The Globe Once We Knew It s Disappeared But Keeping Humanity Is Our Choice
In 2010, the TV series "The Walking Dead" was introduced on tv, suddenly to become a cult and gathering a big audience of fans. The primary season of The Walkers was directed by Frank Darabont, who had already got his face to face horror movies, renowned for his highly successful screen adaptations of Stephen King's novels. Although Darabont subsequently left the project, "The Walking Dead" always stayed afloat, changing showrunners, but without losing the corporation atmosphere, regardless of whether each season was distinguished by its own special style, or, more correctly, individuality. The pilot episode of the 1st season attracted more than 5 million viewers from your screens, and also the season itself received a really warm welcome and ideal reviews, including from professional critics. The plot on the series requires the storyplot of former law enforcement officer Rick Grimes, who wakes up inside of a hospital in the middle of a zombie apocalypse and tries to find his family and survive in the field of the revived dead. After some time, Rick makes new friends and enemies, moving down the east coast with the United States and shooting crowds of hungry walking dead.
At the earliest viewing, the series leaves the sense of a project that sets a fresh bar for creating zombie slashers, partially bypassing even typically the most popular film franchise in their genre "Resident Evil", of course, not in human eye lighting tricks, in the quality of elaboration of your universe. "The Walking Dead" bribes already by the fact that they are not merely another shooter, by using a ridiculous script and characters written "on the knees." Thus, the "Walking Dead" managed, as they say, "shoot" for the similar reason for the reason that "Bet on Thrones" released per year later. At the time of the discharge with the last bright fantasy of the condition of "The Lord of your Rings" clearly there was practically no, and also the series, conveniently occupying a vacant niche, was a cult. So are zombie horror - yes, they shine in quantity, yet not in quality; few films of this genre can pleasantly surprise, for most stereotyped and mediocrity are incredibly characteristic, while "Walking" is made modestly, but with taste. The project doesn't require the celebrities of the initial magnitude, and many actors, on the contrary, came into common use on account of their roles in The Walking Dead. Your ability to buy, apparently, would not allow turning to expensive lighting tricks, plot moves are uncomplicated, and morality is normally completely banal - value all your family and substitute. Apparantly there isn't anything special to hook the viewer with, but all it is forgiven and settles with interest, because of the mesmerizing atmosphere on the post-apocalypse, captivating from the very first minutes of viewing.
This rating on the project "18+" speaks by itself - blood, meat, the style of dismembered bodies and broken skulls are abundant here; very little episode is complete without murders by survivors or walkers, but this may not be why the fans love the series. Although at first, The Walking Dead is just a crimson jackpot, but for those who dig deeper, evidently the ominous zombie apocalypse is simply the scenery by which the key story develops. The storyline of survivors fighting to preserve the main human values, for instance love, friendship, family. The storyline of how difficult it should be 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 consider a hackneyed topic from a new angle and tell a touching story on the zombie horror, adding a touch of soulfulness. To ensure 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 notion will interest only the younger generation and, to start with, adolescents. Here, a fantastic portion of the screen time is about the disclosure of characters along with their reincarnations, the link with regards to and conflicts; the dramatic content of "The Walking Dead" occupies one of the leading places inside script, at the same time it makes it clear to us that you have little romance in survival in post-apocalypse conditions, this is the severe test of strength, where there isn't a place for your weak, where even one of the living - just as if among wolves.
However, there exists a second side to the medal, behind which, obviously, lies one of the largest weaknesses from the series. Sometimes the bias towards drama towards detriment of the drive and tense atmosphere is the series look bland, dragging on only every now and then, which makes the plot progress seem indecently slow. Another specific feature of "Walkers" is, not immediately apparent, a defieicency of freshness of the surroundings, associated with the monotony on the setting as well as the monotony on the scenery. In conjunction with the unhurried continuing development of events, most of us some disappointment, since series, flashing brightly in the beginning and setting a powerful pace, ceases to ensure that is stays, rarely returning to honestly stormy action and vigorous narration. But what definitely won't let you receive bored is the many colorful and deep characters.
