Zombies. . .Apocalypse Sweethearts. . .
"Monsters, kid's stuff, dumb, only weird'os would watch zombie movies,"
I beg your pardon??? Take a closer look!
There are deep rivers running through the land of "apocalypse sweethearts."
George Romero (recently passed away) was one of the most influential pioneer zombie filmmakers. He gave these "apocalypse sweethearts" their body movements, their look, style and basic awesomeness. His films are timeless. After all these years, he is now getting his place on the "Hollywood Star of Fame Walk."
"Night of the Living Dead" was the first film to establish him as a filmmaker. Some of his films are (1968) "Night of the Living Dead"; (1978) "Dawn of the Dead"; (1985) "Day of the Dead"; (2005) "Land of the Dead"
1. "We call them walkers. How many walkers have you killed?"
2. "How many people have you killed?"
3. ..........and why?
Every new person they meet along the pathway has to answer the three questions.
In the TV series "The Walking Dead", zombies are called walkers.
This amazing cast "gives it their all" leading us on a suspenseful journey.
Presently "The Walking Dead" - Season 10 comes on AMC every Sunday followed by "Talking Dead" with Chris Hardwick.
Also, "Fear the Walking Dead" are showing past episodes of the series.
"The World Beyond" is a new series with Rick Grimes former leader of "The Walking Dead" gang of survivors. This is set to premier in April.

Nicotero worked with George Romero and is an expert on zombie make-up and style. He gives great attention to detail when designing these walkers and gives each one their individual personality even though he designs thousands of them. They look like you can reach out and touch them - - your neighbors, family and friends who have turned into walkers. Greg is still creating walkers and directing episodes on "The Walking Dead."

Z-nation . . .
is filled with creativity. It is like the "what-if?" version of the apocalypse. The writing flows smoothly in this road trip adventure. They call them Z's in this series. The group travels the country with one goal in mind "a cure for the zombie virus." The talented cast keeps adapting to ever changing environments and there is never a dull moment!
UPDATE- The show is over. But you can still enjoy it on Netflix and other streaming channels.

"Z-nation" cast pulls off drama and humor and all in-between! They are aggressive warriors who are always thinking and coming up with strategies.
"Fear the Walking Dead" begins in L.A. and is a drama about the apocalypse as it develops in L.A. This impressive series immediately captures the "off-beat" underworld of LA while maintaining the magical, elusive atmosphere of the "city of angels."
UPDATE - WE are nearing the end of this season. Comes on Sundays on AMC channel. Just a few more episodes.
The same producers as "The Walking Dead" only instead of the setting being in Georgia and the spooky woods of this region, it takes place in the city of L.A. This series is a drama for adults and movie buffs will appreciate the lighting, set design, acting, writing and other hard work put into these episodes.
It is interesting to watch these new apocalypse survivors learn a little at a time the rules of the apocalypse (which the "Walking Dead" cast already) Stressful to watch them endanger themselves! It makes you want to yell out "Hey, watch out! Don't do that!" For fun watch the beginning of the series and enjoy the eerie LA setting. Then watch the episodes that lead up to the present! Right now on Sling
