Remember: The Walking Dead Premiere!

The new Walking Dead TV series premieres on AMC on Sunday/Halloween at 9/10C. AMC has a bunch of stuff up on their website in preparation for the show's debut.

I'm excited for this one. A serialized zombie survival TV show, with high production values? All over it.

The show is based off of the Robert Kirkman comic of the same name. I've flipped through the comic in the past--black and white art, very R-rated--and found it a bit too bleak/harsh for my tastes. And I'm not the "sensitive" type! I think/hope the AMC series will stray from that a bit. But it still is not going to be "family fare," that's for sure.

From all the preview art and video clips, it looks like they've nailed this thing head on.

Oh shoot--I just read that this is being directed by the same guy that did Shawshank Redemption. This is going to be good. Really good.
