Thread: The Walking Dead

Kick ass, just saw a preview of a new series coming up about Zombies. Woohoo!

Braaaiiiins!!!..........Braaaaiiins!!!......

I love Zombie movies....

They will probably gay it up like they did with the Vampire genre (a la Vampire Diaries).

I hope not, the initial preview reminded me somewhat of 28 Days later.

Here's the trailer:

I liked that movie.

I loved the trailer. I read all the graphic novels in the series, and based on the trailer, they're sticking to the tone and the initial plot lines of the story. Can't wait for this to premiere. AMC has shown they have a good track record as of late in putting out great programming (Mad Men, Breaking Bad).

I love zombie movies and very interested in seeing this. However, I wish it was a showtime or HBO show doing this.

I watched the premier and week 2. This series is being done right so far. The zombies actually look like zombies and there is plenty of gore to go around.

So far a home run hit on this one.

I've enjoyed the first two episode. There's a lot more gore than what I thought there would be, considering it's on AMC.

I've been watching. Like it so far. It was written and directed by Frank Darabont who did The Shashank Redemption and the Green Mile. Good director.

I was actually amazed at the makeup on the zombies. That half woman zombie in the park dragging herself looked real. I thought that it was going to be lame as far as the makeup but was pleasantly surprised.

^Great point about the woman in the park.

Thats the other thing i REALLY enjoy about this series. For the first time in a zombie movie there was a bit of "sympathy" for what was going on and the fact the deputy felt bad about what had happened to the zombie made it more geniune. Of course, then i get all riled up about his wife banging his best friend but im sure that will come to a head soon enough. lol

I think it's awesome they are offering people the chance to win "stagger-on" roles as zombies.
