plans for the inevitable undead uprising
Stryc9Fuego:
How about a good torch? Who can't make that? I'm sure that tattered cloth and dessicated flesh would burn pretty good, plus they'd set each other on fire.

Immediately before setting you and your escape route on fire. Zombies don't feel bad. Setting them on fire has essentially presented you with a walking, biting fire hazard.
Stryc9Fuego:
In an enclosed space agreed, you'd done gone and fucked yourself. Otherwise, it would burn away all of that necrotized muscle tissue leaving burnt out husks that can't do shit. This would be especially useful, say, if you're in a concrete bunker or something and will need to go on a supply run. Open a small hatch, jam a torch through to set the fire, close it up real quick, and wait for the crackling inferno to die down. That should take care of any immediate zombie threat.
jhocking:
Y'know, you guys are just assuming the zombies wouldn't react to fire. In several zombie movies I've seen however, zombies fear fire. While I agree that actually setting them on fire would be stupid, torches are so easy to make that it'd be worth having one to see if zombies are held at bay by the fire.

Depends on the source you go by. Night of the Living Dead is the absolute only thing I've seen where zombies are at all afraid of fire. The Zombie Survival Guide actually explicitely states that they are not.
