-Hey, I'm Joe Bob Briggs,

and this is gonna be
interesting tonight.

This is a special AMC+ edition
of "The Last Drive-In",

which normally appears Friday
nights on Shudder,

but we begged em to let us have
"The Walking Dead" on our show,

which is now about 8 episodes
into its final season,

and so we moved over here to
the big-boy chairs

for one night only,
and we're kinda having

double Halloween this year,
right, Darcy?

-Oh, yeah. You can never
have enough Halloween.

-And apparently you can't have
enough "Walking Dead",

'cause I think they're currently
shooting the 917th episode

in that little Georgia town
that's sort of become

a "Walking Dead" theme park.

What's the name of that town
in Georgia?

-Senoia?

-Senoia, Georgia.

Better known as Woodbury.

Better known as Terminus
in seasons 4 and 5.

Better known as Alexandria,
Virginia,

in seasons 5 through 10.

You can go there
and get a zombie burger

and visit famous locations where
beloved characters have died.

[Laughs] Right?

Because one thing we know about
"The Walking Dead"

is if you're an actor,
eventually

the assistant director
is gonna tug on

your sleeve and say,
"Uh, would you mind stopping

by the production office
this morning for a meeting

with the director and the entire
special makeup effects crew?"

'Cause it's a heartache show!
It's a show about heartache!

-So...
-With some of
the best kills ever.

And we have the creators of
those kills with us tonight.

But I should introduce you,
for people coming to the show

for the first time --

Darcy the Mail Girl,
ladies and gentlemen!

But because of the nature of
this show, we have no mail!

-So.
-I have mail.

Even though we've never done
this before?

Where'd -- Where'd you get mail?

-I got mail.

-OK, well, we have other plans
for you tonight, anyway,

so once I introduce our
two special guests you'll see.

-Should I be scared?

-You should be very scared, yes.

But since we're celebrating
the last season

of "The Walking Dead",
I wanted to give

a little background about
how these zombies --

the million and a half zombies
that have actually appeared

on the show,
"The Walking Dead" --

how and where these zombies
originated.

So, Austin,

do you have my Zombie Timeline
and World Atlas

readily available?

-It's never
too far away.

-Alright. OK.

The first time in history
that we hear about zombies

is in the 1600s in Angola,

the country on the west coast of
Africa that was overrun

by the Portuguese.

And the word "zombie" just means
somebody who had their soul

captured by somebody else.

Like when you say, "I can't
hardly talk to Willie Mae

anymore 'cause since she got
with Jimbo Withers,

'cause he done captured
her soul."

So this was a fear of
the native population of Angola,

that because all these
Portuguese colonists

that had disrupted the society
there,

the neighboring tribe
witch doctor would come over

and capture their souls.

But, "zombie" is actually
a French word,

and that's because the first
time it was written down

was in 1697 on the island
of Martinique,

which is a big ol' island
in the Caribbean

that's owned by France,
and in 1697,

some French degenerate
playwright wrote a sex farce

and -- where the people in
the play talked about zombies.

Now, this was obviously brought
over from Africa because,

you know, slavery in
the Caribbean

was just everywhere,

but once again,
they talked about it

like it was something that got
done to you by another person.

And we know this because
Lafcadio Hearn --

[Laughter]

this will be the second time
this year

that I've talked about
Lafcadio Hearn,

mainly because I just like
saying the name

Lafcadio Hearn.
So, Lafcadio Hearn,

the Greek-Irish journalist --
he was actually from

some little, uh, strange island
in Greece.

He had myopia, even though he
was a journalist, but he --

and he worked in New Orleans
most of his career

even though he started in
Cincinnati, um,

before becoming -- he became
a Japanese citizen, actually,

eventually.

Would you like me to say
that again?

No, I will not.
Anyway, Lafcadio Hearn

spent two years in Martinique
in the 1880s --

we're back in the Caribbean --

so, Martinique --
and much of that time,

he was studying zombie folklore.

And this is the first time
the world ever heard

about dead people walking,
because Lafcadio Hearn wrote

in English, like God intended.

All the previous stuff was
written in other languages.

So. But we all know where
the zombies end up, right?

We know this
from Wes Craven, right?

It's those voodoo Creoles
in Haiti.

Now, how do we know this?

We know this because of
William Seabrook,

who was son of a preacher.

This is Haiti. It's, like,
up the road from Martinique.

William Seabrook,
who was son of a preacher

and an Atlanta journalist,
got gassed in World War I,

and he was never quite the same
after he got gassed.

So he started billing himself as
The White Adventurer,

and he wrote books about living
with the Bedouin in Iraq,

and he wrote books about Jordan,
and he hung out

with all the leading luminaries
of the day

like Hemingway
and Sinclair Lewis.

And he wrote a book called
"The Magic Island" in 1928

that is all about Haiti.

And in that book he goes into
voodoo ritual,

and he has a chapter called

"Dead Men Working
in Cane Fields",

and he describes
these three zombies that he met.

They had dead eyes,
they were staring and unfocused,

and they never talked,

and they were used
for slave labor.

And so William Seabrook goes
around and investigates

and he decides that what's going
on is that the voodoo priests

in Haiti are giving
a secret drug to people

to put them
into suspended animation.

So they're not alive
and they're not dead,

they're just existing.

So "The Magic Island" book
is what caused

all this intense interest
in zombies.

But zombies were always in
pulp fiction, though.

They weren't in regular
newspapers.

They were in stories
in magazines

like Weird Tales
and Thrilling Mysteries.

And eventually,
"The Magic Island" inspired

the movie "White Zombie"
in 1932,

Which was a cheapie
that they filmed in 11 days

in what was then known as
Poverty Row.

Now, has anybody seen
"White Zombie"?

You know, it's the first
zombie movie.

Seems like it would be on
everybody's list.

Darcy?
Have you seen "White Zombie"?

-Yeah, it's --
it's a little slow.

-It is kinda slow.

It had Bela Lugosi in it.

Lugosi is the zombie master,
and his victim is Madge Bellamy.

Do you know who that is?

-I don't think so.

-Madge Bellamy had been
a pretty big silent star.

She starred in a colossal hit,
"Lorna Doone",

but she was a diva,
and so when sound came in,

nobody really wanted to
work with her anymore,

so here she was making
this cheapie that was shot

using rented sets
from famous movies.

They mostly shot it
on the Universal lot.

And, in fact, the whole cast
is faded silent film actors.

The most famous one
was Joseph Cawthorn

as the missionary who saves
Madge Bellamy from Bela Lugosi.

So anyway, "White Zombie"
got horrible reviews,

but it made back 20 times
its budget

for the Halperin brothers,
Victor and Edward Halperin,

two producers
nobody had ever heard of.

And really, if you look at the
whole history of zombies

in the movies, they're always
B movies,

from the beginning
right through to now.

So here's my point.

"White Zombie" is the first time

most people have heard of
zombies.

The word "zombie" wasn't even in
the dictionary until 1935,

and the idea is that every
zombie has to have

a zombie master who puts them
into the zombie state

to begin with,
and zombies are created by

these evil witch doctors.

Or by Don the Beachcomber.

Do you know who
Don the Beachcomber is?

He invented the cocktail called
the Zombie

right after "White Zombie"
came out.

And Don the Beachcomber's recipe
for the Zombie was different

than what they use later--

-Uh, I don't think we need
the recipe for a Zombie.

-Oh, yeah, I forgot,
we're on AMC now,

and we gotta keep this relevant.

-Little too late
for that.

-Darcy, this is history,
have a little respect.

So "White Zombie" comes out
and the producers make

a lot of money, and they get
sued by a guy named Kenneth Webb

who had written a play called
"Zombie"

that came out before
"White Zombie."

It ran for 21 performances at
the Biltmore Theater on Broadway

in February of 1932.

But really, everybody was
getting their zombie ideas

from the same place, and that
place was "The Magic Island"

by William Seabrook, and he was
not available to consult

on these projects because he was
a raging alcoholic

who was traveling all
over the world

trying to get somebody to cook
human flesh for him.

He was an aspiring cannibal.

-Oh, my God,
you're making that up.

-No. The guy who popularized
zombies went to Africa,

and found somebody who said
they were willing to serve him

human flesh, and then got
furious because he found out

it was not human flesh at all --

it was plain old gorilla flesh.

-Oh, my God, this is awful.

-And, yeah -- I mean -- very --
Well, very disturbing to vegans

like yourself, Darcy,
but I'm sure.

So Seabrook goes to a hospital
in Paris,

and he bribes somebody --

Paris is here.

He bribes somebody into giving
him some flesh

from the morgue --
recently deceased flesh.

And he takes it to a friend's
house, and he asks the friend

to use the kitchen,
and he tells him --

he tells him it's goat meat.

And so his friend was a chef,
and he agreed to cook the meat

for him, and he agreed to
cook it three ways --

as a roast, broiled,
and in a ragout.

And what is a ragout?

-Something awful.

-Yeah, well, actually, no,
I think that's the one

you would choose, Darcy,
because it has vegetables

mixed in.
It's like a stew.

So, he puts the meat in with--
-Oh, yeah,

that definitely makes it OK.

-OK. So Seabrook eats
everything, and he takes notes

on what he's eating, and he says
it tastes like --

you wanna guess what he said
it tastes like?

-Chicken?

-Yeah, that woulda been
my guess, too,

because that's what everyone
says, you know,

when they eat
anything disgusting.

But no, he said it tasted like,
quote,

"good fully-developed veal."

Why are we talking about this?

Well, we're talking about this
because the guy

who originally introduced
zombies to the world

was apparently interested in
eating human flesh,

which may explain
why the narrative

gets a little weird
at this point.

So, at any rate, because of
the various legal difficulties

and lawsuits,
the Halperin brothers needed

4 years before they could
put out the sequel

to "White Zombie", called
"Revolt of the Zombies",

and this time, they get sued,
again,

by their original investors,
who claim they own

the word "zombie."

