This is pretty simple. If you were in area and there were no items crafted to be weapons (swords, guns etc.) and you were being chased by a maniac, which makeshift weapon would you choose and why?
Chain Necklace
It can keep people at bay by whipping of hitting them with it, you can wear it easily and you can strangle people with it.

A big tree branch, your shoe and the laces from them, your keys, a belt, a piece of asphalt from the road that's broken off, it all depends on the environment. What does the maniac have? In most situations the best thing to do when being chased by a weapon wielding maniac is run away.

Get a rock and a stick and make a make shift axe or mallet.

If they were available, moderately sized rocks.
I can throw pretty hard, and I feel like I could hit them at distance at least a few times.
Steel trashcan lid would be a good mix of offense and defense if you could grab one.

My mind's always racing so I'm always thinking about what could be used for what... and I watch a lot of Survivorman. ;)
I guess the weapon thing is just natural because I USED TO get in a ton of fights and liked it too.

Find your way deep into the woods.
The dogs can smell your path.
Try to find a way out of this.
There seems to be no chance.
Bounty hunters closer to you.
Start to remember back.
When you studied biology
back in your high school class.
Wait now, what did they say
about the human body and proportions of things?
Blood is an energy conductor.
I am full of that all I need is an outlet.
They're getting closer
but now you have a plan.
Lead them to the generator
where there's solid land.
The concrete floor will do just fine
and electric outlets.
Open up your veins and splash the blood
and hit the power lines.
Bloodrocuted
Bloodrocuted
You'll be bloodrocuted
You'll be bloodrocuted
You'll be bloodrocuted right now
Enemies stand dead in your blood.
The smell of cooking skin.
All of them with their hair on end
Their eyes exploded in.
You stand with your arms bleeding still
You cannot stop the flow.
Though you are the victor tonight
your time has come to go.
Anywho, it depends on what weapons the enemy has, and if we can change something about ourselves in this hypothetical situation. Personally, I'd try to give myself AIDS, and then I'd start spitting and vomiting on the enemy. Does that count, or do I have to do something like take whisky and a bic lighter with me?

I do believe that I've made it clear in the HDC movies that my weapon of choice would be an axe, even if I'd have to make it myself.

I think a 2x4 would be a very good way of attack. Or like in Shaun of the Dead a cricket stick.

rocks and sticks
smash a rock against another rock and you have an adz, which can be tied to a stick (with either shoelaces or fresh bark or reeds) to form a hatchet or used to sharpen sticks into spears.
I do a lot of camping and impress the kids with this kind of primitive weapon-making...we're totally prepared for the zombiepocalypse!

This question used to keep me up at night when I was a kid, alone in my room (only child)... What would happen if the folks were slaughtered downstairs and the psychopath was creeping up to my room...
I came to the conclusion that the only "weapon" in my room would be my boombox. I would have the drop on him as he came up the stairs... Then I could whack him with one of my swimming trophies... They all have marble bases, so I figured that that would definitely so some damage. Then I'd crawl out my bedroom window onto the porch roof and jump off, grasping the trophy.
...
But as for now, if I were outside and without immediate weapons... Probably a garbage can lid coupled with a fencepost. That should be pretty dangerous... We have a broken metal fence outside of my apartment... I might take a piece of that. The kids downstairs also leave their Razor Scooters outside. I bet I could use one of THEM as a weapon!
Too bad us Americans don't have cricket bats. haha

There is another game a lot of Americans play with bats... I promise.
Anyway, I guess I better start going through this thread carefully now that I'm right here by the 1st and 3rd most dangerous cities in America. :rolleyes:
What a bunch of crap that is... it's not that bad I promise.

I'd be wearing the chain necklace. I might use a brocken tree branch that is slightly sharp to stab as wel.

So if I wanted to kill you I would wait to stage my assult, you wouldn't know I wanted you dead until I snatched your big necklace and choked you to death with it. It would also give me a convenient handle to use to drag your corpse into an alley.

I didn't realize we could have humanoids as weapons, in that case I would choose David Letterman, he could bore them to death for me..

If someone is chasing me really fast, right behind me, I would simply fall to the ground abruptly, become a log, and let him/her trip over over me onto the face---and hopefully on asphalt.
I have always wondered if it would work...

A halloween Ressurection DVD, they'd see jamie lee curtis was in it and think it must be a good one, then when busta rhymes appears and they're going "WTF?" I'd run. If they didn't want to watch it, I'd just take the disc out of the case and throw it at they're neck. Oddjob away!!!

Death has come to your little town, Sheriff. Now you can either ignore it, or you can help me to stop it.
...
I actually thought of another couple of useful weapons...
It being November, near local election time, there is a veritable cornucopia of "ELECT ___!!" signs posted into many and various lawns. Also, going through our current housing crisis, there are just as many "FOR SALE" signs conveniently located in just as many lawns...
Kick to the sign over and you're left with a jagged wooden stake.
Would also work with wooden mailboxes.
