[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 10 points 2 years ago (2 children) Nah, it was fine for people that didn't read the book. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Iapar@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) Didn't read the books and can't remember much of the movie but one thing. The way the zombies moved as a fluid. That was the best depiction of horde behavior I have seen. The thought that they climb over obstacles by climbing over each other was brilliant and scary. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Jessvj93@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago The zombie ant hills are burned into my mind as well. So fucked up and terrifying. permalink fedilink source parent [–] dustyData@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) I only read the book afterwards. Leaving the theater I thought, “Wow, what a shit zombie movie, what's with the zombie tower. Anyways I want ice cream.” After reading the book I thought, “Wow, this makes the movie seem even worse than I thought, adapting this would've been way better. They didn't even follow the same in-universe rules!” permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Psychodelic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) I thought it was a fantastic zombie movie! I just need to make sure to not read the book now. lol permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 2 points 2 years ago Nah, the book is great, definitely one the best zombie fictions out there. It even spawned a pretty great fan fiction that addressed one of the hanging plot threads. I didn't buy everything from it but it's best to just consider them as separate properties and judge them on their own merits. permalink fedilink source parent