And a judge agrees with them,
and so they have to pay damages.

And so that ends the whole
zombie cycle for the '30s.

So for the next 30 years,
every cheap zombie movie

has some kind of mad scientist
or voodoo doctor

who puts people into
zombie trances

for his nefarious ends,
you know,

often so that he can enslave
a beautiful woman.

"The Ghost Breakers",
"King of the Zombies",

"Zombies on Broadway"
with Bela Lugosi.

"Voodoo Man", with Bela Lugosi
as a witch doctor.

"Revenge of the Zombies"
with John Carradine

as the mad, zombie-creating
scientist.

"Zombies of Mora Tau."

"Teenage Zombies" -- you know,
that one actually combined

zombies and sci-fi.

The only good one during
this period

was "I Walked with a Zombie"
in 1943,

directed by Jacques Tourneur,

one of those films that's always
called "atmospheric", you know.

When it kinda drags in
the middle

but has a lot of misty vistas
and stuff, they call it

"atmospheric".

But it was still all about
voodoo spells

in the Caribbean.

OK, did you follow this
so far, Darcy?

-Yeah, on it.
-Alright.

Then, on one day,
October the 1st, 1968,

everything changes
with a single movie

that never uses the word
"zombie" at all.

I speak, of course,

of "Night of the Living Dead."

For the first time, we have what
the world today calls a zombie.

There's no longer
any voodoo priest.

There's no longer
any pharmaceuticals involved.

The zombies rise up out
of their graves,

and they're hungry,
and they're aggressive.

So, George Romero
changed all the rules,

and those rules still apply
today, to wit, as follows.

Numero Uno -- the zombies are
human bodies that have come back

from death
as unthinking animals.

Numero Two-o --
they need living human flesh

to continue to move around.

Numero Three-o --
they're aggressive and violent.

Numero Four-o -- you have to
destroy their brains to kill em.

And Numero Five-o -- nobody
knows what reanimated them

or where they came from or
how many of them there are.

Now, that last rule may be the
most important principle of all,

because all later zombie writers
directors were able to make up

origin stories for their undead.

So, every zombie movie since

has been some version of
the George Romero zombie.

Probably the best of those
were the "Evil Dead" trilogy

of Sam Raimi, Dan O'Bannon's
"Return of the Living Dead",

written by Romero's collaborator
John Russo,

"28 Days Later" which introduced
the fast-moving, angry zombie,

and then "Train to Busan"
which perfected

the fast-moving angry zombie.

The only zombie movie after 1968

that went back to
the voodoo origins

was Wes Craven's
"The Serpent and the Rainbow,"

based on the book by a Harvard
anthropologist named Wade Davis,

who really did spend two years
in Haiti studying zombie-ism

but did not get his scrotum
nailed to a chair --

that scene was a special effect
dreamed up by Wes Craven

that -- that still has me
squirming.

So, anyway, Wade Davis actually
found out the recipes

for the plants and animal parts
that were used

by the voodoo doctors to create
zombies, and he identified

the main neurotoxin that creates
the zombie state,

and it's in the same family as
the Japanese delicacy, fugu.

Fugucan be made from a
pufferfish or a porcupine fish

and what you do is you

take the pufferfish ingredients,
and you put them together --

-I don't think we need
the recipe for fugu.

Are you done over here?

-OK, I guess not, but anyway,
Wade Davis came up with

the same conclusions in the '80s
that William Seabrook

came up with in 1928 --
that zombie-ism

is a death-like state caused
by certain poisonous drugs

that have to be administered
through the skin,

usually with an open wound.

But Wes Craven tried to film
"The Serpent and the Rainbow"

in Haiti and he finished about
two-thirds of it

and he had to flee the country
in the dead of night

because the locals were getting
violent with his crews.

So, there's not a lot of film
production in Haiti,

as a result.
-Are you done for real now?

-No because that brings us --

that brings us to
"The Walking Dead".

-That only took about
3 1/2 hours.

And what is this, by the way?

-That -- This is a --
This is familiar to what --

-It looks like a three-year-old
did it with crayons.

Just saying. Just saying.
-It's made for 3-year-olds.

It's the way we teach zombie-ism
in the elementary schools.

So, Darcy, have some respect
for history.

And all of this, you know --
all of this leads to Georgia.

-Did I miss something?

-All of this leads to
the magical night

of October 31st, 2010,
Halloween night,

when 6.5 million people tuned in
to the premiere episode

of "The Walking Dead",
produced by Robert Kirkman,

who did the extremely popular
comic books

called The Walking Dead,
plus Gale Anne Hurd,

who was a Roger Corman protegee
who produced "The Terminator"

and "Aliens", "Tremors".
-Yeah.

-Directed by Frank Darabont
of "Shawshank Redemption"

and "The Green Mile" fame,
with special effects

by Greg Nicotero, who had
apprenticed -- he --

Greg apprenticed before
on "Day of the Dead",

the George Romero film,
and represents our direct link

to the George Romero zombie
of 1968.

So "The Walking Dead" was
the pinnacle, 42 years later,

of the modern zombie.

-Did we really need all that?

-Yes, we need all that,
'cause you have to explain

what a zombie is if you're gonna
show the most intense,

expansive, world-encompassing
zombie project of all time.

-I really just think people know
a zombie when they see one.

-Well, yes, they do, but that's
because of the previous 82 years

of American zombification lore,
as presented through cinema.

And as I outlined --
-I'll take your word for it.

-Alright. OK, well, you don't
have to take my word for it

because in just a few minutes,
we'll be welcoming Greg Nicotero

to the set...
-Yeah!

-And he has probably touched
or influenced or shaped

more zombies in his lifetime
than we could ever dream of.

He knows his zombies
from "Z" to "Z."

So, we'll ask him if
my historical survey

was correct.

-Let's -- Let's not do that.

Let's ask him about
how he makes zombies.

-I actually wanna ask him if
a zombie master in Haiti today

would nail somebody's scrotum to
a chair in real life,

and whether he's ever reproduced
having a scrotum nailed

to a chair in any movie.
OK, I digress.

-Naw.
-And now, let's watch

the sensitive story
of what happens

when a mild-mannered
deputy sheriff from a small town

in Georgia wakes up
in a hospital room,

still recovering
from a gunshot wound,

only to discover that
the entire world

has been overrun
by zombie hordes.

While searching for his wife
and son, Deputy Rick

soon finds out that it might
take 11 seasons

just to clean up Georgia,
much less the other 49 states,

the District of Columbia,
Guam and American Samoa.

So, the subtitle for
"The Walking Dead" could be

"The Education of Rick,"
because, just to give you

one indication of how naive
he is,

in the first season, he goes to
the Centers For Disease Control

to get a solution.

So, fortunately for us,
the survivors

in this post-modern western
never run out of ammo,

and AMC never runs out
of zombies.

And the result is the saga
that took the term

"long-form television"
a little too literally

and eventually made Leo Tolstoy

look like a guy
who writes short stories.

So, it was
"The Texas Chain Saw Massacre"

that first asked the question,
"Who will survive,

and what will be left of them?"

"The Walking Dead" combines that
idea with the themes

from "Death Wish",
"Fort Apache",

"The Good, the Bad, and the
Ugly", "Apollo 13",

and "Faces of Death" to create
a new conundrum --

"Who will survive,
what will be left of them,

and who will eat
what's left of them?"

So, let's look at
those drive-in totals

for the premiere episode
and get started here.

We have...

Drive-In Academy Award
nominations for

Andrew Lincoln, as Deputy Rick,

for riding into downtown Atlanta
on a horse to save the day,

then watching as the horse gets
devoured.

Lennie James as Morgan,
the family man

who can't pull the trigger
on his zombie wife.

Frank Darabont, the director,

Greg Nicotero,
the zombie design master,

and Robert Kirkman,
the creator

of the original comic
and the screenwriter,

for doing things
the "Drive-In" way.

Four stars.
Joe Bob says...

check it out.

You know, I'm concerned that
people who don't see us

every week, who are just
watching this thing on AMC,

they're gonna think
we're longwinded.

-Wow, I wonder where they'd get
that idea. [Laughs]

-I actually wanted to talk more
about Madge Bellamy.

But, you know, you were...
-Who?

-...Telling me to keep it short.

You know, the star of
"White Zombie", Madge Bellamy.

-Oh, my God,
that was, like, days ago.

Nobody remembered that now.

-Well, people should
remember her.

You know, because she has a star
on the Walk of Fame.

You know where Bela Lugosi's
star is?

-Absolutely. Corner of Ivar
and Hollywood Boulevard.

-Alright, if you can geek out
about Bela Lugosi,

I can geek out about
his co-star, Madge Bellamy.

-OK, Boss.

-You know where
the Hollywood Rock

ice cream shop is?
-No.

-It's your neighborhood!
Don't you know where that is?

-I don't know where it is.
[Laughs]

-Madge Bellamy's star
is right in front

of the Hollywood Rock
ice cream shop.

You should know that.

-No I shouldn't.
-OK.

It just seems like you would
occasionally want

some frozen yogurt or something
and you would notice

the Madge Bellamy star
in front of Hollywood Rock.

Someday, you will.

-Next time I see it, I will pay
my respects.

-And the Don the Beachcomber
recipe for the Zombie...

-Stop.
-..Is --

I'll stop.
-Thank you.

-What's the difference
between men and women?

-Shane: This a joke?

-No, I'm serious.

-Never met a woman who knew
how to turn off a light.

They're born thinking
the switch only goes one way...

-...on.
-[Mutters]

-They're struck blind
the second they leave a room.

I mean, every woman I ever let
have a key, I swear to God.

It's like... come home,
house all lit up.

[Scoffs] And my job, you see,
apparently because --

because my chromosomes happen to
be different,

is I then gotta walk through
that house,

turn off every single light
this chick left on.

-Is that right?
-Yeah, baby. Mmm.

Oh, Reverend Shane's a-preachin'
to you now, boy.

