The Globe Even As Knew They Have Disappeared But Keeping Humanity Is Our Choice
In 2010, the TV series "The Walking Dead" was released on television, suddenly becoming a cult and gathering a massive audience of fans. The first season of The Walkers was directed by Frank Darabont, who had already got his mitts on 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 this company atmosphere, even when each season was distinguished by a special style, or, more correctly, individuality. The pilot episode of the very first season attracted greater than 5 million viewers with the screens, plus the season itself received a very warm welcome and excellent reviews, including from professional critics. The plot in the series requires situation of former police Rick Grimes, who awakens inside a hospital dealing with a zombie apocalypse and efforts to find his family and survive in the joy of the revived dead. After a while, Rick makes new friends and enemies, moving on the east coast of your United States and shooting crowds of hungry walking dead.
At the first viewing, the series leaves the impression of a task that sets a brand-new bar for creating zombie slashers, partially bypassing even the most used film franchise rolling around in its genre "Resident Evil", certainly, not in the products special effects, in the condition of elaboration of the universe. "The Walking Dead" bribes already because they may not be the next shooter, by using a ridiculous script and characters written "on the knees." Thus, the "Walking Dead" managed, as we say, "shoot" for the similar reason as the "Bet on Thrones" released each year later. During the time of the release with the last bright fantasy of the condition of "The Lord with the Rings" there seemed to be practically no, along with the series, conveniently occupying a clear chair niche, became a cult. So might be zombie horror - yes, they shine in quantity, but not in quality; few films of the genre can pleasantly surprise, for most stereotyped and mediocrity are extremely characteristic, while "Walking" is created modestly, but taste. The project does not involve the heavens of the earliest magnitude, and several actors, on the other hand, came into common use as a consequence of their roles in The Walking Dead. The budget, apparently, does not allow resorting to expensive effects, plot moves are uncomplicated, and morality is sometimes completely banal - value all your family members and don't substitute. It seems apparent that there's nothing special to hook the viewer with, but all this is forgiven and repays with interest, due to the mesmerizing atmosphere with the post-apocalypse, captivating from the very first minutes of viewing.
The age rating from the project "18+" speaks by itself - blood, meat, the appearance of dismembered bodies and broken skulls are abundant here; hardly any episode is done without murders by survivors or walkers, but this may not be why the fans love the series. Although when you're beginning, The Walking Dead is simply a crimson jackpot, but should you dig deeper, apparently the ominous zombie apocalypse is simply the scenery against which the chief story develops. The storyline of survivors fighting to preserve the most crucial human values, including love, friendship, family. The storyplot of methods difficult it should be to remain humane and human in inhuman conditions. And, apparently, it had been these ideas that inspired last year's South Korean thriller Train to Busan, which managed to observe a hackneyed topic from another angle and tell a touching story of the zombie horror, adding a touch of soulfulness. So the series itself, with the bloodshed abundance, is not an adaptation of "Left 4 Dead", built on the key of "run and shoot", where such a notion will interest only younger people and, to start with, adolescents. Here, a superb the main screen time is about the disclosure of characters and reincarnations, the bond with shod and non-shod and conflicts; the dramatic content of "The Walking Dead" occupies one of the leading places inside script, as well this makes it clear to us that there are little romance in survival in post-apocalypse conditions, that is a severe test of strength, where there is no place for that weak, where even among the list of living - almost like among wolves.
However, there's a second side for this medal, behind which, obviously, lies most significant weaknesses on the series. Sometimes the bias towards drama towards detriment on the drive and tense atmosphere helps to make the series look bland, dragging on only every so often, helping to make the plot progress seem indecently slow. Another specific feature of "Walkers" is, not immediately apparent, a defieicency of freshness of the planet, of this particular monotony on the setting plus the monotony of your scenery. Coupled with the unhurried development of events, this will cause some disappointment, ever since the series, flashing brightly at first and setting a powerful pace, ceases to make it, rarely returning to actually stormy action and vigorous narration. But what definitely is not going to let you will get bored is the many colorful and deep characters.
