Just got a chance to watch this BBC miniseries from last year, and holy crap! That has to be one of the more intense zombie stories ever! Closest I can compare it to was the Dawn of the Dead remake from a few years ago, as it follows the same rules, with fast, feral undead, and lots of shakycam footage during attacks. In fact, its practically be a companion piece. "Meanwhile over in England..."
It was also one of the goriest, something sorely lacking in the last few zombie films I've seen. I think thats what surprised me the most. You don't expect to see crushed skulls and torn out throats on was a tv show for gosh sakes. Not that I'm complaining. People should be bitten and torn apart like loaves of fresh bread at an Italian banquet in zombie stories.
Really surprised it hasn't come out on dvd here in the US. Fans would eat it up. (NPI)