[Laughter]

And then, the same chick,
mind you,

she'll bitch about,
uh, global warming, see?

You see, this is --
this is when Reverend Shane

wants to quote from
the Guy Gospel and say,

"Um, darling, maybe you
and every other pair of boobs

on this planet could just
figure out that

the light switch, you see,
goes both ways,

maybe we wouldn't have
so much global warming."

You know?
-You say that?

-Mmm. Yeah, well,
the, uh, polite version.

[Laughs] Still, man, that...
that earns me this --

this look of loathing
you would not believe.

And that's when
the "Exorcist" voice pops out.

"You sound just
like my damn father.

Always -- always yelling about
the power bill,

telling me to turn off
the damn lights."

-And what do you say to that?

-You know what I wanna say?

I wanna say, "Bitch, you mean to
tell me you've been hearing this

your entire life and you are
still too damn stupid to learn

how to turn off a switch?"

[Laughter]

You know, I won't actually
say that, though.

-That would be bad.
-Right? Right?

Yeah, I got with the, uh --
I go with the polite version

there, too, so.
-Very wise.

-Yes, sir. [Laughs]
-Mm-hmmm.

-Well.

So how's it
with Lori, man?

-She's good. She's good at
turning off lights.

Really good. And I'm the one
who sometimes forgets.

-Not what I meant.

-We didn't have a great night.

-Hey, look, man, I may have, uh,
failed to amuse with my sermon,

but I did try.

The least you could do is speak.

-That's -- that's what
she always says -- "Speak."

"Speak".

You'd think I was the most
closed-mouth son of a bitch

if you ever hear her tell it.

-Do you express your thoughts?

Do you share your feelings
and that kind of stuff?

-The thing is...

lately, whenever I try,

everything I say
makes her impatient,

like she didn't want
to hear it after all.

-Mm.

-It's like she's...
pissed at me all the time,

and I don't know why.

-Look, man. It's just shit
couples go through.

You know, it's a phase.

-The last thing
she said this morning --

"Sometimes I wonder if you even
care about us at all."

She said that
in front of our kid.

Imagine going to school
with that in your head.

The difference between men and
women?

I would never say something
that cruel to her.

And certainly not
in front of Carl.

[Police radio chatter]

[Static]

♪♪

OK, so, uh, not the best
police procedure in the world,

but we are talking about
rural Georgia.

Everybody relaxes their guard
and holsters their weapons

prior to clearing
that overturned vehicle,

which, as we know, from every
bodycam cop reality show

ever filmed, is something
cops never do. [Laughs]

Resulting in a stomach wound,
though, for Deputy Rick,

which, by the way, is one of
the most likely wounds

to kill you from
bleeding out.

So I guess what they're doing
here is they're establishing

that this scene takes place
in the Old World

where people were still a little
lax with their weapons --

unlike the foreshadowing scene
before the titles

where Rick has to gun
down the little girl

holding a teddy bear
and wearing bunny slippers.

You know, for a certain
generation that scene

has gotta bring up
all those memories

of the Viet Cong civilians
who killed American soldiers

by pretending to be harmless
but then blowing themselves up

or revealing a hidden grenade
at the last moment.

You know, women, children,
the elderly --

you could never tell
who was lethal in Vietnam.

And, of course,
as we'll find out here directly,

everyone is potentially lethal
in a "Walking Dead" episode.

Of course that's Andrew Lincoln,
the British actor

previously best known
for starring in

the Christmas-themed romantic
comedy "Love Actually" --

[Laughs] one of
your favorites, right, Darcy?

-Oh, not really.

-You were late to
one of our watchalongs

because you were watching
"Love Actually."

You know, you have a thing for
Andrew Lincoln.

His real name
was Andrew Clutterbuck,

but he changed his acting name
the way they used to do it

at the old Hollywood studios.

-Man, I do love Rick
in the show,

and I even have a Rick Grimes
cosplay that I wear.

But "Love Actually",
not so much.

-Alright, well, I'm glad
you mentioned cosplay

because we're about to do
some major cosplay.

And actually,
I'm actually demeaning it

by calling it cosplay.

We're about to do
some major special effects

visual tricks on
your face and torso,

applied by the top zombie makeup
guys in the business.

Alrighty, now, are you gonna be
up for that?

-Are you kidding?
I live for stuff like this.

-OK, then you're in luck
because our first guest

for tonight's episode of
"The Last Drive-In" --

come on over here, Greg --

is Greg Nicotero.
[Cheers and applause]

Have a seat, Greg.
-How are you?

-Greg is not only
a special effects makeup legend,

but is an executive producer
on "The Walking Dead,"

has directed a lot of
the episodes over the years,

and you even have your own
"Walking Dead" restaurant

in Senoia, Georgia.
We were talking about Senoia

in the intro.

That you co-own
with Norman Reedus.

-Yeah.

-One of the most beloved
"Walking Dead" actors.

So -- So, Greg, if I go to
Nick and Norm's restaurant

in Senoia, Georgia,
can I order a zombie burger?

-We don't have a zombie burger
on the menu,

but we have a Norman burger,
we have a Greg burger.

There are zombie drinks --
zombie-themed...

-Oh, OK.
-...Alcoholic beverages.

I would recommend those.

-Do you follow the original
Don the Beachcomber

Zombie recipe?

-We do not.
[Laughter]

And I heard a little bit of it.
You almost spilled the beans

on it a minute ago.
-You know, well,

there was -- there was a debate
between the Don the Beachcomber

Zombie recipe and the
Trader Vic's Zombie recipe,

and so I was gonna explain that,
but of course,

we didn't have time for that.
So --

-Trader Vic's is pretty good,
though.

-[Laughs] Alright.

I assume your menu is all
about meat, though, right?

-No, it's actually --
it's a gourmet burger joint.

Just happens to be set in Senoia
on the main street.

I actually got killed by
Laurie Holden as a zombie

in season 3 about 15 feet out
the front door.

-Oh, OK. Is there a monument
there or a plaque?

-No. There's just --
-[Laughs]

-There's just pain and memory
from when she hit me in the head

with her gun during
one of the takes.

-Alright, well, I --
I was going to say,

we should alert
the local health authorities

to your meat recipes,
but great to have you here.

Where were you
on Halloween night, 2010?

-[Sighs] I was actually in my
house in Los Angeles,

just dying for
the show to come on, you know.

I feel like because I grew up in
Pittsburgh,

it's in my blood, you know.
Like, the zombie --

It took this long for everyone
else to kind of catch up

on how great the zombie genre
was, and because of

Kirkman's comic books and then,
you know, the advent of

the video game. I think
when video games came out,

and you were able to have --
like, first person shooter,

you can actually shoot zombies
that were trying to chase you

and kill you -- that --
that sort of reinvigorated

the genre.
-But on that night,

which is kind of a famous night
in television lore...

-Yeah.
-...Did the people involved

with "The Walking Dead"
have a sense that you had

a blockbuster hit on your hands,
or were you still wondering

whether it would work or not, or
what was your feeling about it?

-Well, you know,
it was challenging

because, you know, Zack Snyder's
"Dawn of the Dead"

had come out,
"Shaun of the Dead"

had come out, we had made
"Land of the Dead" --

there was a lot of zombie stuff
that was there.

But what I think "Walking Dead"
ended up doing

was it opened it to
a broader audience,

because of the characters
and humanization.

Like, you felt sympathy when you
see the half-zombie in the park.

-Right, right.
-So I knew we had something

special, and I knew that we had
something groundbreaking,

and I remember being on the set
with George

on "Land of the Dead",
and there were still concerns

about censorship because in --
you know,

when "Dawn of the Dead" came out
in '77 or '78 --

-You couldn't put that stuff on
TV.

-You couldn't put it on TV,
so we were doing things

on television that nobody had
been doing even in the movies

10 years earlier, so there was
a lot sort of riding on this,

but, you know, I gotta give
the network a lot of credit

for really letting Frank do what
he wanted to do.

-Yeah, well there were
6.5 million people

watching that premiere episode,
and those are great numbers

for TV in any season, any year,

but it would eventually go up to
17 million per episode,

which are unheard of numbers
in this age

of multiple channels,
multiple devices,

multiple ways
to spend your time.

So I wanna ask you one question
before we bring out

your esteemed colleague
and we start zombifying Darcy.

What was it, in your opinion,
about the world in the year 2010

that made us all ripe
for zombie apocalypse shows?

I mean, I-I -- I mean, I--
Horror fans had been following

stories like this for years --

since the original
"Night of the Living Dead"

in 1968, but this was
a crossover phenomenon,

as you pointed out.
I mean, millions of people

that had never thought about
zombies before

were fascinated by
"The Walking Dead".

Now, don't say it was just
great writing

and great direction,
'cause we know that.

-It was, yes.
-It had to be more than that.

It was a certain time in
America.

-Well, you know, I think,
for me, the most important part

is it's an evolving story.

It' not a story that you can
tie up in two hours,

where you can set it up,
introduce the characters,

and resolve the situation
or the conflict.

So the fact that we have had
170 or so hours

to really get into who these
characters were and understand

what they're willing to do to
survive and what --

what this sort of global, epic
thing would do

to each, individual person.

So, it didn't have to get
wrapped up in two hours,

and I think that that really has
a tremendous amount

to do with it.
-But the -- the richest,

most privileged country in
the world wanted to watch

a story that's just
the bleakest... [Laughs]

the bleakest post-apocalyptic --
I don't know, it's, like,

nihilistic.
I would say it's nihilistic.

-Yeah.
-You know, it's like,

there's no hope.

And that's what we wanted to
watch in 2010.

It's still a little mysterious
to me as to why we wanted to

watch that.
-Well, you know, you have --

you have Rick, who -- who won't
give up looking for his wife

and his son, and he holds onto
that hope,

no matter what's happening
around him,

and there's always,
in the world, stuff happening

around you that you don't want
to look at, you don't want to --

you don't want to accept as
really happening.

