The Walking Dead: Who is Mays?

New DVD release
This article contains spoilers for The Walking Dead season 10 episode 19. The impact was immediate, even before you could see his face. Aaron, missing after a long night of drinking and boar meat. Gabriel, hung over and searching for his friend. And there, at the end of a long row in a warehouse, backlit by the sun, stands an imposing figure wearing a hood and cradling the unmistakable profile of a rifle. Even before you see the man’s scarred face, he’s already established himself as someone to take seriously.  The man, played by the incredible Robert Patrick (of Terminator…

The Walking Dead Season 10 Episode 19 Review: One More

New DVD release, , ,
This The Walking Dead review contains spoilers. The Walking Dead Season 10 Episode 19 Walking from point to point on the map, looking for desperately needed food and supplies, all Aaron (Ross Marquand) and Gabriel (Seth Gilliam) have done is kill zombies and wear the leather off their shoes. At this point, The Walking Dead is also the walking living, as the two are without car, bicycle, cart, or horse. Every spot on the map marked by Maggie has been a dud, from the freshly burned-down house to the boarded-up mini-mart. Frustration is beginning to set in for Aaron, who…

How The Walking Dead’s Dog Is Keeping Carl’s Memory Alive

New DVD release, , ,
The final six episodes of The Walking Dead season 10 have so far taken the shape of “day in the life” stories about fan-favorite characters. “Home Sweet Home” followed Maggie as she deals with the consequences of leaving Hilltop so many years ago as well as what it means to be back in Alexandria. And last Sunday’s “Find Me” followed suit, this time focusing on Daryl and the years he spent in exile while searching for Rick in the woods. The episode not only gives us a deeper look at what Daryl’s life was like out in the wilderness, separated…

The Walking Dead Season 10 Episode 18 Review: Find Me

New DVD release, , ,
This The Walking Dead review contains spoilers. The Walking Dead Season 10 Episode 18 As far as episodes of The Walking Dead go, “Home Sweet Home” will not be considered one of the brighter lights of the vastly improved season 10, thought it was very far from the nadir of the series. This show has been better and it has also been much worse. Overall, The Walking Dead is trending up under the direction of show runner Angela Kang, thanks to a focus on improved writing over twists, spectacle, and cliffhangers on a show that has never needed them. Generally,…

The Walking Dead: Who is Leah?

New DVD release
This article contains spoilers for The Walking Dead season 10 episode 18. Grief is all the rage on television right now. Though series like WandaVision and Snowpiercer went into production before the coronavirus pandemic gripped the globe, they arrived during a time in which we all had a lot of trauma to process. Over on The Walking Dead, however, grappling with such concepts has been the norm all along. The show’s first episode dealt with an apocalyptic event that wiped out the majority of the population and since then its characters have known the names of the dead better than…

The Walking Dead: The “Long Runway” to the Daryl and Carol Spinoff

New DVD release, , , ,
Each of The Walking Dead season 10C’s six episodes will center around a different cast of central characters. As we saw last week, the premiere “Home Sweet Home” focused on Maggie, her new group, and the Reapers that are menacing them. Next week’s “One More” will focus on Gabriel and Aaron. Two other episodes, “Splinter” and “Here’s Negan” will focus on the railyard crew (Eugene, Yumiko, Ezekiel, and Princess) and Negan, respectively. There are, however, two characters in this six-episode run who will receive multiple centric installments. And as one would expect, it’s none other than Daryl Dixon (Norman Reedus)…

The Walking Dead: Daryl’s Dog Origin Revealed in Exclusive Clip

New DVD release, , , ,
The Walking Dead season 10 continues to dig into the past with “Find Me,” which takes a look back at the years Daryl spent in exile from Alexandria searching for Rick Grimes after the bridge explosion in season 9 that marked Andrew Lincoln’s exit from the show. We all know Rick isn’t dead, but Daryl doesn’t so he spends the next six years searching for any sign of the Alexandrian leader’s remains. At the very least so that Daryl can put the man he calls “his brother” to rest. Daryl revisits this unseen period in his life while out hunting…

