The Walking Dead (TV series on AMC)
Anyone catch the season premier? Its a new TV series based around the Zombie apocalypse. The season premier was awesome IMO. Its how I like Zombie flicks. Serious, slow moving flesh eating Zombies and lots of head explosions.
Whoever created the idea to have a Zombie TV series is a fucking genius in my book.

Sounds like it's worth checking out. One zombie movie where they all have bardspeed was enough, 28 of them was way too many. I'm glad old-school, ass-draggin' zombies are finally getting some love again.
One thing I would really like is a zombie movie where they all have bardspeed, but the actors are on some sort of wheels / track system so their legs don't move - like Gumby and Pokey when they run and go up ladders. They just sorta glide over to people uberfast and eat their brains. It would be so horrible and hilarious!

Watched part of it with Mike. He's been reading the comics faithfully forever. He pulled out book 1 and showed it to me so I could compare. I've skimmed some of the books so I kind know what's going on, but it is an ongoing series so they have plenty to work and keep up with.
I anxiously await the ending of book 1 though!

Hell yeah. Im a fan of the slow moving Zombies also. I hated whoever created the newer fast moving track star zombies.
The Walking Dead has win written all over it.

Really enjoyed the first episode, and it was nice to see they pulled no punches when it come to the gore/splatter content. The only thing that gets me (and it's common to a lot of the Zompocalypse Films) is what makes one particular hospital room safe for a comatose patient to remain munched-on-free when the Dead decide to rise?
Looking forward to watching the series. I felt sorry for the horse, but wow - those Zombies don't mess around.

Im just kind of sitting back and waiting for the critics and the people crying to mommy to have this show taken off the air due to its very graphic nature. But goddamn it, its about Zombies, its suppose to be graphic and fucked up!

We watched it last night. Had to send Kami out of the room a few times. It was pretty good. Erik's decided this is our new Sunday ritual.

Indeed, it felt short, but it was also shorter than last week's. I had looked at the time at :17, and then the next time I looked it was at :57.. it went by fast.

The first episode went for an hour and 30 minutes (including commercials) so I suspect that the pilot was longer than usual which is normal.

"The Walking Dead" has already been renewed for a 13-episode second season, after the second episode continued to pull in impressive ratings. It's the highest-rated cable series ever in the history of television in the coveted Adults 18-49 demo.
It's doing well on the international side, too- it's the highest-rated original series premiere ever to air on Fox International Channels (which broadcasts to 120 countries), which prompted the FIC Senior VP to say, "We want at least 10 seasons, if not more." (Unfortunately, that's not really her call, but it's still a pretty glowing endorsement.)

It's a groovy show so far, though it was sad when last week's episode ended without a horde of zombies being annihilated by heavy artillery.

I love this series so far. I rather loved the reunion (I'm sappy), too bad it was short lived!
Yes, I see his crazy eyes too XD

oh em gee
what a Bloodbath at the end of this past Sundays episode.
This is going down in my personal Zombie flick hall of fame.
I love the character development. Im actually connecting with the characters. That is rare for a Zombie flick since they are usually just blood and gore and everyone dies.