You have to find the strength
and what is that one thing

that will keep you going?
And with Rick,

that one thing is he's gotta
find -- he's gotta find his son,

and he's gotta find his wife.

-So he's sort of the symbol
of civilization.

But he starts to fall apart,
too.

So, [laughs] alright,
you have graciously agreed

to do some zombie schooling
for us here tonight,

and to help you with that,
I want to introduce

one of your most esteemed
colleagues

in the world of
special effects makeup.

He's a supervisor at
your special effects company,

KNB, Carey Jones.
So, come on out, Carey.

[Cheers and applause]

Glad to have you here.
-Hey, buddy.

-Yeah, Carey, you have created
almost as many zombies

as Greg, right?
-[Laughs]

Almost. Yeah, almost.

-OK, I get letters and e-mails
every day

from young people saying
"What's the best way

to break into
special effects makeup?"

You know, so I can imagine
what you guys must get.

And the questions you must get
and the number of kids

that wanna know,
"How can I do what you do?"

-Yeah, that question comes up
a lot.

I mean, I'm lucky enough, I grew
up in Pittsburgh, you know,

like Greg, and at the time,
there was a lot of stuff

being shot there, so I just
so happened to grow up

when they were still shooting
a lot of stuff in Pittsburgh.

So that's kind of how I was
privy to that, you know.

-Yeah. You're from Pittsburgh
and Greg,

you are from Pittsburgh,
and one thing I know

from the history
of zombie movies is,

if you wanna do anything
in this world of zombies,

be from Pittsburgh, right?
-Yeah.

-You know, that's the --
-Or make it into --

Or make it through Pittsburgh.
-Make a pilgrimage there

at some point.
-But what's interesting, too,

is for us, the last time that
there was -- there was such

a resounding interest
in special effects makeup

was after "Dawn of the Dead".
Between that period of, like,

'77-'81, '82, where you had
Rick Baker,

you had Tom Savini, of course.

You had Rob Bottin.
The makeup effects were kind of

the stars of all those movies --
"Friday the 13th".

-Right.
-You know, Stan Winston,

all those guys,
all of a sudden,

people were going to the theater
to see makeup effects

and creature effects
and prosthetics.

So that --
-And Fangoria Magazine.

-Fangoria Magazinecame out,
"Dawn of the Dead"

was in the first issue.
So that was what got

people in sort of my age bracket
and Carey's age bracket

interested in makeup effects.
So what "Walking Dead"

has been able to do is, I feel
like I'm paying it forward

because now I have young kids
that are responding to

"The Walking Dead" the way
that I responded to

"Dawn of the Dead", you know,
"American Werewolf in London",

"The Thing", all of
those movies.

So, it really -- it really --
the legacy that I feel

that we're leaving by with
"Walking Dead" is the ability

to cultivate new talent and have
these young people coming to me

and saying, "I want to do what
you do", because I was that kid.

When I met Tom Savini for
the first time, I was that kid.

-Well, after you learned all
the practical effects, though,

didn't you have to, like,
start a new education and learn

all the CGI that goes with
your practical effects?

-Well, you know, the way that we
sort of perceive it

is every -- every department is
a tool that you contribute to...

-A handshake between different
departments.

-...This painting, you know.
Like, a director comes in

and says, "This is what
the painting that I want."

And you're like,
"OK, stunts does that,

makeup effects does that,
visual effects does that.

It's when everything sings in
concert is really when it works.

And that's kind of what we do.
You know, in the first episode

of "The Walking Dead"
that we're looking at now,

I would say 70% of the head-hits
were practical.

We had little -- we had little
funnels that we would attach

to the back of the performers,
and with a tube

that went off to a little
bellows stomper rig

that Carey and I built.
So you'd see this zombie

come around the corner and look,
and then when his head

would explode, there'd be a guy
off-camera stepping on

a bellows, which would force
all the blood out.

-Wow.
-So, we -- We're trying to do

as much practical --
-That's how you did those shots

where you're in the cross hairs?

-That's rights right.
When Morgan shoots, yeah.

-And that was a lot of the fun
with the first season.

It's, like, all this stuff,
we were just coming up

with new ideas on how to create
that, and that's, for me,

what made it fun, you know,
as problem-solvers,

coming up with ideas on how to
make this stuff practically

was -- was -- you know, a lot of
people that were on --

-Well, I would think that
even today,

you do more practical effects

than almost any
big-budget movie.

-Yeah, I mean, the only other
thing that would be comparable

would have been
"Game of Thrones",

which a lot of those
White Walkers were digital

because the design was
different.

But, you know,
we have a makeup team,

and we're 11 years
into doing

dozens and dozens
of zombies per episode.

-OK.
-And after that long,

there's definitely a shorthand
on how we come up with stuff.

-Right.
-You have to make it efficient

to kinda crank out
that many makeups.

-TV schedule. I mean,
it's not a movie schedule.

It's a TV schedule.
-Right.

-How many days per episode?

-Right now, we're about 9.

-9 days for the whole episode?
-So, we're shooting

basically a zombie movie
in 9 days.

-Wow, OK.

Carey, you have graciously
agreed to zombify Darcy.

And I guess -- and normally,
I know if you were gonna

do that, you would start with
probably a life cast,

if this was gonna be a major
zombie in the show.

But we obviously don't have time
to stick her in wet cement

for half a day, so you're gonna
do this on the fly.

This is gonna be like
speed chess.

But we appreciate you doing this
for us.

-No, it's fun.
That's what we do.

-OK. Well, take her away.

She's agreed to let you
destroy her in any way necessary

to create the perfect zombie.

-That's not exactly what I said.

-Alright, well,
I'm just letting Carey know

that he doesn't have to
hold back.

-Thanks for that.
-Alright.

-OK, so you guys head for
the makeup room,

and we will check with you --

we'll check with you sometime
during the second episode.

OK, Greg, we have lots to talk
about while they're doing that,

but let's get back to
the premiere episode

of "The Walking Dead".

Roll the film.

And, oh, Greg! How is
"Creepshow" going?

-Oh.
-We're in the third season.

It just started.
-We're in the third season.

Interestingly enough, for me,
the first movie set

that I ever visited
was "Creepshow" in Pittsburgh.

-Yeah?
-When George was shooting

the movie, I had met him when
I was younger, and he had said,

"Oh, you should come visit
the set."

So, I had spent my first time on
a real movie set

on the original "Creepshow".
-Alright.

-So, to be able to continue
the tradition

and pay respect to the world
that George and Stephen King

created, we've produced
about 21 episodes.

-Yeah?
-And it's been a blast.

I mean, it's like my whole heart
and soul,

every story I wanted to tell,
every film-maker

that I've wanted to emulate.
-OK.

-I get a chance to do it.
-Well, we need to mention

"Creepshow" at every break

because that's Shudder's
marquee show.

[Laughter]

And you're the boss of that
show.

You -- But didn't you actually
turn down a job?

Didn't George Romero offer you a
job and you turned it down?

-Well, I was 17 or 18 years old
and I was getting ready to

go away to college to be
a doctor.

-Yeah.
-That was what I was --

that was the career path I was
on, and they had offered me

and opportunity to be
a production assistant,

and I said, "Well, you know,
I kind of am getting ready

to go away to school,
and I probably --

I probably would have to
respectfully decline."

And then George said, "Well,
just come visit

anytime you want."
That's where I met Tom Savini,

and I would visit the set of
"Creepshow" a lot.

So when "Day of the Dead"
came along in 1984,

George said, "Hey, we're doing
'Day of the Dead'.

Do you want a job?"
And I'm like...

[Growls] I said, I already
went through this once,

and so I said,
"Yes, I want a job."

I can't turn down working on
the sequel to

"Night of the Living Dead"
and "Dawn of the Dead".

So, I took the job.
-See, when you said

that George Romero offered you
a job and you said,

"No, I'm too busy.
I've got other things to do,"

half of our fans
had heart attacks.

[Laughter]

-Well...
-So, Greg, the irony.

The irony.
-Trust me, and the fact that

it came back around --
-Yeah, and then you --

And then you get another chance,
you know.

-I got another chance.
Well, you know, the zombie gods

were smiling on me, I guess.
-[Laughs] Obviously.

Yeah.

-OK, Greg, we wanted you
to feel at home,

so we got some barbecue.

-I hope this zombie's from
Texas.

-I don't know, this might be --
You know, I used to work

in Atlanta all the time,
and there was a place called

Abdullah the Butcher that had
great barbecue,

but I mean --
I'm sure it wasn't --

I'm sure it wasn't
on the level of

Greg and Norm's restaurant
in Senoia.

But, you know,
while we're watching here,

you know,
Rick is still not quite aware

of what's going on, but we are,
as an audience.

So this is an example of
the audience being way ahead

of the characters in the movie.

And the reason for that --
the reason you don't need

an extensive backstory
for "Walking Dead" --

is that, the backstory is
in "Night of the Living Dead",

"Dawn of the Dead",
"Day of the Dead",

"Land of the Dead",
and a half dozen other movies.

We already know what zombies are
and what they do

and we accept their existence.

So, would you agree with that,
Greg?

-I would agree with that,
but in our universe,

the word "zombie" -- like, the
Romero canon doesn't exist

in our universe.
-That's true.

Well, I don't think --
-In the "Walking Dead" universe.

-George never used the word
"zombie", did he?

-He used it -- He used it once
in -- "Dawn of the Dead"

was the first time that he used
it, when he -- when Ken Foree,

when they're on the balcony
and he's saying,

"My grandfather was voodoo,"
and he says,

"When there's no more room
in Hell,

the dead will walk the Earth."

And there's a line at the end of
"Dawn of the Dead"

where he says, "There's going to
be a thousand zombies

in this place."
-OK.

-So George did use it in
"Dawn of the Dead",

and then it's kind of --
-But everything goes back

to Romero, right?
-Yes, always.

-I mean, a man you worked for.

