The Walking Dead's "It Is About Survival" Movie Clip is Here

The Walking Dead Poster

The latest movie clip on AMC's "The Walking Dead" series is called "It Is About Survival." Frank Darabont, Robert Kirkman and others try to convince viewers that this television series is not about the zombies, but about the characters. However, this zombie watcher dares you to have a zombie themed series without zombies and for you to still be successful. Zombies create the tension, darken the atmosphere, create conflict and horror, while the characters develop in this undead environment, in response to these elements. This counter-argument is included not to be pretentious, but to play devil's advocate to the clip's central point. Have a look at the four minute clip inside and decide if the series is about the characters, or the zombies, or something else. Lots of new footage is included as well.
