We dive into the horror-comedy "Cooties" where a cafeteria food virus turns elementary school children into zombie-like infected creatures, forcing teachers to band together and fight for survival against their former students.
• Film stars Elijah Wood, Rainn Wilson, and Alison Pill as teachers trapped in a school with infected children
• The virus only fully "zombifies" pre-pubescent children while adults only get flu-like symptoms
• Transmission occurs through bites and scratches, mimicking how children spread "cooties" in playground games
• Strategic barricading was effective until the children accessed the ventilation system
• Characters showed impressive resourcefulness, creating weapons from everyday school items
• Water collection and non-perishable food items are top priorities in any apocalyptic scenario
• Initial phases of societal collapse would likely have abundant housing due to population reduction
• The group agrees to watch "Cast Away" for their next episode
