Here's something that annoys me about interesting stuff: as soon as it gets juicy, it's all over. This truth I apply across the board to relationships, independent publishing, acne, everything. But especially to zombie movies. So many questions are still left unanswered in this, the greatest of genres.
For instance: What happens? Do zombies just eventually starve? 28 DAYS LATER would have us believe so. But Romero's zombies keep on going until they've learnt how to use tools and facilitate minority uprisings. And will the humans eventually rebuild their lives? In the malls and housing estates they have colonised? Or will their own murderous ids take over to the point that they're spearing Joe Schmoe for not putting the toilet seat down? Robert Kirkman answers these questions and more in his genius comic THE WALKING DEAD.
At the outset, he says, "Good zombie movies show us how messed up we are ...THE WALKING DEAD will be the zombie movie that never ends." The only thing I can tell you about these comics without spoiling anything is that there are many amputations. Perhaps too many. But, as they say, better to live one-legged than die undead.
