Bloated Butcher

"Slower and more deliberate than their axe-wielding comrades, are much tougher to kill. You'll have to dish out a lot of abuse before they go down. Beware of the foul goo they vomit at you, for it is both corrosive and unpleasant smelling."

- Blood manual.

Bloated Butchers, also known as Fat Zombies, are tougher undead-types appearing in Blood. They first appear in Episode 2.

Description
Bloated Butchers are heavy-set zombies being taller than Axe Zombies with pale eyes, completely no hair, and wield meat cleavers from their right hand. They wear blue pants and stained undershirts with a bloody-hole from their stomachs. They sport with a large wound located behind their backs.

If one looks closely, the Bloated Butcher's mouth seems to drool with some blood.

Involvement
They walk slower than Axe Zombies but can take much more damage. They use meat cleavers at Caleb in close range or use to throw with which causes spirit damage, and vomit harmful green pukes at him in long range. While following and attacking, they speak in a garbling voice; "Join us!" and "It is a very long time!".

Unlike the Axe Zombie, they cannot get up after collapsing nor decapitated.

Using the Voodoo Doll on the Bloated Butcher will cause his body to split in half (with his both arms falling apart) to expose his skeleton. After few seconds, the skeleton finally collapsed.

Official bestiary
Sure, they're bloated, rotting corpses that lurch around like drunks, but don't let that lull you near them. The cleavers they carry have taught some bitter lessons to careless adversaries. You're best bet is to air them out with a sawed-off shotgun at point blank range--assuming you've got the huevos to get that close to them!

Trivia

 * Their appearance was inspired by Uncle Frank from the 1990's horror film Night of the Living Dead.
 * Bloated Butchers are one of the enemies to have a unique death animation caused by the Voodoo Doll. The other being the Axe Zombie.
