Small inaccuracy here, it is NEVER advised to attempt to neutralize acid that is spilled on someone. The correct option is to wash with copious amounts of water, as a base strong enough to quickly neutralize HCl quickly would burn you, and generate tons of heat from the neutralization reaction.

"Everyone is on acid these days." could've been a missed line of opportunity.

"If you find yourself in this particular precinct... LEAVE IMMEDIATELY." That made me laugh far harder than it should have.

Love B movie logic, somehow the victims of Gallo became zombies even though the acid rain didn't touch them. Then people who are bitten turn even though it's not pathogenic zombies but chemical zombies that had contact with the rain.

This is why I love Nerd Explains, he does any Movie he can find and opens us to horror movie worlds most of us haven't even heard of... Or at least ones I haven't heard of

We need to challenge moviemakers to make a zombie movie with smart protagonists. Contrive how the zombies become the apocalyptic threat however, but make the main characters do all the smart things we expect and only be forced to move by bad luck or something. I dunno, just would be nice to be surprised by smart characters. Especially if they survive because of their level-headed thinking rather than plot armor and dumb luck.

Huge respect to you for watching all these movies no one else can get through xD

I feel like the scariest movies would be the ones in which even when the main character is smart, and they do everything right, but the threat is just too powerful

Honestly, holding out till help arrives probably wouldn't be too difficult. The zombie-acid-rain seems to be fairly localized, so once it clears up the entirety of the national guard would probably come rolling in. Unless the government decides to nuke the area. It depends on if the intelligence of our main characters is considered the norm in that world.

"acid rains that turns people into zombies" I would be immune to it since I spend 24/7 inside with 2 months of supplies and plenty of lead needles

I would love it if he made a video on how to survive the “ghosts” in Spectral

Id have given Jimmy a 2/5 score. He grabbed the bat to defend himself which is better than most. Didn't know how to use it though, so no higher

Nerd Explain's personality is the best lmao

Honestly, im not expecting a Movie like this to have a 4th Grade understanding of Basic Chemicals, nor for it to have a Military with a IQ above Room Tempature.

How it would go if I were in the movie, as someone three steps from being a hermit: "Oh I'm so glad you survived the acid rain zombies!" "... There were acid rain zombies?"

You mentioned 7 Days to Die, I'd love to hear your thoughts on how you'd take on the challenge of surviving in that world. It seems difficult with the variety of zombies and their annoying pathing logic. Probably won't happen, but it would be fun to see your thoughts.

Nerd Explains: The first thing we need to do is learn as much as we can about everyone in the group as quickly as possible. Cinema Summary: That's right. We need to determine who among us is the most expendable in the highly likely event that we have to resort to cannibalism to survive. NE: That...that's not exactly where I was going with this. CS: Now you would think our fattest members would make the best meals, but it's been proven that lean muscle provides much more nutrition than fat. NE: Who hurt you?

This movie seems like it used Amityville to capitalize off of the horror associated with it from the Amityville Horror franchise. Bless you for covering this so we don’t accidentally expose ourselves to this travesty. Dr. Ira, I was rooting for you. We were all rooting for you… lmao

I love hearing you talk about proper procedures and how following them could have actually helped. I work in an industrial place where stuff like that is very important. We aren't going to create zombies accidentally or anything like that but we could definitely make big environmental messes and following procedures can help prevent that and mitigate issues if something crazy does happen. It's just cool to hear somebody who either has to follow these procedures or has at least done some research about it talk about it in the context of silly movies like this. The only thing I would add is that the person's first call would likely be to someone who specifically deals with environmental stuff and then that person would immediately begin making the calls to the right people and mobilizing cleanup efforts. Especially if it's a large operation which this one seems to be as it's attached to the military stuff. Either way, awesome video and stuff like this is why I consider this channel to be the best of the How To Beat genre!

