A few years back, during the height of popularity for “The Walking Dead”, I took a tour of on-location sites for the show.
One of the guides, who had been an extra, talked about this very phenomenon. The first three or four rows of a horde had the full-blow prosthetics. The next dozen or so rows had less involved make-up, and by the time you got to the back, they just had dirty clothes and were instructed to keep their heads tilted forward where you couldn’t see their face.
@DrWorm this whole thread is driving me crazy because there’s a name for the ones at the front… Like they are the showcase ones or special ones… But not those words.
I agree
I disagree
I’m indifferent
I was hoping for zombie hordes. Not hordes of bad actors. False advertising. It bothers me and it should.
“Humans are the REAL monsters.” - always. Because it is cheaper.
Zombies are hoarders?
Huh. What do they hoard? Torn, disintegrating, bloodstained, decomposing rags that once resembled clothes?
I want a “zombies decluttering” mega-blockbuster
@f00l “does this slack-jawed shambler spark joy?”
@UncleVinny
Obviously, I suppose.
The more maggot-infested, the more joy.