Chaos Walking Review: Run Away from This Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley Movie

New DVD release, , , , , ,
It was more than three and a half years ago when cameras began rolling on Chaos Walking, the sci-fi adventure movie starring Tom Holland (Spider-Man: No Way Home) and Daisy Ridley (Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker). It’s finally seeing the light of day this week. Although production wrapped in late 2017, this film ended up destined to run the same gauntlet that most movies helmed by director Doug Liman do: reshoots, re-edits and rethinking, all in service of cobbling together something that its studio, Lionsgate this time, could call “releasable.” In the end, however, the behind-the-scenes story of the…

The Walking Dead: What Mercer Means for the Show

New DVD release, ,
This article contains potential spoilers for THE WALKING DEAD Season 11. If one needed a firm indication that AMC’s The Walking Dead is on a quick collision course with its climax, the announced casting of fan-favorite character Mercer should certainly suffice. Michael James Shaw has landed the role, which he will field on the upcoming eleventh and final season of the franchise-spawning series. While there have been major divergences from Robert Kirkman’s comic source material, it does seem that Mercer will be as crucial to the approaching endgame of the series as he was to the comic. The tweeted official…

Tom Holland Calls Long Delayed Chaos Walking a ‘Labor Of Love’

New DVD release, , , , ,
Tom Holland has two new movies out this month: the first, Cherry, arrived in theaters this past Friday (Feb. 26) ahead of a March 12 premiere on Apple TV+. It’s the first movie directed by Anthony and Joe Russo since Avengers: Endgame and has gotten a fair amount of attention and press. The second, Chaos Walking, will show up in theaters this coming Friday (March 5) and is an entirely different story altogether, Chaos Walking has gotten plenty of press–but all for the wrong reasons. Based on the novel The Knife of Letting Go by Patrick Ness, the first in…

The Walking Dead: Who Are The Reapers?

New DVD release,
This article contains spoilers for The Walking Dead season 10 episode 17. Midway through the first hour of The Walking Dead’s six-episode season 10C, Maggie’s group comes across the smoked-out wreckage of their latest living space, with two smouldering bodies outside. Immediately, Maggie, Cole, and the masked Elijah all know who is responsible for the devastation.  “Shit, it’s them. They found us,” Cole says.  The fear in Cole’s voice and his certainty in who sabotaged his crew is definitely a rough sign for the survivors of The Walking Dead. They just made it through a protracted war with the Whisperers…

The Walking Dead Season 10 Episode 17 Review: Home Sweet Home

New DVD release, , , ,
This The Walking Dead review contains spoilers. The Walking Dead Season 10 Episode 17 The Walking Dead is not a show that can be described as “free from issues.” Since the very first season, the series has made a habit of introducing a group, only for that group to self-destruct, disappear, or die, either on screen in the case of the prisoners from season three’s West Georgia Correctional Facility, or off-screen in the case of the eponymous Vatos from season one’s “Vatos.” A group shows up, and typically, they die in short order. Maggie’s group of hardened survivor pals is…

Bringing The Walking Dead Season 10 Back During Covid-19 Meant Big Changes

New DVD release, , , , , ,
There’s never been a season of The Walking Dead quite like this one. With six additional episodes added on as an epilogue to its original finale, season 10 will go down as the longest season in the show’s history. This, of course, wasn’t the plan, but when the Covid-19 pandemic forced productions to grind to a halt last March, AMC had to figure out how to shoot its popular zombie drama safely, while also considering what kind of material it could realistically film when crowded hordes of walkers in tight spaces are no longer an option. The first step was…

The Walking Dead: Negan Prepares Lucille for Her Comeback in New Trailer

New DVD release, , , , ,
The Walking Dead has confirmed that Negan’s wife Lucille will be making her debut soon. In the upcoming six episodes that make up “season 10C”, the sixth episode will feature Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s real life wife, actress Hilarie Burton, portraying Negan’s long lost spouse. While getting to see Lucille is nice, it also begs the question: what about the other Lucille? Negan’s iconic choice of weapon is a simple wooden baseball bat wrapped with barbed wire that he named after his wife. The barbed-bat helped complete the physically imposing persona that eventually installed him as a ruthless leader of The…

Will Fear the Walking Dead Season 6 Finally Give Us the Morgan Moment We’ve Been Waiting For?

