The Walking Dead By Andrew Lincoln To Download You copy please click here www.5x.co.nz/downloads/walkingdead.php The most anticipated television event of the year returns for a second season. AMC's The Walking Dead is "breathtaking in its small moments" (Wall Street Journal) and "creepy from the first frame" (Variety). The end of civilization was just the beginning for Rick Grimes and the other survivors. As the fight to stay alive intensifies and personal rivalries continue to fuel, the group struggles to hold on to their humanity in a time where slim chances are all that is left. Based on Robert Kirkman's hugely successful and popular comic book series, AMC's original series, The Walking Dead is an epic, edge-of-your-seat drama where personal struggles are magnified against a backdrop of moment-to-moment crisis. A survivalist story at its core, the series explores how the living are changed by the overwhelming realization that those who survive can be far more dangerous than the mindless walkers roaming the earth. They themselves have become the walking dead.

ďƒ&#x;------------------------------------------------------ďƒ Let me preface this by saying that I have NEVER been interested in zombie films or movies. The closest experience I have to zombies is Resident Evil. My boyfriend also hates zombies, and said they are the dumbest thing ever. He said I would have to watch this show on my own. So, I watched one episode and was hooked. As you probably know, the show is set in a postapocalyptic United States, and the country is being overrun by zombies. Rick Grimes, a sheriff, was in a coma when the apocalypse came. He somehow managed to wake up and get out of the hospital, and was on his merry way to find his wife and son. Rick ends up finding a lot more than just his wife and son. There are places to go, people to save, mysteries to solve, and affairs and treachery to sort out. I decided to take the gamble and convince my boyfriend to watch the first episode with me, and he was hooked as well! And that is coming from a guy who has basically hated anything zombie he has ever seen (really, it was like pulling teeth to get him to give it a chance - and now he's dying for the next season). And yes, I do see some very strong similarities to Lost for many reasons. Here are a few: *a group of people who know nothing about each other live together and try to survive. It brings up a lot of themes of loyalty, friendship, and the nature of people. *the show is VERY slow-paced. I watched seasons 1 and 2 back-to-back so this wasn't really an issue for me, but I know it drove a lot of people crazy. Lost was also extremely slowpaced, with plenty of cliffhangers. *it's so character-focused, that sometimes you forget about the other things around them. Oh yeah, there are zombies in this? I forgot for a second. This show, like Lost, is truly about the characters. How they feel, act, and the methods they take to survive. The characters act like real people and I find a lot of empathy for some of them. There are a couple of annoying ones, but there are still plenty zombies left in future seasons :) *Rick Grimes = Jack Shephard. They both start out as the model citizens (a sheriff and doctor) who are always trying to do what's "right and noble." They take great pride in honor


and try to be the team leader. However, they are both highly flawed and begin to unravel and turn more primitive and scared over time. *no one is safe! Prepare for unfortunate and heart-breaking deaths. Overall, I am very, very impressed with this show so far. In this day and age, it is difficult to create something zombie without making it look completely goofy. Yet somehow, the show is still scary, suspenseful, and has many layers to it. I would say that if you liked Lost, you will probably love The Walking Dead. Also, you do NOT need to like zombies at all to like this show. Like I said, zombies often seem like the backdrop.
