Reanimated Podcast

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. 

Because even RSS feeds have limits, here's a rare chance to hear a couple of baby podcasters recording their first episode. Enjoy our coverage of the one that brought modern zombies to life back in 1968, Night of the Living Dead!

We sat down and hammered out the rest of the season of Resident Evil on the show this week. Still mystified by the low reviews, absolutely astounded by the quality of the performance logged by Lance Reddick. Hot damn! However, it's got its problems -- at least one snoozer episode and the resolution of the 2022 storyline leaves too much untold. However, it's a fun show. Check it out.

It was back to New Racoon City High School this week to watch Billie's fairly swift descent into crazy, while future Jade barely stays ahead of Umbrella by jumping from a series of frying pans into a series of fires. Resident Evil continues to be wholly entertaining - come hear our impressions of episodes The Devil You Know and The Light. We also break down some of the zombie news out of San Diego...

Hey gang, we’re taking a look at the latest entry in the Resident Evil media landscape this week on the podcast. And despite the landslide of bad reviews out there, we’re digging it, you guys. Come check it out with us!

Day of the Dead aired last fall on SyFy and then seemingly vanished. The homage to Romero feels very baked in and was a decent watch, though it struggles to rise to the level of a Black Summer.

This week, Reanimated chalks up another movie that adds to the margin of error in the zombie genre. We wish Unhuman was better, but sadly, it was worse.

The second Wyrmwood movie serves up more zombie road warriors on the show this week. Plus we dish about some exciting new trailers and announcements!

We went full Aussie on the podcast with a look at Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead, a high-octane, zombocalyptic vision that came about through some crowdfunding and the same sort of skill and passion that brought us The Battery in years past.

A slight detour into the MCU leaves some Reanimators woefully lost in the lore of the MultiMarvelVerse, making one host consider sticking to the rivers and the streams that you’re used to. However, a good time was had by all!

In this episode, Reanimated heads to Uruguay for some Virus 32 which serves up some rage zombie-action

We closed out the second third of TWD’s final season with some high dramatic stakes, one or two groan-inducing moments of cliche but overall just left impressed by the caliber of the talent on this cast. Josh Hamilton’s Lance Hornsby is horrible and it will be fun to see where this goes.

Things are getting complicated with the Commonwealth. Acts are being committed that will prove difficult to undo, lines are being drawn and Negan is apparently going to be a dad. Huh? Also, Michael Biehn is there! and Jason Butler Harner does a fantastic turn as Toby Carlson.

We're continuing to churn through the the Walking Dead prime's final season, this time starting off with a Cudlitz directed "Rogue Elements." We still have questions about the Commonwealth but these episodes are gripping and entertaining.

A slight switch of gears this week as we leave Fear the Walking Dead Behind and head back to Virgeorgia for a dose of the prime show. It’s night and day in terms of quality of storytelling.

In a recap hail mary, we covered the remaining four episodes of Fear the Walking Dead season 7A this week on the podcast. The show feels like it's in a nearly unrecoverable flat spin, as plots and characters increasingly feel cartoonish, the stakes feel ever smaller despite outlandish plot devices that are presumably to create the opposite effect.

With Cindy Hawkins, we got to go back inside the hatch from Lost with a musical montage portraying how well June and Sr are getting along, but Teddy's ghosts come back to haunt them. Breathe with Me wraps up the Emile storyline once again and finally addresses the "Where's Wendell?" issue that the writers didn't really worry about for 16 episodes. Listen along for more impressions!

Well, we made it to the end of All of Us Are Dead and, while it wasn't a perfect show, it was pretty good. Listen along for our recap of the final three epsiodes.

Some members of team Reanimated are turning into Gwi-nam stans and we’re not sure if the show meant for that to happen? All of Us Are Dead series continues!

We followed survivors as they navigated stairwells, relationships and incrementally moved the story forward in these two episodes of All of Us Are Dead, this week. Check it out!

We covered a lot of apocalyptic ground in these two episodes, but there's so much more of this show to go! We laugh with Daesu and we shake our tiny fists at Na Yeon - all that and more in this episode, come along!

Kyle's back to help us unpack all of the teen angst and zombie hamsters in the pilot of the latest South Korean zombie project on Netflix. Between commentary on bullying, classism, whiny teens and preoccupied adults, there's a ton here, oh plus ZOMBIES! So settle down with a bucket of Cheong-san Chicken as we go back to school.
