The Walking Dead debuts on Blu-ray with a deliberately rough and series-accurate 1080p Blu-ray transfer. Though modern convention calls for television series to be shot on HD video, The Walking Dead was captured primarily on 16mm film, giving the series a gritty, unkempt façade that lends to it a unique texture in support of the series' dark themes, grisly violence, and general sense of despair. Though the image occasionally goes soft and never appears razor-sharp, Anchor Bay's transfer nevertheless sports high-quality details as evident on police uniforms and patches, building textures, natural greenery, and all of the series' realistic gore. Colors favor a faded, worn appearance, but green foliage; a bright sports car; or other, flashier hues are handled with ease and displayed with a fairly natural tone. Blacks are deep, nighttime shots are absorbing and true, and crush is minimal. Though a touch of banding and a few bouts of blockiness are evident from time to time, the transfer captures the depressed look of the original elements quite well. It's a good look that's handled with much accuracy on Blu-ray.Vollständige Rezension lesen
A moving, intriguing drama about a zombie apocolypse set in/around Atlanta, GA. Some of the acting is not up to par, but others like Jeffrey DeMunn are definitely at the top of their game. The drama overall has some faults but all are forgiven as the story overcomes any actor's shortcomings. The zombies have never looked better. Greg Nicotero does the make-up effects which are A+. A very noble interpretation of the comic. Look for season 2 to be the actual "first" season. Season one seems like a 6 hour preview for the real season coming up in October, 2011. Bottom line, if you're a horror fan, you'll be in love with this series. If you're not a horror fan, you'll find it an engaging series in the caliber of Sons of Anarchy, Madmen, Justified, etc.
Season 1 a must watch and don't worry every episode is better than the last.

I was so excited when AMC first started advertising for a new "horror" series called "The Walking Dead". The advertisements looked good, but based on past zombie movies, I was skeptical. ALAS, my skepticism turned to PURE JOY from the very First Episode!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!! CAN'T WAIT FOR THE SECOND SEASON SCHEDULED TO BE RELEASED IN FALL 2011!
If you love the comics your going to love the TV show. From the very start the Walking Dead tells a intense and strongly character driven story. The extra feature are loaded on this Blu-ray set and has a good commentary.
Same awesomeness as on AMC but in auto 5.1. Sadly video quality isn't what one would be used to seeing on Blu-ray. It may have a film grain turned on dileberatly, but it would be nice to be able to turn it off. In some scenes its almost unbareable.
Wonderful first season of Walking Dead.