New DVD release, , , , ,
Fear the Walking Dead finally returns on April 11, which means we might finally get some closure on some of the biggest loose ends from the first half of season 6, including just how Morgan plans to get his people out of Virginia’s clutches. So far the season has brought some radical changes to Morgan’s character — an altruistic leader left for dead who is transformed into an ax brandishing hunter looking for revenge. Morgan has often turned to violence during moments of distress — in this case, he let his people down and they’re now all suffering under Virginia’s…

The Walking Dead Season 10 Will Change Lucille’s Storyline from the Comics

New DVD release, , , , ,
Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s Negan has been a consequential figure on AMC’s The Walking Dead ever since his highly-anticipated debut in 2016’s Season 6 finale; an introduction that cemented him as the definitive big bad of the show before turning a brutal-but-iconic moment from Robert Kirkman’s comic book series source material into a cliffhanger stunt that proved controversial in all the wrong ways. However, while the character has since experienced a compelling villain-to-antihero arc similar to the comic, the latest trailer for Season 10’s bonus episodes teases a slight divergence to one of the earliest segments in said arc: Negan’s late…

The Walking Dead: World Beyond Season Finale Ending Explained

New DVD release, , , , , ,
This The Walking Dead: World Beyond feature contains spoilers. With The Walking Dead: World Beyond only getting a two season run, there’s a certain expected economy of storytelling. There’s not an opportunity to drag anything out past a few episodes, so big reveals tend to come faster and character arcs tend to bend more quickly than they might on other programs with more hours to fill and more opportunity for long-form stories. As such, there’s a lot of stuff that changed during the two-episode finale event to drill down into. Here is what happens in the conclusion of The Walking…

The Walking Dead: World Beyond Season Finale Review

New DVD release, , , , ,
This The Walking Dead: World Beyond review contains spoilers. The Walking Dead: World Beyond Episodes 9 and 10 Huck (Annet Mahendru) is a woman with a mission, and it’s not to make sure everyone gets to the Civic Republic Militia research facility safely. From the very opening of The Walking Dead: World Beyond‘s ninth episode, “The Deepest Cut,” as Huck stares into the darkness while everyone sleeps, it’s clear she’s facing a choice between the people that she has come to know and love as friends in Felix and the kids, and her loyalty to the CRM, her mother, and…

The Walking Dead: World Beyond Episode 8 Review – The Sky Is a Graveyard

New DVD release, , , , ,
This The Walking Dead: World Beyond review contains spoilers. The Walking Dead: World Beyond Episode 8 The implications of Silas killing his father have followed the character around during his journey on The Walking Dead: World Beyond. Throughout his arc in the first season, that hint of violence, potential or actualized, has been the thing Hal Cumpston has projected most strongly. Not threatening, per se—Silas has never looked like a direct threat to anyone, shrinking back rather than using his size to menace—but fear. Silas is afraid of himself in a way the other characters are not, and that hints…

Fear the Walking Dead Season 6 Episode 7 Review: Damage From the Inside

New DVD release, , , , ,
This Fear the Walking Dead review contains spoilers.  Fear the Walking Dead Season 6 Episode 7 The last time I struggled to write a review for Fear the Walking Dead was the season 4 finale, “…I Lose Myself.” I wrote at the time, “Several false starts and a couple thousand words later, I realized I wasn’t writing a review for a lackluster episode. Rather, I was writing a eulogy for a show I once loved.” Unfortunately, history seems to be repeating itself. And this is a difficult thing to admit, since season 6 showed so much promise. If this season could be…
