World War Z Book vs Movie
In the Book |
In the Movie |
The Zombie war has been going on for ten years. |
The events of the zombie outbreak are only covered for a few weeks. |
Many areas are not affected by the Zombie outbreak. Much of the UK is not infected. |
The entire world, save Israel is overrun by zombies.
|
The North Korean population disapears into tunnels under the country to avoid the zombies. |
The population has their teeth removed so that no one can be bitten. |
Governments all over the world use convicted criminals as a distraction for the zombies so the rest of the population can attempt to flee. The criminals are dropped into the infected zones. |
This doesn't happen.
|
The Army wages a huge battle in Yonkers New York where they try and fail to stop the zombies. |
There is no battle of Yonkers. |
