Video Inside ‘The Walking Dead’: Meet the First Zombie
In the latest making-of video featurette, special effects make-up designer, Greg Nicotero, talks about the creation of the infamous big-eyed zombie in the second season of AMC’s “The Walking Dead.”
The project is set among a group of zombie survivors of an apocalypse who are led by a police officer, Rick Grimes (Lincoln), in search of a safe place to live. In this latest season of AMC’s “The Walking Dead” TV series, the survivors arrive at Hershel’s Farm, where we will meet Hershel Greene (Scott Wilson), a vet (as in a veterinarian); his daughter, Maggie (Lauren Cohan); and Otis (Pruitt Taylor Vince), the middle-aged ranch foreman who’s such a sweetheart that he all but loses it when he accidentally shoots a fellow survivor. The new cast members join series regulars Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes, Sarah Wayne Callies as Lori Grimes, Jon Bernthal as Shane Walsh, Laurie Holden as Andrea, Jeffrey DeMunn as Dale, Steven Yeun as Glenn, and Chandler Riggs as Carl Grimes.
The second season will consist of a 13-episode arc and will premiere this Fall on AMC.
A couple trapped with a zombie finds potential salvation in a horror-loving neighbor in the official trailer for Turning Point.
Lionsgate releases Turning Point on VOD and Digital on August 25, 2026.
Joshua Wagner writes and directs.
In the film, “There is danger in the night, but the true terror is inside the house. Trapped within the home of a zombie in transition, Margot and her partner in crime must find their way out before they become the ghoul’s first victims. Their only hope for survival is a bizarre neighbor with an expert knowledge of the undead and the flicker of humanity remaining in their mutating stalker.“
The bizarre neighbor here, Casper, is played by DJ Qualls (Road Trip, “Creepshow“).
Jillian Lee Garner, Mike Apple, Shane Brady (“Ballers,” Synchronic, Doctor Sleep), Lydia Hearst (The Haunting of Sharon Tate, “Z Nation,” Slayers) and Sanchita Malik (Happy Anniversary, “Love,” “Escape the Night”) also star.
Turning Point has been rated “R” for violent content, gore, language, and some drug use.