And you also apprenticed
with a good friend

of "The Last Drive-In",
Tom Savini...

-Mm-hmm.
-...Who was really --

he was really unknown before
he made "Dawn of the Dead"

with George Romero.

So how many zombies would
you say you have designed

in your lifetime?
Ballpark.

-Wow. Um...

I would say just less than
10,000.

[Laughter]
-10,000?!

Wow, I expected -- I expected --
well,

that is more than I --
[Laughs] Alright.

-It's a -- I mean, you know,
it's 11 years,

plus all the other zombie movies
that I've done.

Even "Dark Castle",
"House on Haunted Hill" remake

that Bill Malone directed,
we had zombies in that.

We've done other movies that
have had zombies in it,

so, you know --
-You ever find new things

to put on a zombie?

-Yeah.
-Yeah?

-Yeah.
-Even after 10,000?

Seems like you would repeat
yourself.

-Well, you know, you can't help
but repeat yourself,

but you know, I have a great
makeup effects team,

and, you know, I always sort of
liked the idea

that each performer that comes
in, it's a new canvas.

-OK.
-And then we provide them with

the prosthetic pieces
and the tools to create

this beautiful painting.

-That's a creepy idea, Greg.
-It is.

-I mean, you're at the airport
and you're thinking,

"There's a canvas.
There's a canvas."

-Oh, yeah. Trust me...
-[Laughs]

-...We've been at dinner, where
a waitress will come over

and she'll put our food down,
and we'll be like,

"She's be a great zombie."

She would be awesome.
[Laughter]

And a lot of people that are on
the show consequently have been

people that we would meet out at
a bar someplace and be like,

"Hey, you'd be a really good
zombie."

Cut to two weeks later,
they're in the makeup chair.

-They wanna be that zombie.
-Making them up as zombies.

-Alright, well,
we've already seen

three or four
of your iconic images.

I would imagine you guys were
planning these first few zombies

for the premiere episode
very carefully.

-Yeah.
-So you have

the little girl zombie.
-Yup.

-You have the snarling
old lady half-zombie.

-Mm-hmm.
-Do you give your zombies names?

-Yes. Well, she --
I named her Bicycle Girl,

only because
in the comic book --

and that's right out of
the comic book.

That's one of the key moments
that really sort of

defined the design of
the zombies.

The -- You know, the initial
comic book that was drawn

by Tony Moore, and then
Charlie Adlard took over,

I remember buying
that comic book in Austin,

at a comic book shop.
I was working with

Robert Rodriguez, and I bought
two of them.

-Yeah?
-Then I came back and I said,

"You gotta see these zombie
drawings. These are amazing."

Because the lips had pulled away
from the teeth,

it looked like -- like what
I always thought a zombie

would look like.
So when you look at

the first issue of
"The Walking Dead",

it's absolutely everything
that I always wanted to do.

So, when we started designing
that, I realized what I wanted

to do to translate the zombies
from the comic book

into the movie.
-So you're mostly --

mostly doing those images that
you originally saw in the comic.

-In the particular instance of
Bicycle Girl...

-Yeah.
-...We took what that concept

was in the comic book.
-Yeah.

-So we designed the teeth
and the contact lenses

and everything.
That was our inspiration.

-Right.
You also have the zombie carcass

on the floor of the hospital.
-Mm-hmmm.

-I don't know if that's a zombie
or just a dead person.

-Well, you know, it's funny
because...

-Is there a difference between
a zombie and a dead person

in your mind?
-Yes, because a zombie

will get up and move around.

If it's a dead person, it has to
have a head wound.

-Oh, OK.
-So then it won't get up

and move around.
-OK.

-So if you really look at
that shot of her,

her whole body's been chewed
away.

It's, like, basically gristle.

It's kind of, you know --
-Kind of like what we're eating

here, yeah?
-She probably tasted

like this tastes.
-[Laughs]

-But the face -- you know, the
face is relatively untouched.

So I had even talked to Frank at
one point about, like,

"We should do a zombie that
looks like her,

like, after Rick leaves
that hallway,

she gets up and starts
walking around,

but, like, her muscles have been
chewed on and stuff.

Those are the conversations we
have.

-OK, and then you have the
zombie walking down the street,

who's shot in the head by
Morgan...

-Yeah.
-...Played by Lennie James.

And then -- does that one have
a name?

-He does not.
-OK.

And then, of course,
you have that great crane shot

of all the dead bodies
swaddled in white --

might be zombies, I guess,
might not be zombies.

Probably just dead people.
-They're dead people,

Because otherwise, they'd be
thrashing around in their...

-And I guess that didn't require
that much makeup.

But, I mean, you said
makeup on --

-Those were dummies.

-OK.
-So we had been --

You know, my company, KNB
Effects, we've been in business

since the late '80s, so we have
done 800 movies,

and we have life casts of, like,
countless number of actors.

-Right.
-So, when "The Walking Dead",

when we shot that,
we were sort of, like,

"Well, we need 60 dummies
to just wrap in sheets

and put at the bottom of
the steps."

So we grabbed any dummies that
we had on the shelves.

So one of them is Bruce Willis.
-Oh, really?

-One of them's Brad Pitt.
-[Laughs]

-One of them was Johnny Depp.
Like, the people --

the crew people were walking
through, and at one point,

Frank went, "Hey, is that
Bruce Willis?"

And I'm like, "Yeah."
"Is that Brad Pitt?"

So it became sort of a game on
set to see what celebrity

dummy was being used --
because we never saw the faces

they just grabbed them.
-Yeah, that's great.

No, that's an amazing shot,
though, that tells us

kind of what kind of
nightmare world

that we've entered now.

And -- Now, when you make
a dead body for the show,

and the show is done with
the dead body,

do you take it home
and use it for Halloween?

Or what do you do with it?
-Oh, yeah.

-Yeah?
-As a matter of fact, last year

for Halloween, I put 12 spikes
in my front yard

and stuck zombie heads
on the spikes.

-Oh, I'm sure that amused
the neighbors.

-And the funniest thing
is there was a guy

driving by, and he slows down,
he goes,

"'Walking Dead' fan!"

And I'm like, "Yeah."
And he just kept going.

[Laughter]
He just assumed that I was a fan

of the show because I was
putting zombie heads

in my front yard.
-[Laughs] OK.

-It's kinda funny.
-How many dead bodies

are actually in your house?

-Um...

Right now, there's probably
about -- there's 6.

There's one that we use from
"Creepshow" --

So when people walk into
my house, they just assume

that -- you know, there's
a replica of Mother

from "Psycho" sitting in
my office.

-Oh, wow.
-There's a bunch of skeletons

upstairs that we used
in a "Creepshow" episode.

There's a lot of stuff
all over my house.

-Alright. Deputy Sheriff Rick
is confused and weak

and wounded, and he's now
in the custody

of a very suspicious man
whose son just planted a shovel

in his face,
thinking he was a zombie.

So let's get back to the
legendary premiere episode

of "The Walking Dead."

How many episodes
of "The Walking Dead"

have you actually directed?

-I wanna say 37.

-Wow.

-37 hours.
-Wow. A lot of shows

don't even last 37 episodes.
-Yeah.

And most of them,
like, I'm the grim reaper.

Like, I would -- I kill --
I've killed more people

on the show than the zombies.

-They bring you in for the kill?

-They bring me in for the big --
you know, like, the premieres,

the finales.
-So you are the person

who tugs on the sleeve of
the actor and says...

-That's... Yeah.
-"Hey, you know, we need you --

we need to have a meeting
for what we're going to do

with you next week."
-That's me.

-[Laughs]
-And by the way, you know,

you don't think when the actors,
when I call them,

they see my name, they're like,
"Decline."

'Cause they don't want me to be
the guy who's gonna call them.

I would call Melissa McBride,
like, during -- just to say hi

'cause we worked together on
"The Mist".

That's where I met Melissa,

and that's where Frank cast her,
in "The Mist".

So that's where he got to
know her.

And every -- for a while there,
every time I would call her,

she'd be like,
"Am I dying?

What do you want?"

Like, "No, I was just calling to
say hi."

And she's like,
"Uh-huh, uh-huh."

There was always a little bit
of that, like, "Hmm."

-You know it's gonna happen.
I mean --

I mean, if you're on the show,
you know it's gonna happen.

It's sort of, like --
It's sort of like being

Seinfeld's girlfriend.
You know?

You know you're not going to be
called back.

[Laughter]

-Well, but however, on our show,
they'll do a flashback...

-Oh, OK.
-...And then all of a sudden,

you know, Abraham will show up
again or, you know,

Sonequa Martin-Green will show
up again.

Like, the actors do end up
coming back, you know.

Rick's last episode that
I directed

where he was whisked off,
we had Scott Wilson back.

-OK.
-And, you know...

-Now, in addition to your
"Walking Dead" episodes,

how many "Creepshow" episodes
have you directed?

-Oh... [Buzzes lips]

I think 6.
6 or 8 of the 21.

-OK. See, I tricked you
into talking about "Creepshow".

-That was good.
Hey, you know, "Creepshow" airs

on Shudder.
-I know, it's on Shudder.

-Did you know that? And AMC+.

-Season 3, yeah.
-Like, you and I are, like,

you know, Shudder is right here.

If something bad were to happen,
then Shudder might be

a little in trouble.

[Laughter]

So let's make sure --
Oh, no! It's the ribs!

No. [Laughs]

-Great sequence

where Rick starts
to understand where he is,

thanks to Morgan and Duane

and their nightly visitation

by the thing that used to be
a wife and mother.

And so we start to see
that this show

is gonna go places
that most zombie movies avoid.

But, Greg, I wanna ask you.

When they look out the window

and they see those walkers
shambling around on the street

and you see that
for the first time,

that just summons up everything
we're already familiar with

from the Romero movies,
you know?

Those are definitely
Romero zombies.

Now, were you guys ever tempted
to change your zombie behavior

just to be -- just to get away

from the original, you know,
template that he created?

