Isn’t the Walking Dead an old movie? I remember we went to a Drive-in Movie in St Augustine, Florida back in September of 1966. The first movie they showed was Dracula and the second one was the Walking Dead. Dracula was scary enough for me, but the Walking Dead was even more so.

There have been a lot of zombie movies and they all seem to have "dead" in the title.

"Night of the Living Dead" (1968) -- with all its endless remakes and sequels -- is the most famous.

"The Plague of the Zombies" was a 1966 flick from Britain. "Orgy of the Dead" was a 1965 American one.

And lo! "Creature of the Walking Dead" was a 1965 low budget exploitation film that got very low ratings from critics and viewers. So that must be the one.

About O'Reilly: he's sort of right, but it's been that way for a very long time, at least since cable broke up the old three network monopoly.

The difference with the AMC show is that the title refers to the human characters.
