Reanimated Podcast

Happy Founder's Day! Let's all celebrate Governor Milton and Sebastian and their glorious leadership of the Commonwealth. You'd think with a name like Common Wealth, they might be a little less cringey with their monocle-wearing elitism, but hey at least they have gladiatorial combat.

It's starting to sink in that these are the final eight episodes of The Walking Dead prime show. This installment brings Hornsby some fresh, terrible wounds, which is nice. Josh Hamilton continues to delight and surprise us with his turn as a fiendish all around bad guy. We also talk about how vampires and witches seem to be having a bit of a moment and that's cool.

Reanimated goes hunting for some uber vamps with Day Shift on Netflix. This was a fun movie, with great action and world building, but left us wishing there was more character development for some of the supporting cast. Would watch more Dave Franco and Jamie Foxx buddy cop movies. 

We close out Tales of the Walking Dead with two more genre-bending episodes this week on the show - Davon and La Doña which take us into some Tales from the Crypt territory. Ms. Conrad spills the beans about the PPP easter egg prime show crossover and the amount of story hooks for the main show or another anthology really just keeps piling up. Have a listen!

Samantha Morton delivers once again as Alpha in "Dee" on Tales, but a few things don't add up in "Amy/Dr Everett" - Reanimated has questions.

After being so crestfallen over Fear the Walking Dead (we don't like quitting things) and not loving The World Beyond, it's been a huge rush to start getting into Tales of the Walking Dead! Also props to COVID-Conrad for pushing through for the episode. 

We check out Malnazidos a.k.a. Valley of the Dead this week on the podcast for some Spanish Civil War zombies. This is a fun movie - lots of jokes, lots of zombies, what more can you ask for? Perhaps a scruffy-looking nerfherder to lead the ensemble named Jan (pronounced Han)? This movie has that too! 

I know! I know! I said we'd have a fresh episode this week. Well COVID done made a liar outta me. HOWEVER, I can't lie when I say that it's been fun to trot these ole samples out of storage. This week it's Day of the Dead from 1985, so salute the Bub in your life, crack open a cold one with the helo crew and pull up a chair to the pig guts buffet.

Also, check out Peter Clines' Ex-Heroes

As we navigate some busy times for day jobs, here's another gem from the library - enjoy 1978's Dawn of the Dead!

We pulled another golden oldy out of the archives this week with an encore presentation of Reanimated's original episode on 28 Days Later.
