If you’re not familiar with the comic book work of Robert Kirkman, you really should be. Frank Darabont (THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, THE GREEN MILE, THE MIST) saw the genius in Kirkman’s hit comic book series THE WALKING DEAD, and is doing an admirable job of bringing the property to AMC. We’ve talked about the show previously a few times, and there’s been several videos posted online to tease what fans can expect, but today AMC gives folks a lengthy look at the making of the series… and what a great look it is. I love seeing the passion that’s going into this. Check out the video below, and tell us your thoughts on the show. Is primetime TV ready for zombies?
THE WALKING DEAD premieres October 31, 2010 – that’s right… Halloween