Love it when Nerd Explains does a zombie movie instead of another boring death game

for a survivor score of 0 I think it would look better if you made it a star's outline rather than leaving it blank, but overall very fun watch and looking forward to the next upload

As a former soldier the thing that bugs me the most unsurprisingly is how badly they equip or show military in most of these movies even when they are good or funny. Still love these movies and your videos. I have been binging them just for a laugh. FYI MOP4 for long periods sucks. Also that place would be swarming soldiers, tanks, helicopters, and all sorts of goodies real damn quick if not utterly destroyed if it got to bad. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! KEEP IT UP! :D How to beat? Common sense and firearms.

This videos main point (opposite of many actually) is "DONT JUST SHOOT UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY KNOW ITS A THREAT"

I feel like this is one of the easiest zombie situations to survive. Wouldn’t the zombies outside eventually melt away and that’s assuming the rain lasts a long time so if you wait a few hours inside any zombies outside would probably be too dissolved to catch up to you

4:50 that's no chemical explosion that's a comical explosion

Acid zombies wow thats a new one

Don't put baking soda on acid if it's on someone the bubbling could make dealing with the volatile substance less contained. And a strong acid like HCl will produce a good bit of heat in excessive amounts. It's best just to rinse it with water

I would like to thank nerd explains for suffering through terrible movies and potentially putting himself on government watch list as he does research. Your entertaining and thorough videos help boost my survival and curb my boredom

Best channel on KZfaq

Having a spouse who is the director of a biology lab at a major university, I truly commend your commitment to protective equipment, perhaps best emphasized in your videos on "The Thing." Great job as always!

I love how much faith you have in disaster response.

I'd adore seeing you do Pontypool! It'd be interesting to see how you would handle that frankly incredibly unique situation; plus it's an awesome movie.

The only explanation for this is if the zombies and acid rain are actually unrelated and just so happen to be happening at the same time.

Common sense: is a thing The people in this movie: no

Notifications actually worked this time 😎

This movie makes sharknado look like an Oscar winning movie

Thank you for your content man! Much appreciated

I live near Amityville and have driven through the town and even went to the location that is “cursed”. It’s not. It’s a regular Long Island suburb.

i love the amount of detail and effort put into all your vids, great work!👍

PLEASE do "The sadness" next. I think it's a decent zombie apocalypse.

Joe Gallow..."hey he's a killer, lets give him a scary name, except i got nothing." "yall ever see impractical jokers?"

Hilarious when a movie cant get ANY details right about cops and the military. The first guys on scene would DEFINITELY be the CBRN unit, mopp gear and all. Takes so little to look this up and what the gear is lol

I'm obsessed with your videos it's amazing and your voice over is on point!

Love the video! I would love to see you do Cloverfield next!

"negligent discharge" XD. That's why NerdExplains is golden.

This videos of Nerd Explains are the only things that cure my depression somehow lol

As someone who just graduated BMT on in July, I immedietly thought "Why dont they have on MOPP gear and why didnt they preform M.A.R.C.H. or massive hemorrhage, airway, respirations, circulation, head injury/hypothermia to check the wounded?" haha terrible soldigers

This guy works hard and well! Keep it up bro!!!!

I love how much he reserchs for each recap so much dedication

Just want to say I love you guys

man i love your videos im bench watching all your videos rn and i love it keep me busy when im bored ♥

The right mix of informative & sarcastic. My kind of lessons! 😁

That explosion in the beginning was next level CGI..... 🤦

“oh boy… where do we start” i fuckin love this channel

11:25 and 20:00 These parts are absolutely hilariously narrated🤣🤣. This is why Nerd Explains is by far the best at making these types of videos.

absolutely love how the rain moves with the camera

Genious Nerd Explains love it 👍

This KZfaqr is one of the most og. Any day it's the same yet reliable channel pog. Also y'all gotta sponsor him he be doing weird ahh magic because he sneaks on them so good like one time he was like this "ok these guys wouldn't have needed to play this death game if they had honey which is today's sponsor" like I'm pissed on how good he does it. Masterpiece

I love your content I binge these everyday

7:50 still a better performance than Adam faking death in saw 1

best channel tbh, perfect for basically everything

Good knowledge mate I enjoy your videos very clued up and yes I serve in the military and you are hundred percent right although I am from the UK the protocols differ but the basis is pretty much on point and we are typically all fire fighting trained I been binging on these videos mate good stuff 💪👍

The fact that he knows who CAG is: that's great script writing 🤣

I always love his zombies how to beat.

