Just started watching "The Walking Dead" (leaked first ep) - doesn't air until next week. Based upon the Walking Dead graphic novels, which are fucking awesome

Supposedly it's supposed to get pretty gory, and if it stays true to the comic it definitely will. Not really a spoiler alert cause it's in the preview, but the first 5 minutes of the pilot he shoots a little girl zombie in the head, blood gushing from forehead and everything.

I expect great things from this show.

EDIT: It's pretty amazing how accurate everything is thus far. Also, to those of you who aren't familiar with it, this storyline is much more different from most zombie storylines, because the the horror doesn't come from the zombies (they're slow zombies and not really that scary) -- it comes from the completely fucked up things that humanity is driven to during the zombie apocalypse.

When reading the comic, I was not once horrified by the zombies, but there were times I was so into the characters that I had to put the GN down for a while.

	Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing. ― Terence McKenna Last edited by Mr. Blonde; 10-22-2010 at 06:49 AM.
