Why it was okay:

1. A zombie, who used to be a drug dealer, got run over several times.

Why it sucked:

1. None of the main characters are likable. You have:
A. A heroin addict
B. His b!tch of a sister, who can’t wait to get away from her parents and who has a penchant for dark meat
C. His mother, who is a high school guidance counselor and an idiot, but then I repeat myself
D. His mother’s live in boyfriend (way to set an example for your kids) who happens to be a high school teacher

2. There is no real tension...you already know this is the start of the zombie apocalypse, not like they’re going to find a cure or anything.

3. The setting is Los Angeles. While I might enjoy watching that cesspool get slowly destroyed, it still is a pimple on the ass of the world.

4. The “authorities” are already the bad guys. Trust no one with a badge. They even had a Ferguson-like moment with a viral video of police officers emptying their guns into poor defenseless zombies.

5. There are liberal gotchas galore - the heroin addicts shoot up in an abandoned church, a mixed race couple, a nice, polite, black young man ends up being the neighborhood drug dealer...you get the picture.

I could go on and on, but it is obvious that this is NOT The Walking Dead. This is the zombie apocalypse through liberal-tinted lenses.