Nerd Explains roasting moronic characters never gets old

Hell Yeah! Loving the content

Please do more zombie videos please i enjoy them and i could watch them for hours

Good video keep the zombie videos coming bro.

Have literally been binging your zombie videos recently... are you reading my mind? If so thanks, it's really nice that you made this just for me!

The fact that anyone managed to die in this movie is impressive. The acid rain is just plain magic. Somehow it's chemical, pathological and demonic all at the same time.

Favorite youtuber right here

This is the first movie with BEATEN but everyone dies lol

This is the exact moment Nerd Explains became Hannibal Lecter

Having played alot of resident evil my first instinct is grabbing that damn tarp and getting any friends and survivors to a bus or something or a separate building not before looting the damn armory since these cops are more useless than the ones in raccoon city (no im not mentioning that small town in texas for a massive crap ton of reasons) board and barricade the building since the bus will melt. And have enough food and water. 2nd step since probably raiding the armory was a good idea (since that cop at the range has the aim of a storm trooper) and the tarps still good id see if i would have some flares as i have someone work on getting the comms up and running. If the comms cant be fixed and i have flares that might be a good idea to get the militaries attention but that might also attract the melting undead. If things were perfect the the comms were fixed instead and i had say 2 flares id save that for a light source when evacuation comes and the power is knocked out and also to still get someones attention. While that is going on the building will be checked and secured until help comes. Now for the assault from the horde, give every able-bodied friend and fellow survivor a firearm if they know how to work and go for headshots with em good if not ill give em a knife or blunt force object like a baton the less friendly fire incidents that can happen the better. Once all that happens hold out wait for the rain to stop proceed to higher ground the roof most likely and toss a flare up there without touching the remaining acid pools, get someones attention once help arrives and should the infected break in put on a surpressing fire and get out on the possible police or military helicopter to safety if anyones infected? No chances bullet to the brain man cant allow this crap to break out.

Favorite KZfaqr 👍🏾

Love the commitment to explaining this as if it were real to the point movie fuckups are blamed on the characters

Nerd explains is a legend

Nice vid man😩

Nice just in time

Love your humor

that 7 days to die reference got me, didnt expect it at all lol

loving the 7 days to die references, awesome game

Amityville Uprising vs 28 Days Later vs 30 Days of Night.

LEZ GO NEW NERD EXPLAINS VID

Bro that bomb/mushroom cloud at the start of the video is prime cgi 💯

Could you do a video on 47 Metres Down: Uncaged plz. Love your content!

The part about Minnesota, shorts and flops in January is very accurate as a fellow Minnesotan who dresses like that 😅

i love your videos

9:33 "Don't walk off into Rain that melts off your skin" I agree, but... Human Skin has a small initial resistance to acid, so it might actually take her a few seconds to feel pain, then to realise whats going on. But yes, the natural instincts would then kick in to start running back instead to standing still.

Hey Nerd I have a movie I think you should try and beat... Rogue It's a movie about a giant croc stalking a group of people taking a croc tour on a remote river in the Northern Territory Australia. I think I just really want too see how you would deal with that situation. P.s. your the best❤❤❤

3:43 - Add to that, the firefighters/first responders for facilities like that are basically designated dead men for the same reasons Chernobyl firefighters were. Some of the stuff they work with, no amount of PPE is going to save you from it - just slow it down. But you'll live long enough to close valves, seal areas off, and get the worst of it all contained so other people can do the clean up without dying. Good death benefits, though.

God was like; "Damn a chemical explosion? Might as well clean house!"

How dare you show the LA Beast for a himbo! His stomach makes a 40k Space Wolf jealous for how it handles toxic and spicy stuff.

Why is it that I already knew nobody was gonna survive based on this guys tone in the beginning

this video is far better than the actual movie.

He’s like cinema summary with a personality and consious

Could you do a How to Survive for Jurassic Park or World?

cant wait to watch this

It's so funny how he uses the hills have eyes national guard as a comparison lol

As the Minnesota kid who wears shorts and flip flops in winter... I love you lol.
