i used to have vivid, horrible nightmares as a kid about zombies, except they were fast moving ones, which wasn't a thing in Hollywood back then. the first fast moving zombie-type movie i saw was 28 Days Later, which scared the living shit out of me, mostly because the scenario in that movie was more believable than dead cannibals. i was new to guns at that point, and only had a handgun, and a few boxes of ammo for it. after seeing the movie, any little sound would wake me up, and i'd check on the kids, check the locks on the door, and wait at the window, looking for movement.
afterwards, thinking about the movie, and what the characters went through (no supplies on hand, no readily available weapons), and the reality of a pandemic of some sort, i decided to start preparing to the worst. less than 6 months after seeing 28 Days Later, i had a few thousand rounds of 9mm, a shotgun, over 200 shells for it, and the trunk of van was filled with enough supplies for a family of 6 to last for 2 weeks.
