A loud, high-pitched sound echoes through the streets of Oslo. Car alarms start going off everywhere. A citywide blackout begins. An elderly man, draped over his grandson’s grave, begins to hear the sound of muffled knocks coming from under the ground. “Grandpa is coming,” he says repeatedly. He grabs a shovel and begins to dig. […]

In this edition of The Silver Lining, we’ll be discussing Burr Steers’ underrated adaptation, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. She may not have been a best-selling author when she was alive, but later critics would recognize Jane Austen as one of the most important writers in all of western fiction. That’s why it’s no surprise […]

Resident Evil may be best known for re-popularizing zombies in media, but hardcore fans know that the franchise is chock-full of other monsters that have been terrifying gamers and moviegoers alike during the franchise’s quarter-century existence.

In this edition of The Silver Lining, we’ll be covering Tod Williams’ 2016 Stephen King adaptation, Cell. Stephen King is no stranger to the apocalypse. From the fallen worlds of his The Dark Tower series to his viral opus The Stand (which remains one of my all-time favorite literary works), the writer has an undeniable […]

Sartre famously wrote that “hell is other people”, and while it can be easy to sympathize with that statement, I think there’s more than one kind of hell. Despite a certain melancholic beauty in solitude, the fear of being alone is both primal and common enough that most people have nightmares about it at one […]

No one could have predicted the runaway success of AMC’s The Walking Dead, but the secret to the show’s popularity might just be how it appeals to an increasingly wide audience. This is mostly because the story’s conflicts aren’t limited to the undead menace itself, with episodes exploring everything from relationship dramas to hardcore action […]

I think we have all played our fair share of zombie games by this point. And while I enjoy bolstering defenses in We Are Billions and mowing down hordes in Back 4 Blood as much as the next person, the archetypes of zombie experiences are relatively set in stone. Something developer The Indie Stone has […]

This “All of Us Are Dead” review is spoiler-free. You’re safe. The Netflix adaptation of webtoon Now at Our School by Joo Dong-geun uses a gory if familiar outbreak premise as a vehicle for an ambitious K-drama bearing no shortage of social critiques. “All of Us Are Dead“ (trailer here) does offer a few twists to […]

Project Zomboid is one of a rare breed in horror gaming that answers the question ‘could you survive this in real life?’ with a gleefully mocking ‘of course not, you stupidhead’. First released on Steam Greenlight back in 2013, Project Zomboid has grown into a ridiculously deep hardcore zombie apocalypse survival sim where death is […]
Another original horror series is on the way from Netflix, with the Korean zombie series “All of Us Are Dead” originally announced a while back and now finally on the way. We don’t yet have a premiere date for the series but it was included in Netflix’s January 2022 lineup, sent out today, and the […]
SYFY’s revamp of Romero’s zombie classic adds little to the overcrowded corner of horror and loses itself in generic melodrama and scares. Do we need another zombie television show? That’s the question that’s inherently on everyone’s minds when they even hear about a new zombie television series that pulls from George A. Romero’s Day of […]
George A. Romero’s classic Dead films may have sparked an explosion of zombie media, but it took quite a while for these undead ghouls to invade television screens. Unlike ghosts, werewolves and vampires, which benefited from popular shows like Dark Shadows, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Supernatural, shambling corpses were usually left out of prime-time […]