-You know, Frank and I talked
about that at the beginning.

And honestly, we ended up
having zombie school.

-I know! You founded
Zombie Boot Camp, right?

-I founded zombie school.

And when we did season one,
we didn't have a lot of

opportunities to show clips
from "The Walking Dead"

because we hadn't shot
the episodes yet,

so we had clips from
"Night of the Living Dead,"

and we showed the scene of
Bill Heinzman in the cemetery

chasing Barbra
when she gets into the car.

So we had always looked at
"Night of the Living Dead"

as sort of like gospel.

And so the intention
was to, without a doubt,

lean into that mythology,
especially because --

You gotta figure "Walking Dead"
came out after "28 Days Later,"

after Zack Snyder's
"Dawn of the Dead,"

where zombies
had been energized.

"28 Days Later" technically
isn't a zombie movie.

It's Infected.

But the truth of the matter was

a lot of filmmakers
had adrenalized zombies,

and we really wanted
to go back to the classic.

-Pull it back
to the classic zombie.

Well, as the guy who did found
the Zombie Boot Camp

there in Georgia to provide
the need for millions

of trained zombie actors
that you use,

what do you tell
aspiring zombies

when they show up
to join the show?

-Well, there are several rules,
you know?

And I think the first thing
I said --

And George and I used to
talk about this.

If someone can nickname
your zombie walk,

then you're doing it
too consistently.

Like, if you walk like this,
you're doing Frankenstein.

You don't drag the leg,
'cause you're the mummy.

You know, we used to have people
that would just stomp around,

and we would call them the

"get the hell out of my yard"
zombie.

We would give people names.
-Yeah.

-The analogy that I always used
to use, ironically, would be --

I would say
it's like a marionette.

Like, you don't have control
of your limbs.

If you see somebody walking out
of a bar at 2:00 in the morning,

they think they're
walking straight,

but they don't have control,

so they kind of weave
in and out a little bit.

So it's always
that really sort of lack --

-Walk like you're drunk?
-Yeah. Walk like you're drunk.

-That lack of ability

to, like,
raise your arms or move.

So there's kind of a slackness

to the shoulders
and the jaw and the head.

-Well, also,
since you're the guy

who has probably spent more time
thinking about zombie physiology

than anybody on the planet,

do you -- do you invent
a back story for the zombie

before you do his skin
and his wounds and his clothing?

I mean, actually, you don't have
many naked zombies.

They tend to keep
their clothes on, right?

-Yeah, we've done a few.
We've done a few naked zombies.

I think the S&P
is always a little nervous

about -- more about nudity
than about the violence.

-Yeah. But do you have
back stories?

-Yeah. Sometimes.

You know, what's interesting --
and you can really see it

all over this first episode
of "Walking Dead" --

is that the set dressing
and the blood and everything,

it does tell a story.

When Rick's going
through the hospital

the first time, you see
the bullet holes in the wall,

you see the smears of blood
everywhere.

It tells a story.

So when we were doing the
zombie makeups in season one,

the one thing
that was important to me

always was that you can't
apply blood with a brush

or, like,
a little squeeze bottle.

There has to be some violence
inherent in the way

the blood would spray up
onto the face.

So you'd see spatters of blood.

So your audience,
by seeing that, imagines,

oh, if somebody got bit here,
the blood sprayed.

So we did a lot
in the early onset of this show

to tell a story
with just how you put the blood

on the individual makeup.

We've done gags
where there was somebody

that had been stabbed and died

and then turned into a walker
and starts walking around.

And then in one episode,

Rick grabs the knife
out of the zombie

and stabs it in the head.

It's like a portable weapon.

-Yeah. Okay.
Well, let's look at --

let's look at the evolution
of the movie zombie.

We have examples.
All zombies are not alike.

And the first one we have here
is where it all started,

the classic "Night
of the Living Dead" style.

What kind of zombie was that?

-Well, we're gonna go through.

This is the Romero
original-trilogy look.

So, a guy named Christian Hanson
sculpted this bust,

and if you watch the original
"Night of the Living Dead,"

basically it was pale makeup

with, like, dark circles
around their eyes, you know?

If I'm not mistaken, like...
-Wasn't much gore.

-No, There wasn't much gore,
you know?

Marilyn Eastman
and Karl Hardman,

who were two of the investors
in George's company

and actors in the movie,

they were the ones
doing the makeup.

They were, like,
paling people out.

So there wasn't a lot of gore
in the original movie.

I mean, there was maybe a couple
little trickles of blood

here and there,
but not a lot of gore.

-So it was more in the
performance than in the look.

-Yes.
-And then we have the --

what's called the blue-faced
"Dawn of the Dead" style

from 10 years later, 1978.

-So, this is -- Tom Savini
designed this particular makeup.

This zombie was actually one
that you see on the poster.

The poster of "Dawn of the Dead"

came from this
particular zombie,

which they call
the airport zombie.

But now you get into a lot
of three-dimensional wounds.

And, you know, the thing
about Tom Savini was --

He was a big --

You know, loved Lon Chaney.
Big fan of Dick Smith.

You know, Tom was the guy
in Pittsburgh

and still -- you know,
to this day, still lives there.

So he was able to sort of

lead the forefront of the wave,

the new wave of makeup effects
with "Dawn of the Dead."

-Okay.
-So he and George

really sort of just got together

and came up
with these crazy gags.

And a lot of the interest
about it was that Tom

was like a magician.

So they would use misdirection.

They'd get a screwdriver,
and you see

the guy getting stabbed
in the ear with a screwdriver.

And then they'd cut, and
they'd take a half screwdriver

and put a silver straw on there,

and they'd pump blood
through it.

So there was
a lot of misdirection.

George gave Tom
a lot of freedom.

So, in "Dawn of the Dead,"
they kind of went with

that sort of blue/gray makeup,
but there was a lot more gore.

There was a lot more blood
and wounds and things like that.

-And then zombies
became higher-fidelity

in 1985 with "Day of the Dead."

Now, is this Bub the Zombie?
The famous Bub the Zombie?

-This is Bub.

This was sculpted by a guy
named John Vulich,

played by Howard Sherman.

The first thing that we did --
I was one of the first people

hired by Tom Savini
on the crew.

And we started making
generic dentures for everybody.

So every -- almost every single
hero zombie in that movie

has dentures
because we wanted to --

-You wouldn't have had dentures
in 1978?

-No dentures, no contact lenses.
-Okay.

-Nothing. This was just makeup.
-Okay.

-But then when we got into
"Day of the Dead,"

we started using dentures

and we made them generically,
and they -

Like, the teeth were kind of
all crooked and yellow,

and the gums were all gross.

And in a lot of instances,

because we had made them
generically,

if you put them into people,
it would push their lips out

and make them look
kind of strange.

But that was --
Every single zombie had,

in a lot of instances,

full facial prosthetics
that were covered.

It wasn't just like this one

where there's particular
little wounds here and there

and you see mostly
the actor's skin.

In "Day of the Dead,"

we really wanted
to push the envelope.

-So you're -- you're making
the zombies scarier

by making them more human.

-Well, we're making them
look more rotted

and more desiccated.

One of the things that's
always frightening is just,

you know, seeing that --
that things are decomposing.

It's just like -- It just looks
kind of nasty and gross.

-'Cause you're really --
'Cause subconsciously

you're thinking,
"someday, that'll be me."

-Yeah, yeah. That's
a very, very true statement

that George used to talk about
all the time,

was that
that's what we all become.

-Yeah.
So, can -- can you sum up

what's going on in the history
of zombie anatomy?

Is there -- Is there
an overriding philosophy

of how it should be done?

-Well, you know,
the overriding philosophy

is the more horrific
you want it to look,

you can add more blood,
because blood always has

an inherent shock value
when you see it.

But as these progress
technically,

they're visually
more interesting-looking

because you can see
the wrinkled skin

and you can see
the sunken-in eyes

and the cheekbones and stuff.

So there is definitely
an evolution.

Then once we hit "Walking Dead,"
it was dentures, contact lenses,

and we've sort of
continued to even,

you know, refine the process
even more.

-Right.
Do you guys sit around and go,

"Hey! You know what would be
really, really gross?"...

-Yeah.

-...and then try
to achieve that?

-Yeah, and, by the way,
the greatest

is when you're at a restaurant

and there's a table next to you
that doesn't know,

you know,
what you're talking about.

I worked on a movie once,

and I was sitting
with the director,

and there was a scene where
they -- a person gets killed

and they chop the body up
into pieces

and put it
in the trunk of a car.

And I'm sitting there
at The Daily Grill

in Los Angeles
with the director.

I'm like, "Okay. So how do you
want to kill this person?"

He's like, "I think an ax."
And I was like, "Okay.

So once we kill the person,
do they --

do you want to use
the ax to dismember the body?

And then where do we put it?"

And I look next to me,
and there's an old woman like...

[Laughter]

Like, there's slow-motion
food falling out.

I'm like -- They literally
thought that we were

planning a real murder.
-Oh, well.

Well, Greg, you were
actually responsible

for two gross-out effects
that get to me

every time that I watch them.

And, oddly enough,
they're not even that bloody.

We haven't talked
about your career very much,

probably because
we don't need to.

Our audience
is very familiar with you.

But actually
we talked a lot about you

when we were showing
"Bride of Re-Animator."

I don't know
if you saw that episode.

But you also did the effects
on "Green Mile," "Vanilla Sky,"

"Land of the Dead,
"Scream, "Pulp Fiction,"

"Transformers," "Sin City."

"Evil Dead II."
-Yeah.

-You won an Oscar
for "Chronicles of Narnia."

-We did. Our company won.

-Yeah.
You've worked with Spielberg.

You've worked
with John Carpenter.

You've worked with Wes Craven.

You've worked with Ridley Scott.
You worked with Rodriguez.

You're the go-to guy
for Quentin Tarantino.

I think he onlyworks
with you, right?

