The Walking Dead

Possible, I suppose.
But really, how "ultra" can the violence be when the opponent is slow and stupid?

Ultra may have been the wrong word.
But the slowness may be the point. People watch vicariously and totally see themselves putting an axe through the head of a slow and stupid adversary as opposed to a skilled ninja or a heavily armed foe that you get with other entertainment genres.

Zombie literature has an undeniable visceral appeal.

Zombie literature has an undeniable visceral appeal.

Viscera would be the crux of the appeal, I should think.

Did someone mention viscera?

My most fervent wish is that something like this comes to pass and most of you are eaten by zombies.

Except zombies don't really eat people, do they?
If they did, there wouldn't be any zombies.

Of all the zombie material I've read/seen so far only two make any sense...World War Z was an excellent overview of the effects of a pandemic (zombies) on all aspects of society and the Newsflesh trilogy actually has reasonably coherent explanation of the medical origins and repercussions of a zombie outbreak.
As for movies, I don't think anything will ever top Romero's original Night of the Living Dead (which I saw during it's original release).
Placed in context, few movies have been as horrifying (Alien would be comparable) and none as bleak.

Basically, I don't get all the zombie love lately.

They just aired a black and white version of the premiere episode of The Walking Dead and for some reason b&w and zombies go together like summer days and cold beer.

Also to quote Rocky,let me tell you something that you probably already know,World War Z comes out in about a year starring no less than Brad Pitt.

Then there's Warm Bodies which has a good director and interesting cast.

I actually read the book which although certainly has a unique premise ,doesn't really have a lot of places to go.

Apparently there are problems, they're reshooting now, reports vary on how much is getting jettisoned.
Doesn't bode well though.

Getting Warm Bodies now (actually, got it already).

Is this anywhere for download?

Download the pilot of Walking Dead and turn off the color on your TV when watching it.

You're welcome.

Awesome.



I watched season 1 when AMC repeated it recently and this trailer hints at what made me like that season far more than I did 2 or 3.

It's a little early to be getting anyone excited over this, you cocksucker.

You seem to have me confused with someone whose job is to keep you happy.
