That's no bad thing though, looks cool

I haven't looked at the clip as I'm in work, but are they proper Romero zombies, ie. the ones that don't run at 30mph?

If so, they're the best sort.

[RaG]Ethel · 02-Aug-2010, 16:01

shambling rather than sprinting, so yes.

Ashen · 02-Aug-2010, 16:03

Yep its the classic zombie, easy to avoid one on one but when they swarm your fucked

Envy · 02-Aug-2010, 19:15

I've been following this comic since issue 1. It's harsh! i hope they stick to the comic

nick-fury · 02-Nov-2010, 15:34

This is out at the usual sources now btw, it's pretty darn good aswell !

jackthezipper · 02-Nov-2010, 16:04

Slow zombies but in a pack they move a little faster.

burundi · 02-Nov-2010, 16:46

First ep was fantastic, a bit gruesome in places but then it is a zombie series, so to be expected. If it stays this good it could earn itself a second series, I'm certainly looking forward to the next ep.

Stays true to the comic then. That doesn't shy away from some graphic bits.

Kenny · 02-Nov-2010, 17:17

T3CH^ · 03-Nov-2010, 17:34

Unusual that a US show would show a child zombie being blown away. they usually shy away from that sort of thing.

Felt sorry for the horse tho

Kenny · 03-Nov-2010, 18:50

Yeah was good but left on abit of a cliff hanger though .

Envy · 03-Nov-2010, 22:06

Watched it earlier today and loved it. I felt sorry for the horse as well

Hapless · 05-Nov-2010, 21:51

On FX in 10 mins, can't wait.

FTM · 06-Nov-2010, 00:06

its fucking ace!

the wifes full of cold so off to bed at 10pm she went with her hot water bottle..I have a bottle of bowmore and zombies to watch

Chef_uk · 06-Nov-2010, 01:57

I think the horse scene was a bit too much and wasn't needed to get across the message they are flesh eating zombies! But the rest was ace

mAF · 06-Nov-2010, 03:41

Me and the g/f liked it alot cant wait for the next episode

Went to my local comic store last week and they were plugging the graphic novels anyone read any ? what are they like ?

The young girl getting shot in the forehead was fine, but the maiming of a horse? no no

Ashen · 06-Nov-2010, 11:47

Watched it earleir and wish I never as I would of loved to of watch all the episodes back to back but now im going to be watching it week by week. I may even pop into the comic shop tomorrow and see how much a graphic novel of it cost.

They didnt seem to shy away from showing the headshots too. Didnt they show most if not all of them.

Xivo · 07-Nov-2010, 18:29