-Mm-hmm.
-But I'm gonna have you guess.

There must be people
who come up to you and say,

"Man alive, Greg. That effect
was just too intense."

And are there certain scenes

that people are normally
referring to when they say that?

-Yes.
-Okay.

-One scene
is in Scorsese's "Casino,"

where we -- Joe Pesci puts
a guy's head in a vise.

-Right! Oh, God, yes.
-And crushes the head.

And as he crushes the head,
the eyeball, pfft, pops out.

-Yeah. Okay.

-And I have had people walk out,
walk out of the theater.

And even in reviews,
they'll talk about it.

"Oh, they just went too far.

That's too much."
That's too much."

-But let me tell you my two.
-Okay.

-The first one
is when Kathy Bates

takes the sledgehammer to
James Caan's ankles in "Misery."

I don't know --
I don't know what you --

what I saw
or what I thought I saw.

But, you know, I just cringe.
I can't --

There are very few times
when I turn my eyes away,

but I turn my eyes away.

And then the second one
is cutting off the ear...

-"Reservoir Dogs."
-...in "Reservoir Dogs."

-That one I get a lot, too.

Well, here.
I have a great story.

So, when we did "Misery,"
we cast James Caan's legs,

and then we made gelatin legs
with breakable ankles

and then punched
all the hair in.

And I remember they broke for
lunch, and they're like, "Okay,

so, you guys --
We're gonna break for lunch.

Get the legs rigged up

'cause we're gonna
break them after lunch."

So, there were two holes
in the bed,

so his legs went through holes
in the bed,

and we attached the fake legs
'cause there was,

you know, blankets
and things covering stuff,

and they were all bandaged up.

So, Rob Reiner
came back from lunch,

and the first assistant director
was like,

"What are you guys doing?
You're supposed to be around."

Like, "Well, those
are the fake legs."

'Cause they couldn't
tell the difference.

So, we had a cable --

So, the leg was secured
on the bed,

and then we could pull
the ankle with the cable.

Ckk! And that would --
that would do that.

So, we go to the cast/crew
screening.

And I'm sitting in the theater,

and Rob Reiner's sitting
right in front of me.

And I had a friend with me.
And I said, "Just do me a favor.

Don't embarrass me.
Don't scream."

'Cause this is -- It's --

I was like, "Rob Reiner's there.

Don't scream
in Rob Reiner's ear."

So, Kathy Bates lifts
the sledgehammer,

and she says, "God, I love you."

And the sledgehammer goes up.
She screams bloody murder.

And, like, everything
went into slow motion,

and I saw every head
in the movie theater go...

[Gasps] And recoil.

And then you see the first one,

and then you don't even see
the second ankle.

We shot it. We built both.
But you never even see it.

So, we walk out of the theater,

and Rob stops me, and he said,

"I've never felt the oxygen

disappear from a room
in my entire career."

-Was that the first time
it was shown?

-It was the cast/crew
screening.

So, like, it was the first time
that he had been in a room

with, you know, 300 people.

-Wow.
-And then with "Reservoir Dogs,"

you know, the thing
that nobody realizes

is you never see
the ear cut off.

You never physically see Mike...

The camera pans away.

And then Mike Madsen walks
into the shot holding the ear.

-Okay.
-But every single person

is convinced that they saw it.

-There must be a sound effect
or something

'cause I just get chills,

and I never look away
from the screen.

And I wouldn't know anyway
'cause I do look away

from the screen when that's on.

So, all right.

Well -- So you're a cruel man,
Greg, and we love that.

So let's get back
to the premiere episode

of "The Walking Dead."
Roll the film.

Have you watched
every zombie movie ever made?

-I've seen probably 98%
of the zombie movies.

Like, even newer stuff. You
know, "Train to Busan," I love.

There's a great zombie series
called "Kingdom"

that's set in feudal China.

I'm always curious that --
people that continue

to make installments
into the zombie universe

and what their take on it is.
-Right.

-Because it's in my blood,
I guess.

-Right, right, right.

Do you think Mads Bellamy
was brilliant in White Zombie?

[Laughter]

-I would say yes.

-Okay. Can we quickly
go to the makeup-room cam?

-Oh, yeah.
-All right.

Did you set something up
in there?

-Yeah.
-All right.

Darcy, can you hear me?
How's it going in there?

-Great.

-Greg thinks Madge Bellamy
is a superstar!

-That's what you wanted
to tell me?

-Yeah. And a message for Carey.

More open wounds! Okay, Carey?

-Sounds good.

-I don't think they can hear me.

[Laughter]

[Hinges creak]

-Rick: Are we sure
they're dead?

I have to ask
at least one more time.

-Morgan: They dead,

except for something
in the brain.

That's why it's
got to be the head.

-[Hisses]

[Growling]

[Grunting]

-You all right?

-[Breathing shakily]

Need a moment.

-They're alive --
my wife and son.

At least they were
when they left.

-How can you know?

By the look of this place,
they --

-I found empty drawers
in the bedroom.

They packed some clothes --
not a lot,

but enough to travel.

-You know anybody
could've broken in here

and stole them clothes, right?

-You see the framed photos
on the walls?

Neither do I.

Some random thief
take those, too, you think?

Our photo albums,
family pictures -- all gone.

-Photo albums. [Laughs]

My wife -- same thing.

There I am
packing survival gear,

she's grabbing photo alb--

-They're in Atlanta, I bet.

-That's right.

-Why there?
-Morgan: Refugee center.

A huge one they said,
before the broadcast stopped.

Military protection,
food, shelter.

They told people to go there,
said it'd be safest.

-Duane: Plus they got
that disease place.

-The Center
for Disease Control.

Said they were working out
how to solve this thing.

[Lock clicks]

-Gas lines have been down
for maybe a month.

-Station's got
its own propane system.

Pilot's still on.

-Whoo-hoo!
-Oh, my Lord!

-Hot water!
-Ah!

That feels good, right?

-[Laughs]
-♪ Bring it around, bring it ♪

♪ Bring it, bring it,
bring it around, uh! ♪

Yeah. I'm wet.
Take that. What? Whoo!

-Duane.

Dressing room back there.

-What you say, Duane?

-Thank you.

-Mm-hmm.

-Atlanta sounds like
a good deal.

Safer anyway. People.

-That's where we were headed.
Things got crazy.

Man, you wouldn't believe
the panic.

Streets weren't fit to be on.

And then...

My wife couldn't travel,
not with our herd,

so we had to find a place
to lay low.

And then after she died...

we just stayed hunkered down.

I guess we just froze in place.

-Plan to move on?

-Haven't worked up to it yet.

-A lot of it's gone missing.

-Daddy, can I learn to shoot?
I'm old enough.

-Hell yes, you're gonna learn.

But we gotta do it carefully,
teach you to respect the weapon.

-That's right. It's not a toy.

You pull the trigger,
you have to mean it.

Always remember that, Duane.
-Yes, sir.

-Here.

Load up.

-You take that one.
Nothing fancy.

The scope's accurate.

Conserve your ammo.

Goes faster than you think,
especially at target practice.

-Duane.
-Uh-huh?

-Take this to the car.
-Okay.

-Are you sure
you won't come along?

-A few more days.

By then,
Duane will know how to shoot,

and I won't be so rusty.

[Walkie-talkie clicks, whines]

-You've got one battery.

I'll turn mine on a few minutes
every day at dawn.

You get up there,
that's how you'll find me.

-You think ahead.
-Can't afford not to.

Not anymore.
-Morgan: Listen. One thing.

They may not seem
like much one at a time,

but in a group,
all riled up and hungry --

Man, you watch your ass.
-You too.

-You're a good man, Rick.

I hope you find
your wife and son.

-Be seeing you, Duane.

Take care of your old man.
-Yes, sir.

[Walker snarling]

-Leon Basset?

Didn't think much of him --

careless and dumb -- but...

I can't leave him like this.

-[Growls]

-You know they'll hear the shot.

-Let's not be here
when they show up.

-Let's go, son. Come on.

-So, Greg, you just told me

that this is your favorite part
of the premiere episode,

where Rick goes back
to the half-woman in the park

and Morgan is trying to --

He's trying to do euthanasia
on his wife.

But he can't --
He can't bring himself to do it.

And they're intercutting
between those two things.

Show me -- This is --
We have here your work

on what's called
the Bicycle Girl,

which is the -- which is the
zombie that was shot by Rick.

Explain the -- the process
that you were using here.

-So, this was one of the things
that was most important to us

to sort of delineate our zombies
from -- from other zombies.

So, this is a live cast
of the actress.

This is a girl named
Melissa Cowan,

so this is what her face
looked like.

And then this is the sculpture

that was done by a sculptor
named Jaremy Aiello.

So, what we did was we actually
made the teeth first,

and the teeth fit
overtop of the lips.

So you can see
from the sculpture,

we were able to pull the lips
away from the teeth,

which I think
is kind of a signature

"Walking Dead" look.

Now, even though technically
it's only been six weeks

since the zombie apocalypse
happened in the show,

since she was in the sun,

lying in this park
for six weeks,

we went with this sort of,
like, rotten-pumpkin texture

where she was just getting beat
by the sun.

That's why -- That's why
we have all the decomposition.

And then the last --
the last bust on the corner

is what the end result
looked like.

So, she had dentures in.

We did the prosthetic
makeup on her face.

She had contact lenses.

And there was four of us.

It was two hours
to do her whole body.

-And so you kind of sculpted
all this around her face?

-Yeah. This is what
we started with.

And then we had a chest piece.

And originally
what we were gonna do

is we were gonna
dig a hole in the ground

and we were gonna hide her legs.

And so we had the prosthetic
piece, like an old magic trick,

that would look like
that's where her legs were.

And during
the production meeting,

Greg Melton,
the production designer, said,

"Well, you can't dig a hole in
the ground. It's a public park."

So we ended up
modifying the prosthetic,

and she wore green leggings,

and the visual-effects people
erased her legs.

