by

Summary

  • AMC’s The Walking Dead had a significant impact on the zombie genre with a realistic portrayal of zombies.
  • Fan imagines how zombies might look in 2025, incorporating modern fashion trends.
  • The Walking Dead spin-off, Dead City, promises more undead chaos in Manhattan with a new villain.

2010 saw the arrival of AMC’s hit series, The Walking Dead, catching its audience off guard with its gripping tale of survival in a world overrun by zombies. Despite George A. Romero’s pioneering work in the zombie genre with films like Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead, this series, developed by Frank Darabont, stood out by making its zombies feel terrifyingly real and threatening, rather than mindless creatures driven solely by a hunger for human brains.

Over the course of its eleven seasons, “The Walking Dead” has demonstrated not only how zombies can adapt to their surroundings, although some adaptations aren’t always successful, but also how they deteriorate with time. Many reanimated corpses are depicted crawling about in tatters due to harsh weather and scavengers eating away most of their internal organs, offering a captivating perspective on how people once perceived ‘walkers’. Despite the fact that nearly all “Walking Dead” fans would shudder at the thought of living through a real-life post-apocalyptic scenario filled with zombies, one fan found it intriguing to imagine what such a situation might look like in present times.

Walking Dead Fan Highlights What Zombies Would Look Like in 2025

On the subreddit dedicated to AMC’s “The Walking Dead,” a fan humorously reimagines what walkers might look like if a zombie apocalypse occurred today. User ChrisRocksLeftBigToe uses images from the show and updates them with contemporary clothing, hairstyles, and makeup trends. Although this creation is intended to be playful and amusing, it may inadvertently reflect some accurate aspects of how walkers could appear in our modern world. In one image, a zombie sports lip fillers, another dons a ‘Make America Great Again’ cap, while a gangster zombie flaunts a silver gun necklace and fashionable tracksuit. The most memorable and amusing picture, however, is that of a zombie carrying the Stanley Cup.

In the realm of the undead, there’s been a significant update regarding “The Walking Dead.” Its creator has finally clarified a long-standing question about whether zombies can swim or not. On the spin-off front, fans eagerly await another dose of zombie turmoil set in Manhattan when season two of “The Walking Dead: Dead City” premieres this year. Hopefully, we’ll learn the exact air date soon.
