THE WALKING DEAD
An extended version of the review of the new horror phenomenon published Persinsala
zombies are back, other than vampires, zombies are the new trend, now you will see that the bookshelves will be filled with zombies eBooks and away the zombies and zombie-movie-comedy and then there are the diaries with the zombies, the phones in the form of zombies, the zombies for teens who want a boy, that emo themselves up as zombies, Swedes make a zombie movie with the adolescent melancholy and blue is the new red: Take and eat, these are zombies, offered in sacrifice for you.
The phenomenon of the future, in case someone was closed in a Transylvanian castle in the last 6 months if he had not noticed, are the zombies.
No time to waste paper recycle all that dirty ink vampire appeared in bookstores, not even the possibility of revising the miliocentesima time to reply in a random order on Italy Vampire Diaries 1 and here they take out the zombies here.
And all drooling like zombies chasing zombies, Danny Boyle, Zack Snyder, Edgar Wright had already said a few years ago, but then they were all behind Achilles, Balian, Arthur and Alexander, all children of that Massimo Decimo Meridio Robinho in the recent Hood (AC Milan striker) declared that the final death.
But the living dead, for the name they bear, never die if shot in the head and so check here again ten years with the intention of conquering the world, led by George A. Romero possibly more tired of Dario Argento, able to put together a series of horrible movies that now even the name of the director of Zombie manages to save her father from bankruptcy.
course, Romero and Romero can not be touched, so the national Darion and a number of other directors who prefer not to mention by name as Burton and Stone that despite criticism of obscenity as Alice In Wonderland and Wall Street: money does not never sleeps, they find themselves surrounded by staunch defenders of their own (bad) job.
criticism goes on for compact blocks undemocratic and the sea of \u200b\u200bthe Internet, with the large group of doped-force case and exclamation points to make the big voice, contributes ideas that are pushing more and more impressive, convinced, emaciated with the passage of time.
The Walking Dead as a transposition of a comic book about zombies? The first episode of The Walking Dead is good. The Walking Dead is good! The Walking Dead raises the fashion zombies! Zombie! ZOMBIE ZOMBIE ZOMBIE!
And so we find ourselves talking about the phenomenon Walking Dead (which after a while The 'tired), capable of overthrowing the attention of a large slice of public hungry for good horror (tell horror stories of non-human-vampire horny-teen-lovers) on a TV series produced and written by Frank Darabont, one of the few authors capable of bringing the stories of Stephen King on the screen without creating a mess hallucinating (to name just one: Pet Semetary) in 2007 with The Mist has a shot of horror America's most underrated and most successful in recent years.
The director there, the balloon of success is already printed, the format chic miniseries in six episodes was found, and zombies, as the title, are running: the criticism is ready to launch the new phenomenon of the year .
bite almost everyone: Walking Dead is spectacular, fantastic, never seen, well done, great, nice, fresh air and a series synonym preposterous that perhaps not even contemplate Zanichelli.
But why?
How come no one realizes that a product looks like Walking Dead "banalotto" and poorly scripted, with little stereotyped characters, to say that in 240 minutes can barely make that in a classic film zombiesco happens in an hour and a half ?
The answer, of course, and much abused, although not yet widespread (since very few allow themselves to criticize), are mainly five:
1. The TV series is from a comic (cult!) then the characters are fantastically "comics" and move into a wonderful scene from "ordinary history" (synonymous with comics in the thesaurus A praise to his word ... thinkers of the nineteenth century);
2. The screenplay was written by Frank Darabont with the help of the original cartoonist Robert Kirkman, enjoyed a fantastic filmmaker, writer and beloved comic horror (or not) the other;
3. Special effects make-up there, just to name one, Greg Nicotero, and particularly expert in the field of zombies having worked the last 4 (bad) film by Romero as well as a host of other horror films;
4 . The miniseries tells the zombie apocalypse of the world and is the first to do so;
5. I read the billboard in town, though a crazy blonde lady with the sunglasses still OBEY wrote to tell me that there was not The Walking Dead.
Each of these responses below, in the minds of every fan of the whole of the Walking Dead, "so it's great strength."
