Notable in that while they can't ''actually'' read each other's minds, after years of a trio serving and training together the Arms will eventually get so good at anticipating the Head's orders that all three of them feel like they can.

''Zombies and Shit'' is a ZombieApocalypse SurvivalHorror-BizarroFiction novel by Creator/CarltonMellickIII.
Twenty people wake to find themselves in a boarded-up building in the middle of the zombie wasteland. They soon discover they have been chosen as contestants on a popular reality show called ''Zombie Survival''. Each contestant is given a backpack of supplies and a unique weapon. Their goal: be the first to make it through the zombie-plagued city to the pick-up zone alive. But because there's only one seat available on the helicopter, the contestants not only have to fight against the hordes of the living dead, they must also fight each other.
A campy, trashy, punk rock gore fest that is as funny as it is brutal, as sad as it is strange. An edge-of-your-seat thrill ride that twists the zombie genre into something you've never seen before, but always wanted to.

!!This work provides examples of:
* AWorldHalfFull: [[spoiler:Wayne has the zombie-killing device snuck on set within a lawn gnome meant as a zombie-repellant weapon where Scavy and Mr. T plan on amplifying the device's signal, ending the zombie menace once and for all and bringing down the corrupt regime of the Platinum Quadrant in the process.]]
* TheApunkalypse: The Merc Punks are a roaming tribe of people that adapted to live outside of the human settlements.
* CrapsackWorld: Most of the world has been brought down by a plague of highly infectious and nigh-unkillable zombies. In one of few remaining settlements is separated into different Quadrants. Drugs, rape, gang violence, human trafficking, child prostitution and virtually every urban horror you could imagine is present in the Copper Quadrant, with those in the Gold and Platinum Quadrants exploiting them for cheap and dangerous labor until they were drugged and dragged of to be killed in the twisted reality show ''Zombie Survival'' for their entertainment.
* GoldMakesEverythingShiny: Mr. T has a robot body built from his own melted down gold.
* ImmoralRealityShow: ''Zombie Survival'' is a reality show for the elite where random people from the poor Copper Quadrant are drugged and transported to a warehouse in the Red Zone. They are each given a random weapon and are then told to got to a landing site. They'll have to make it through zombie-infested wastelands until they can make it to the landing site where a rescue helicopter and the grand prize are waiting for them, and both are only aloud for '''one''' survivor.
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Wayne Rizla has an affair with another woman (having only married for his wife's wealth), and when she comes to him revealing that she was pregnant, he uses his influence to have her moved to the slums of the Copper Quadrant. After his wife dies, he becomes curious of what became of his unborn child and finds out that she has been orphaned and is now the underaged prostitute Ariana. When he goes in person to tell her that she is his daughter and that he wants to take her back with him to the Platinum Quadrant. The jaded Ariana thinks this is just some kind of role-play and proceeds to [[ParentalIncest suck him off]]. He does nothing to stop her and ends up becoming a repeat customer to her. The thought of having sex with his own daughter without her even knowing the truth turned him on, and having his own daughter torn apart by zombies on live television didn't kill this arousal one bit.

* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Undead with a particular hunger for brains. Destruction of the brain (or anything really) are completely ineffective, they start off intelligent but slowly degrade before they. Mindlessly hunt shouting "brains!". Extra points for adding ZombiePukeAttack that eats away at people's flesh and infects them on contact.
