We’re kicking off our October Horror Series by diving into one of the genre’s most enduring sub-genres: Zombies!

Before the zombie mayhem, we share some quick spoiler-free thoughts on The Long Walk, the new Stephen King adaptation in theaters now (0:07)— and yes, it more than lives up to the hype.

First, we go back to the gore-filled roots with George A. Romero’s Day of the Dead (Peacock) (08:34)— a classic that still drips atmosphere (and guts). 

Then, we jump into the future with Danny Boyle’s long-awaited return in 28 Years Later (Netflix), the modern reinvention that has us terrified all over again (56:36).

We tease next week’s episode at the end if you listen to those things (01:58:34).

In the meantime, let us know your thoughts about 28 Years Later + Day of the Dead and don't forget to like & subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts!
