5. Tops. The idea is great in my opinion. A "new" approach. Relatively. Combining zombie virus and vampires, personally I really do like it. The idea of giving them a leader who controls them, sees all via the eyes of his pawns (the master), whose death will defeat all pawns? The cliché of clichés. We'll see how it turns out, but if it will as 'hope' in the series...well, let's just hope it won't come down to that.
Admit it. Every movie contains bad ideas, plot-holes, problems, unreasonable things, whatever, I don't think there is one exception. Lord of The Rings, Star Wars, HP, Inception, The Godfather...Every one of them. Yet I dare to say it started out pretty good.
But seriously, I know it is a drama but it is getting more and more ridiculous.
First, people in general still don't know there's a 'virus' out there turning people into blood-sucking psychos. Can they not see the corpses? No internet, weak signal, sure, but did they lose the ability to speak as well? Can they not get in a car and leave? At least now people started looting. About time...
But how about having sex in an apartment (or what), with OPEN doors, at NIGHT, while they know there ARE creeps out there? Well, why the hell not!
But that is not enough, now the kid, against his father's convincing, decides to go out and buy CIGARETTES for the crazy old lady. Seriously? He knows there is danger out there, he was told NOT to open that door, NOT to go out whatever happens, and he is a kid who can NOT buy cigarettes to begin with! Seriously?!?
Drama is one thing. This? This isn't drama, this is stupidity. This is bad script. Flooding us with mindless "dramatic" events such as a kid going out alone, with such an idiotic reasoning such as buying cigarettes, unthinkable! They didn't even bother making it more reasonable.
This is getting more and more ridiculous and annoying by the minute. Conflict is necessary but constant conflict between pretty much everyone is not! How about them following up a plan without whining and arguing for once? JUST for once! How about not coming up with idiotic morals while people are reanimated by worms with the sole purpose to kill? Emphasis on *Reanimated*. They are already dead, chopping their heads of won't make them any...deader. Or what.
Or how about them simply avoiding the most obvious dangers? Like: "Look, here's a pitch dark room and I can hear something making weird noises, similar to those dozens of things we just met earlier, how about going in? Alone? One by one?"
They are practically begging to get killed.
If it goes on like this, the 5 stars will turn into 4, then 3, and so on.
This is no way of making a series, but this is the best way of ruining it.
And I swear, I fear... I fear they'll come up with some utterly stupid idea again, like using "mom" (don't remember her name) against this...group of survivors, Or worse, turning her back and/or turning it into a love triangle...
*sigh*
I really hope my fear is misplaced.
