As my college RA who suffered from an extreme fear of zombies once told us during one of his multiple zombie preparedness meetings:
You underestimate our ability to analyze every problem and solution, and then light both of them on fire.
They would not have liked the Humans vs Zombies events.
Except if destruction of the brain kills zombies, their heads would explode from the heat, probably within 5-10 minutes.
He was forgetting the most important step: you have to nail their feet to the floor before you light them up.
Um what?
Yeah, if you ever wonder how we got to this situation, the number of people who seriously prepare for zombie apocalypse and studying zombie movies for tips is non-zero. It's a depressingly non-zero number.