So nobody seems to realize that moving the story of a cartoon on TV requires a much more complex than simply moved out of characters and stories from the paper to the cathode ray tube (which by the way is gone) with a few juicy aggiuntina here and there: the comic is a medium of communication, television and another two-dimensional character just disappear into the depths of the comic strip of the television screen, just like the tissue Kate Moss in an episode of Family Guy.
flatness to stand out as the superhero solve-it-all (similar in some ways the protagonist of another horrible TV series ended badly named Jericho), the violent boor who obeys only his animal instincts (and the even more evil brother within the limits of the joke), the wise old monkey-friendly, and Korean: happy gang that lacks only the black-Yo brother ... (not true, there is also him.)
are saved by the nomination and then arrive in the final, Shane Walsh, deputy friend of the protagonist and Andrew, whose names are not mentioned in the case being the only people able to evolve (just like a Pokemon) during the whole affair. To return to
talking about the fans of the TV series even more convinced of the "cartoonists" seem to fans of the various Darabont and Kirkman who think just like the staunch defenders of Burton and Stone, fans of special effects that would like to propose a movie filled with no history explosion of rotting bodies and those who see something original zombie apocalypse in 2010, which would be a little 'Christmas in South Africa how to find a welcome change.
In any case, the high tide carries all Internet users on the same power and those who try to swim against buried is outraged by comments that sometimes are transformed into categorical "Goat, goat, goat" worthy of the best living TV nobody sees it but everyone knows that ... (Amy's Magic!).
Obviously, every self-respecting zombofilo realizes incipit cloning is clearly after 28 days but someone whispers "could not be otherwise," and then the cry of "could not be otherwise" no one notices the absurdity of a man linked to survival in coma, left for a month on a bed, attached to machinery not functioning for lack of electricity, even without a catheter is not necessary to transform the room, I will forgive the refinement, into a pit of urine.
And how does the same person just out of the coma to reach his house and transformed in the space of two days (with the help del suo costume da supereroe con la stelletta) in un leader carismatico che non chiede nemmeno una volta cosa diavolo sia successo per trasformare il mondo in una landa desolata abitata da esseri ciondolanti e puzzolenti?
Ma soprattutto (e qui chi non ha ancora visto la quarta puntata è invitato a non leggere), perché mai dei bruti messicani decidono di tenere aperto un ospizio in mezzo alla città e hanno la finezza psicologica di un cattivo nella serie animata de L’uomo Tigre (i buoni che fingono di essere duri per salvarsi da un mondo duro, cose che nemmeno Ken Shiro avrebbe accettato)?
Ogni pellicola horror o di fantascienza che si rispetti ha le sue incongruenze, nessuno lo può negare, ma è anche vero che solitamente are due to the limited time in which you want to tell a story while Walking Dead, having plenty of, he chose to squander the hard way: with unnecessary steps in which absolutely nothing happens (the third) and others that look like a cross between a video game and a mashup of Zombie Dawn of the Dead (the second, with Kirkman found cloying of the walk "impuzzati" zombie, which lacked only hang around as they walked in Shaun of the Dead).
The Walking Dead, ultimately, offers an old story, with characters drawn largely from a Steven Seagal film, which runs about 6 episodes quite an unequal amount of action and quality as the juice is concentrated in the first promising Days Gone Bye and in the last two (too open) episodes: it can be concluded a season to forget as many as 3 people abandoning their fate and just found one and a half in depth at all to an explosion?
aside the careful direction of many assigned to Darabont, who worked really just the first episode leaving the remaining work of mediocre film and video clips of TV series, the technical realization of the series is definitely good, but it could surprise a decade ago, after the explosion of gems like Lost, CSI, True Blood and so on and so forth, without regard to the intermediate level of the actors.
One last sour note deals with the meaning of the show in general: can a TV series called The Walking Dead, which stars should be real zombies, not to frighten or even impress? There are
disembowelment of horses and people, zombie rotten and decayed that drag without the lower body, little girls zombies killed with a gun (nothing to do with a scene like that of District 13: Assault on death ) and so much blood, Walking Dead, but not scary, it focuses on the relationships among the living, but did not come close to the thickness of a masterpiece, The Night of the Living Dead able to scare and make people think. Will they be able
our heroes, in a previously-announced and hyped second season, or at least scare the route taken will be that of zombie ridiculously intelligent indescribable obscenity as in The Day of the Dead Romero's teacher?
In 2011 the difficult decision, sure to try the next scene of pure terror lost key in slow motion on the roof of a building and not very hopeful regarding the disease Romero is going to infect the world: I already see the girl post- emo to declare her love for Edward Cullen Zombie, can not remember which part of the body lost a first rotting Tarantino in Planet Terror.
