Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Tacticalin An absolute waste of money
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
gogogo-13398 It's sad. This show would have been great. It would have continued to be great, is what I mean. I guess it didn't have enough Hollywood bullshit. It had the viewer-ship, just it wasn't like some other shows. It was incomparable and I guess for some, bullshit love triangles and sex as the main plot line is a must. I watched all the episodes in one sitting. Was disappointed when there weren't more. I had hoped Amazon would pick it up but *sigh*. Same fate as Firefly... (any fans out there? no? ) I'm hoping that somehow, this show will be saved but I know not to hold my breath; the acting, the story...it would have been so good. :(
Sourwolfnewtmas I didn't see any trailers or advertising on TV or online so it was a surprise as I was flicking through channels. At first I thought here we go another zombie apocalypse, more generic characters, predictable plot. I was really pleasantly surprised.The premise is a world where zombies can be cured by a daily injection and are known as PDS or partially deceased syndrome sufferers. They still retain their undead appearance but think and feel like they did before they died.The PDS suffers have to face severe prejudice from the living which in a way is portrayed as a kind of racism. They also must come to terms with how they died and the fact they killed people in their untreated state.There is romance but not in a sickly kind of way which is new. It doesn't focus on this as the plot is so complex and well written, as are the characters. All of the characters are relatable. Even the villains have clear motive to explain their actions.The only downside would be the fact I personally find it difficult to watch any zombie films or series after seeing another side to this world but overall I would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes horror series or series with good LGBT and mental health representation.
AngelicSodaCan If you are looking for high levels of carnage and violence with little backstory or character appreciation and development, this show is not for you. Similarly, you will not enjoy this show if you find certain forms of love distasteful.If you want characters who you are going to love and hate, who are a little messed up and dealing with it, who can choose to change or stay stubbornly steadfast. If you want some meaning with your undead, something raw and real and fantastic - this is the show for you.This is not a Walking Dead, end-of-days tale of an infectious epidemic that finds hope only in the form of a bullet and a fate worse than death at a bite."In The Flesh" is strife and horror at the hands of those closest to you. It's finding safety in people you just met and spite in the town you once called home. It's where the most monstrous are the ones who've been Living all along.
thalassa-90 This TV show is not like most of the movies featuring zombies. In the flesh is set after the apocalypse, where zombies can be treated and they can be a part of the society. The show focuses on the psychical damages of the treated zombies, how families deal with that they've got back their dead family members, the fear of the unknown and the discrimination. Sometimes it's very touching and makes you think about our society. The treated zombies behave just like other people, so don't expect too many brain eating walkers, like in walking dead. This show is not violent that way. But it shows us, that a zombie show doesn't have to be full of blood and brains.
