Was one of the cars in the railroad garage where Joe and Daryl’s group holes up is in fact the same car that kidnapped Beth?
Did anyone else notice Bub in the tunnel? Bub was the zombie that they were trying to domesticate in George Romero’s “Dawn of the Dead.” The “Bub” walker was even wearing its collar. In fact, that whole scene was pretty reminiscent of the Romero classic … which was one of the first films ever worked on by Emmy-winning special effects guru Greg Nicotero, who directed this week’s episode.
With Bub showing up in tonight’s episode, does this mean that Kirkman’s Walking Dead Universe and Romero’s Living Dead Universe are one in the same or was this just Nicortero’s homage to one of the classics?
Based on one of the most successful and popular comic books of all time, written by Robert Kirkman, AMC’s The Walking Dead captures the ongoing human drama following a zombie apocalypse. The series follows a group of survivors, led by police officer Rick Grimes, played by Andrew Lincoln (Love Actually, Teachers, Strike Back), who are traveling in search of a safe and secure home. However, instead of the zombies, it is the living who remain that truly become the walking dead. Jon Bernthal (The Pacific, The Ghost Writer) plays Shane Walsh, Rick’s sheriff’s department partner before the apocalypse, and Sarah Wayne Callies (Prison Break), is Rick’s wife, Lori Grimes. Additional cast include: Laurie Holden, Steven Yeun, Norman Reedus, Jeffrey DeMunn, Chandler Riggs, Iron E. Singleton and Melissa McBride. Guest stars include: Lauren Cohan, Scott Wilson and Pruitt Taylor Vince.
