In 2010, the TV series “The Walking Dead” was already released on tv, suddenly to become cult and gathering a massive audience of fans. The earliest season of The Walkers was directed by Frank Darabont, who had already got his mitts horror movies, renowned for his highly successful screen adaptations of Stephen King’s novels. Despite the fact that Darabont subsequently left the project, “The Walking Dead” always stayed afloat, changing showrunners, but without losing the corporation atmosphere, even if each season was distinguished by its own special style, or, more correctly, individuality. The pilot episode of the earliest season attracted over 5 million viewers in the screens, and also the season itself received quite a warm welcome and excellent reviews, including from professional critics. The plot in the series revolves around the story plot of former law enforcement officer Rick Grimes, who awakens inside a hospital in the course of a zombie apocalypse and efforts to find his family and survive in the concept of the revived dead. Over time, Rick makes new friends and enemies, moving on the northeastern from the United States and shooting crowds of hungry walking dead.

At the initial viewing, the series leaves the sense of a task that sets a brand new bar for creating zombie slashers, partially bypassing even typically the most popular film franchise in their genre “Resident Evil”, not surprisingly, not in the products effects, playing with the quality of elaboration with the universe. “The Walking Dead” bribes already by the fact that they are not the next shooter, with a ridiculous script and characters written “with their knees.” Thus, the “Walking Dead” managed, as we say, “shoot” for the very same reason as the “Bet on Thrones” released 1 year later. In the time the discharge from the last bright fantasy of the quality of “The Lord with the Rings” clearly there was practically no, and the series, conveniently occupying an empty niche, became a cult. So can be zombie horror – yes, they shine in quantity, but not in quality; few films of your genre are able to pleasantly surprise, for a lot of them stereotyped and mediocrity are really characteristic, while “Walking” manufactured modestly, but taste. The project doesn’t require the stars of the very first magnitude, and a lot of actors, to the contrary, became popular thanks to their roles in The Walking Dead. Your capacity to purchase, apparently, doesn’t allow resorting to expensive effects, plot moves are uncomplicated, and morality is normally completely banal – value all your family members and don’t substitute. It seems apparent that there isn’t anything special to hook the viewer with, but all this is forgiven and makes sense with interest, due to the mesmerizing atmosphere of your post-apocalypse, captivating from the very first minutes of viewing.

This rating of your project “18+” speaks for itself – blood, meat, the style of dismembered bodies and broken skulls are abundant here; hardly any episode is finished without murders by survivors or walkers, but this is simply not why the fans love the series. Although at first, The Walking Dead is simply crimson jackpot, but should you dig deeper, apparently the ominous zombie apocalypse is simply the scenery by which the key story develops. The story plot of survivors fighting to preserve the most crucial human values, for instance love, friendship, family. Situation of how difficult it is to remain humane and human in inhuman conditions. And, apparently, it turned out these ideas that inspired last year’s South Korean thriller Train to Busan, which managed to see a hackneyed topic from a new angle and tell a touching story of your zombie horror, adding a little soulfulness. Therefore the series itself, together with the bloodshed abundance, is no adaptation of “Left 4 Dead”, built on the key of “run and shoot”, where such a concept will interest only young adults and, for starters, adolescents. Here, a fantastic part of the screen time is devoted to the disclosure of characters along with reincarnations, the connection with shod and non-shod and conflicts; the dramatic content of “The Walking Dead” occupies one of the main places inside the script, while doing so celebrate it clear to us that there’s little romance in survival in post-apocalypse conditions, that is a severe test of strength, where there is no place for your weak, where even one of several living – almost like among wolves.

However, there’s a second side to the medal, behind which, obviously, lies one of the biggest weaknesses of the series. Sometimes the bias towards drama towards the detriment with the drive and tense atmosphere helps to make the series look bland, dragging on only every so often, which are the plot progress seem indecently slow. Another specific feature of “Walkers” is, not immediately apparent, having less freshness of the planet, linked to the monotony on the setting as well as monotony in the scenery. As well as the unhurried advancement of events, this leads some disappointment, since the series, flashing brightly from the outset and setting a robust pace, ceases to ensure that is stays, rarely returning to actually stormy action and vigorous narration. But what definitely is not going to let you receive bored may be the many colorful and deep characters.
