The Walking Dead

[ex-member Raikey]

I love zombie films and there are a load online if you have a look around, some are so badly made they are great...if that makes sense

Prime example here, 'Last Man On Earth' Vincent Price. Its public domain so legal to download

i think this is the early film version of I Am Legend,...more accurate than the Will Smith version too,..

the book actually described them as Vampires tho and not Zombies,...

i LOVE zombie movies,...

the early Romero stuff (where the makeup is just blue paint,...lol!) are the best.

I'm a bit late getting into this one, just saw episode 1 last night and am very impressed.
The bit at the beginning of the first episode where he says "little girl? Don't be afraid, I'm a cop..." she turns out to be a flesh hungry zombie!!
Obviously cliche and unsurprising to fans of the genre, but always a good way to keep the audience intrigued.

You mean its no real!!!!!!!!!!!

I was down the Price of Wales road in Norwich Saturday night they seemed real to me then or was it chucking out time??????????????

All good practice for the coming Zompocalypse

Just dont forget your box of vinyl records to take down any zombies.

When I was fit and drinking many of those who attempted to keep up with my consumption of alcohol turned into zombies overnight

I just finished watching it on the confuser - by far the best Zombie show in town :AR15firin :yikes:

 

[Trunks]

hehe, watching it now & got the series v+'d

Series 2 of this has just started on FX. Did anyone see it?

More importantly did anyone spot the Bear Grylls Parang Machete? I clocked it on numerous occasions

Clocked that one right away. All the orangeyness on it stood out a mile. It seemed to work excellently in dispatching zombies too.

 

[Geordie9]

I noticed that as well, a nice big roll of Gerber sharpies
The 1st season was great and so far it looks as if this will be another good season.

I spotted that machete...

I'm downloading eposode 2 of season 2 right now. My computer is so slow it is literally the walking dead download. Sometime tonight it will be ready too late for getting a good nights sleep.

The other night in the jungle the forest was filled with armadillos after dark. If you start thinking zombies hearing them shuffle literally 360 degrees around camp that BG machete starts looking worth the asking price. Nothing imitates a zombie walk as well as a hungry armadillo.

Watched E01S02 last week, really good. The camps out regarding Terra Nova.

One of my favourites

It is earlier, then came The Omega Man

I Am Legend and about the same time a real crapper of a film

Another film you could almost slot in from the 50's is

Fantastic show, loved season 1 and season 2 is lookin good as well. One of the few zombie/horror movies/series that I actually like. And yes I spotted the Gerber stuff too, they must have some sort of deal or contract with them, I saw the head of what I thought was a fiskars/gerber hatchet and thought 'surely not, come on,it can't be!' then it turns out to be a massive tool roll full of gerber merchandise! lol Not only gerber but BG too!! I wonder how Mr. Grylls is coping with the zombie apocalypse? lol.
Great thread
