The Walking Dead and its impact on our culture

The Walking Dead has really changed the modern view of zombies to a dominant culture. I love contrasting different zombie media, including World War Z, The Zombie Survival Guide, Resident Evil, Night of the Living Dead, and more. I own The Walking Dead video games and I love them. I love talking about them with my friends and analyzing each scene for fun. I love zombies so much that I’ve even eaten at Zombie Burger in Des Mines Iowa many times! It’s a completely zombie-themed restaurant with Walking Dead-themed murals, burgers and food with the Zombie name, and life-size zombie figures.

The Walking Dead stars Rick Grimes, (played by Andrew Lincoln) a Georgia Sheriff who wakes up in a hospital after being shot in a showdown on duty as a Sheriff. He returns home and discovers that his son and his wife are missing. Your child realizes that he is in an apocalyptic world where zombies or the undead stagger and feed on human brains and flesh. He goes to Atlanta to find them. He is nearly killed by a horde of zombies and hides in an abandoned military tank. He is later rescued by Glenn, a survivor who takes Rick to a camp on the outskirts of town. There he meets his wife and son, along with his best friend and partner Shane. This sets up Ricks’ first meeting with the group that Rick will eventually lead through the graphic novel and show. He must defend himself against hordes of zombies, deal with internal politics, human disease, and also the politics of external bands of survivors, including a group led by the governor, a place called Exodus, and Alexandria, a place where everything seems so quiet or is it. ?
