This is "The Walking Dead" episodes and what they have been rated, as we can see from this current screenshot, the reviews and ratings that they have received are very good. This is why we have chosen to look into it as it is both very successful and is based off of the sub-genre of zombies. We thought that it would be a good idea to base our film off zombies because of the fact that them type of films have been very successful in the past, so we thought that we would carry on with this and try to make our film as successful as the rest of them out there. Also, there is not that many popular zombies films/series out there so it may be in our favour to do this as it is something different so the current sub-genres out there.
HERE ARE SOME REVIEWS ABOUT "THE WALKING DEAD"
"FIRST HEARD ABOUT THIS SHOW A FEW WEEKS BACK. SINCE I LOVE ZOMBIE-MOVIES I HAD TO SEE WHAT THIS WAS ALL ABOUT. AT FIRST GLIMPSE I WAS A LITTLE SKEPTIC, BUT THE TRAILER CONVINCED ME OTHERWISE.
I JUST WATCHED THE FIRST EPISODE AND IT MATCHES ALL MY EXPECTATIONS AND MORE! I LOVED MOVIES LIKE DAWN OF THE DEAD(NEW VERSION), 28 DAYS/WEEKS LATER, I AM LEGEND ETC. THIS SERIES IS JUST LIKE THAT, IT'S ZOMBIES/MONSTERS BUT STILL VERY REALISTIC.
THE WAY THE PLOT IS PRESENTED IS VERY ENTERTAINING, BUT NOT VERY SURPRISING. THE ACTING IS TOP-NOTCH AND VERY BELIEVABLE. A DRAWBACK WITH TV-SERIES IS THAT THE EFFECTS ARE USUALLY QUITE TACKY. HOWEVER, HERE IT'S QUITE THE OPPOSITE. EVERYTHING LOOKS VERY REALISTIC AND HONESTLY QUITE DISGUSTING, IN A GOOD WAY."
"FIRST, CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, THIS IS NOT USUALLY A VERY BIG TRAIT IN THE ZOMBIE GENRE. IF YOU ONLY WATCHED 3 EPISODES, THIS IS A BIG PART OF WHAT YOU WATCHED. THEY TAKE THE TIME TO GIVE YOU A SLIGHT BACKGROUND OF THE CHARACTERS, A CHANCE FOR YOU TO GET TO KNOW THEM. FOR THOSE OF US THAT ARE BIG FANS OF THE ZOMBIE GENRE IT GAVE US A CHANCE TO THINK "WHO WOULD I BE?" IN THIS SITUATION.
SECOND, THE STORY DOESN'T FOLLOW A STRAIGHT LINE. THIS WAS A POINT OF CONTENTION IN THE OTHER REVIEW. I PERSONALLY LIKE THE MULTIPLE STORY LINES. IT KEEPS THINGS INTERESTING AND KEEPS IT FROM BECOMING A BORING SHOW WHERE I CAN FORESEE HOW EVERYTHING IS GOING TO TURN OUT. AND BEFORE ANYONE SAYS IT…YES I KNOW THIS IS BASED OFF A GRAPHIC NOVEL. I HAVEN'T READ IT AND WILL REFRAIN FROM READING IT FOR A WHILE.
THIRD, THE ZOMBIES LOOK AND ACT PRETTY BAD ASS. THE MAKE UP IS DONE GREAT, NOT A BUNCH OF CGI WHICH IS SO COMMON IN TODAY'S WORLD. SO ANYWAY…IF YOU AREN'T A FAN OF THE ZOMBIE GENRE TO BEGIN WITH THEN YEAH, YOU PROBABLY AREN'T GOING TO GET WHY SO MANY OF US LOVE THE SHOW. HOWEVER, I THINK MOST FANS OF THE GENRE WILL LOVE THIS SHOW.
SO IN CLOSING, FOR THOSE OF US WHO LOVE THE GENRE, IT'S A WEEKLY DOSE OF ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE."
