Today series The walking dead (“the walking Dead”) Is more like a show about incredibly disabled and cruel people than about a zombie apocalypse. But even the most disgusting moments, for example, when the dead man ate the remains of Glenn's face in the seventh season, hint that the main enemies here are still zombies. From the very beginning, the horror series from the American channel AMC builds its plot around predatory, half-dead enemies and the dangers they pose for living people. Over the course of seven seasons, we see thousands of wandering zombies on the screen. They are bloody and disgusting, but sometimes very sad.
But, despite the fact that zombies usually run, well, more precisely, they walk in crowds, some were able to separate from the hordes. Sometimes they are significant because of their utterly disgusting appearance. In other cases, we remember them for their important role in moving the story forward. Below is a list of the 10 best walking dead we've seen so far. Also take a look at 5 Zombie Apocalypse Survival Cars.
1. Little zombie girl
“the walking Dead”From the very beginning make it clear that the series will not be boring when the main character Rick Grimes in the first minutes comes face to face with a zombie child. Of course, since the girl was the first to be dead, she turned out to be imperfect. We already know that, for example, a zombie will not waste time picking up a favorite toy before eating.
But her disfigured mouth and hungry growl are more than strained and intended more for novice viewers. Being the first doesn't mean being the best, but it's totally unforgettable to see an unkempt zombie girl in bunny slippers looking for someone else's blood.
2. Hannah
For many fans “Walking Dead"A particularly hideous corpse that Rick faced in the pilot" Dnor who changed the world”, Remained unnamed. But thanks to short spin-off episodes, we know her name is Hannah and she had her own life before the zombie apocalypse.
Even without a detailed backstory (and no torso), this dead woman is unforgettable. Rick, not yet accustomed to the zombie apocalypse, saw her crawling across the lawn in his hometown. The fact that he returned to her and ended her suffering says a lot about him as a character.
Unlike many other zombies, Hannah's agony reveals, oddly enough, something human. In addition, it shows how distantly the walking dead can resemble a living being and still move.
3. Zombies in the well
We don't often think about supplies in a zombie apocalypse world. For example, how would you maintain a fresh water source? What happens if this source is infected by a bloated zombie? In the second episode “Walking Dead"In the series"Rose cherokee“Glenn, Maggie, Dale and the rest of the team were forced to deal with this problem when they found zombies in the farm well.
He was vile on his own, with lumpy flesh, puffy eyes, and claw-like hands. But the plan for “pulling the fat guy out of the wellsa ”ended in failure as the team left out the flexibility of the zombie flesh. When they took out the dead man, his body fell in two, and his lower half fell back into the water. The fans of the series said in unison: "Ugh!”, And the zombie from the well has firmly staked out its status as one of the vilest dead on the show.
4. Shane Walsh
We saw a bunch of characters that we loved (or loved to hate) who later became walking corpses. Shane was not the first - that honor belongs to the deceased Sophia. But his death and subsequent revival in the series “Best Angels”Definitely shocked fans to the core because it confirmed the long-standing theory that everyone turns into zombies even if they weren't bitten.
For the fans of the show following Rick's band in season two, Shane's death was a welcome redress. He rose from the dead shortly after a violent and tragic fight with Rick. Therefore, seeing Shane approaching his former opponent with an absent gaze is more than creepy. Given the important role that Walsh played in the first two seasons, one can understand why his death and transformation into a zombie were so significant.
5. Zombie guards
If you're watching a long series about zombies, you need to be shaken up sometimes so you don't get bored. After two seasons “Walking Dead”With aimlessly wandering corpses, the creators decided to add a little creativity. In the series “Seeds”After Rick and his team cleansed the prison of the dead, they stumbled upon the reviving prison guards. These zombies, packed in special uniforms, were especially difficult to destroy because of their armor. They looked more like characters from a post-apocalyptic war movie.
The zombie guards were funny because of their surprise. They remind us that during the apocalypse, people not only hid in their homes, but did their job, some are still trying to do it. In addition, it was especially brilliant when Maggie learned how to pierce the helmets of zombies and shot them in the brains from the side of the neck.
6. The Dead Man Who Ate Laurie
Laurie Grimes was definitely not the most popular character in the universe. "Walking Dead”. Therefore, when she died in childbirth, many fans of the series breathed a sigh of relief. Despite her unpopularity, it was hard to see Rick's grief upon learning of his wife's death. In the series “Just tell me“He follows the trail of Lori's blood and finds a fat zombie, which gives her death a particularly cruel and gloomy shade.
This shows that the characters of the series are nothing more than food for the dead. And the zombie, who probably ate Lori, is charming in its own way, because it demonstrates a dead person whom you rarely see - well-fed, albeit temporarily, after an endless search for flesh and blood.
7. Mike and Terry
When we first saw Michonne, she was clothed in dark and leading two unarmed zombies on a leash. She amazed with her mystery and fantastic survival skills. Michonne is good with a sword and uses zombies to disguise his scent from other corpses.
Subsequently, we learn that they are not just bodyguards for a woman, Michonne is associated with two zombies with partnerships and friendships. The fact that she is able to hold them back with her word shows how unusual she is.
Although we know little about the two tethered dead, they nevertheless became part of the zombie mythology of the series and help one of the most charismatic heroes along the way.
8. Merle Dixon
All that was known about Merle Dixon at first was that he was an asshole. During the series, this was only confirmed, in addition, we learn about his relationship with the Governor. By the time Merle met his fate, he had improved a little.
So when Daryl is in “This woeful life”Sees him already zombified and eating a corpse, it looks even more tragic. Their former difficult relationship fades into the background, and the younger Dixon has to simultaneously overcome his bitterness over the loss of his brother and save his life.
Merle was armed with a metal prosthesis for an arm, making the second task difficult for Daryl and reminiscent of who his older brother was before he became a zombie. After all, Merle may not have been a great guy, but he fulfilled his mission in "The Walking Dead"... He died in the same way as he lived all his life - fighting to the last.
9. Zombies in the basement
As time went on and the series developed, the zombies became more grotesque as they decayed more and more over time. We saw unforgettable examples of this in the episode “Strangers”.Gabriel's father, Bob, and other survivors were looking for groceries at a nearby store. It turned out to be flooded with water and teeming with zombies, which were there for an unknown amount.
As a result, their flesh, bloated, green and decayed, hung from their bones, and their faces became extremely disfigured. In general, these zombies were orders of magnitude more disgusting than ordinary ones. But, by the way, and more fun.
10. Dead man with a rocket in his face
If you want to survive in the world of the zombie apocalypse, you need funds to fight enemies. Grimes and his team figured this out, as you can see from the impressive assassination techniques they have used over seven seasons.
Perhaps one of the most memorable and rewarding techniques Rick has employed in Season 5, episode "Distance"... When the zombies began to attack him and his friends, they used the weapon that was at hand - a rocket launcher.
Rick shot the rapidly approaching dead man in the eye, and his face lit up like fireworks. As the zombie collapsed, Grimes remembered that there were still tons of other zombies he had to kill. Therefore, our fearless, albeit sometimes imperfect, leader enjoys the trust of his team, thanks to creativity.
