Sorry for the onslaught of The Walking Dead news today, but since filming began this shi*t has been popping! This afternoon AMC provided Bloody Disgusting with the FIRST EVER official image from the Frank Darabont directed pilot episode that will kick off the 6-episode season this October. The image features your first look at one of the undead in the actual series. Of the formation of the zombies, creator, director, and executive producer Frank Darabont says “Greg Nicotero is absolutely out-doing himself. The work he is doing is beyond what one could hope for. Our Zombies kick a**!” I would say so – just wait until you see what awaits you beyond the break!!!
