the biggest if not the biggest events in recorded history. I don't really see survival as a The walking dead type of stuff, I see it as something really quick (2-4 months) Where there is no chance of surviving like in the walking dead, but instead survivors have to hide somewhere quietly.
