Apparently the risks associated with being a flesh-eating monster aren't always make-believe. TMZ reports that 16 actors dressed as zombies were injured when a set shifted during filming of "Resident Evil 5."

The accident happened on location in Toronto. A structure that was on wheels reportedly moved with the actors still on in, causing them to fall 20 feet.

No one was seriously hurt, but injuries included bumps, bruises and possibly some broken bones.