-Oh, okay.
-But interestingly enough,

when "The Walking Dead"
was being promoted by AMC,

the first picture that was ever
released was a photo of her.

-Well, I think everyone
remembers that moment

and I think mostly
because of the compassion

that you see in Rick saying,

"I'm sorry
this happened to you."

You know, what I like about
Andrew Lincoln's performance

as Rick is how controlled it is.

He has that one moment

where he slaps himself
in the head,

you know, but it passes
'cause he's a cop.

He's -- He's trained
to do one task at a time.

So Rick is headed
into the new world.

Morgan is still tied
to the old world.

He can't put his wife down.

You know, he's still making sure
his son says "thank you"

and is polite to everyone,
and he's still --

They're still saying a prayer
every night.

They're still thinking
there's some way to go back

to the way the world used to be.

And every time
a zombie gets killed,

for whatever reason,
it's kind of a release.

It's kind of an emotional
safety valve for everyone.

And, Greg, I have to say
one thing you do

in quite a few episodes

is you use those rifles
with scopes on them.

So, you get the zombies
in the crosshairs,

and they shoot them
in the head.

And there's no cutaway.
There's no edit.

You apparently
have actors out there

with exploded heads
or something.

So -- [ Laughs ]
How do you do that?

-There's a -- There's
a great rig that we built

that is sort of like a little
funnel that we fill with blood,

and then it's hidden
in their wardrobe

or in their clothes
behind them.

So, in that particular scope
shot, the performer walks in,

and he's got a tube
sort of dragging out

the bottom of his pant leg
that you can't see

because we wanted
that explosive vibe.

So, we didn't want
to put a squib on them.

I mean, you could have
just put a squib there

and blown the squib up.

-But it looks like the head,
like, flies apart.

-Yeah. Well, we built --

we built multiple versions
of these particular --

these particular gags.

And some of them,
it's compressed air.

You just fill a fake head,

you pre-score it,
and you cut it apart,

and then you close it back up,
and there's a tube in there,

and you hit a button, and then
it just blows it to pieces.

-Okay. Well, we're about to see
the concluding set piece,

which is a famous sequence
in which Rick rides into Atlanta

on a horse and proceeds
to fend off hundreds of walkers.

Now, how --
how many are on your crew

when you have a huge zombie
attack scene like that?

-I think we had --
There were 200 people

when we shot that scene.

We had 200 people in makeup.

We had a few
background zombie masks,

but most of it
was people in makeup.

So, I think I had
11 makeup artists,

and when we shot
the first season,

we were shooting
on a shifted schedule.

So we would shoot
Wednesday, Thursday,

Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

So, on the weekends, they would
close sections of Atlanta down,

and then they would bring
the tank in

and they would dress it
to make it look like

it had been abandoned.

So we would shoot --
Saturdays and Sundays

would be our big zombie days.

-And so you have 11 people
running around, you know.

"More blood on this zombie.
More..."

You know, "Come over here.

This zombie's losing
his prosthetic or whatever."

-Yeah.
-All day long?

-I think we would --
we would get home from work

at about 10:00 at night,
and then at 4:00 a.m.,

we would go back
and start it all over again

because it would take
a good amount of time

to get all those people
through makeup.

And then when the crew wraps
and everybody goes home,

you got to clean
all those people up.

-And have all 200
of those people

been through zombie school?
-Yeah.

-Okay. So they know what they
can do and what they can't do.

-We had to even think
about stuff like --

There were a few people
that were barefoot.

We had to put neoprene
on the bottoms of their feet

because the concrete was so hot

that they were
burning their feet.

Or if somebody fell
on the ground, you know --

At the end of --
At the end of season one,

when they get to the CDC

and they find all the --

There's 200 dead bodies.
We had people lying there.

We had to put reflective, like,
sun blankets underneath them

because the ground was so hot.

Because it was -- it was,
you know, July in Georgia.

-In Georgia. All right, Greg,

I want you to come back
for our second feature,

which is episode two
of "The Walking Dead."

How many episodes are there?
You remember?

-I think we're around 150.

-Okay.

Somebody did a calculation
of how long it would take you

to binge-watch
"The Walking Dead"

if you didn't go to sleep.

5 days, 11 hours.

And see?

Here's the dangerous thing
of me talking about this.

Now that I said that --
-Somebody'll do it.

-I shouldn't have said that
because we have

such weird fans of this show,

that some guy in the panhandle
of Texas went, "Hell, yes!

I know how I'm spending
next week!"

You know? Because --

"Hey, Cletus, you know,
how much Ritalin and Adderall

can you get me from
over in North Lubbock?"

Is there any --
Is there any episode of the show

that you have not worked on

over the past 11 years
of doing the show?

-No.
-You've worked on every show.

-I've been in the trenches.
I've been down in Georgia.

You know, I haven't been on set
for every single day

because a lot of times, like,
if I'm directing, I'm not on --

If I'm in prep, I'm not on set
for that episode that's shooting

and then I go to L.A. and edit.

But in terms of
my day-to-day involvement,

you know,
I am proud of what we've done

and what we continue to do
on the show.

And if there is somebody that's
going to watch all episodes

for five days,

you need a time-lapse camera
in there someplace to just --

watch them turn into whatever
they're gonna turn in.

-Oh, yeah, we want to see that.
Yes. Send that in.

All right. Well, I know you have
important phone calls to make

because we're in the middle of
the third season of "Creepshow,"

so you're getting all kinds
of accolades for "Creepshow."

What would it take
to get Andrew Lincoln

for an episode of "Creepshow"?

-Andrew was down, actually.

We shot an episode
for season two,

which became our holiday special

called
"Shapeshifters Anonymous,"

and it was about
a support group for people

that turn into werewolves
or animals or creatures.

And it's -- it's really
a completely outrageous

and super-fun episode,

and he was going to play
Evil Santa Claus.

Yeah?
-And he was down to do it.

And then this kind of world
sort of

took a little bit of a left turn
for a while,

and he couldn't travel
at that particular time.

And then, you know,

we had actually talked
to Michael Cudlitz

because Michael Cudlitz
was going to do it,

and then he got cast
in "Clarice."

So, you know, it's --

And then, of course, I --
You know, I mean, like --

Jeffrey Dean Morgan is --
And Norman are always like,

"Hey. Wait a minute.
Why don't you --

Why don't you put me
in an episode of 'Creepshow'?"

And Michael Rooker stars
in a season-three episode.

Did an amazing job.

So, you know, I got my
"Walking Dead" peeps.

-All right. All right.

Well, it's time now
for the gripping,

stunning, flesh-eating
conclusion

of "The Walking Dead"
premiere episode.

So roll it.

And I want to ask you,

since you're always in the --

Since you're always
in the writers' room, I assume,

for the series now.

-Not lately, no.
-No? No?

But you have been
in the writers' room, right?

-Yes.
-All right.

Well, I came up
with three principles

that seem to always be true
for a "Walking Dead" episode.

Tell me if I'm on target.

Numero uno,

doing the right thing
always endangers your life.

-Yes.
-Yeah?

Numero two-oh, being selfless
and making sacrifices

is almost never rewarded.

-Yes.
-Yes.

And three, God is absent.

[Laughter]

-Um...

You know, there --
there have been moments,

like when they discover
the prison.

There have been moments
of clarity

where things have worked out
for our group.

-Yeah, but usually
when they talk about God,

it's a delusion, right?
-Yeah.

-I mean, I'm thinking about --
there's this Isaac Singer story

where the inmates in a Nazi
concentration camp hold a trial.

They put God on trial,
and they find him guilty.

-Hm.
-It's a brutal, brutal show,

and it's kind of
that same feeling, you know?

And yet the whole world
loves it.

-Oh, yeah. The sequence
that has been reproduced

more times than just about
any other.

First, that shot of Rick
on the horse

riding down the Interstate

towards an apparently empty
Atlanta

with hundreds of abandoned cars
on the other side of the median.

And then that last crane shot
with one zombie horde

swarming over the tank

and another zombie horde
devouring that horse.

Normally I would go
to Darcy right now

for the animal-rights issues
involved here,

but she's still ensconced
in the makeup room,

getting properly zombified
by rock-star

special-effects guy Carey Jones.

So can we go to the remote cam?
Can I talk to her?

-Yeah, yeah.

-Darcy! I have no mail.

-No, you do have mail.

I loved it in the rooster
letter holder thingy.

-Oh. This thing?

Oh, okay. Thanks.

And looking really nasty,
by the way.

And, Carey, you can go
as nasty as you want.

-We're getting pretty nasty.

-All right. Let me see there.

This letter poured in from...

Brian Cunningham
of Louisville, Kentucky.

"Hi, Joe Bob and Austin."

You know -- Austin.
Nobody writes to me anymore.

They read to Darcy,
they write to Yuki,

now they're writing to you also.

All right.

"This is Brian Cunningham.
one of the filmmakers

behind "Loss Prevention,"

which screened
at the Jamboree."

"Loss Prevention" is a wonderful

micro-budget feature
that premiered at Mutant Fest,

which was part of
Joe Bob's Drive-In Jamboree

at the Mahoning Drive-In
in Pennsylvania back in July.

So find it. Watch it!

One of the scariest villains

I have ever seen on film
in that movie.

"I just wanted
to send you both a note

and thank you again
for the awesome experience

of showing the movie
and everything surrounding it.

I've been making movies
for 10 years

and have gone
to a lot of festivals,

but none of them have ever
made me feel as valued

or as welcomed as you guys did.

And all this while you juggled
the impending doom of hurricanes

and floods
and technical carnage.

Austin, thank--"
-[Laughter]

"Austin, thank you so much
for helping me

troubleshoot
our technical issues

and taking the time
to sit down and check discs

to make sure
everything worked.

And thanks for
the constant communication

and for helping us
figure out travel logistics

to be able to make it.

This is the first time
any festival

has put us up in a hotel,
and it really meant a lot

and kept us from
trying to drive 10 hours

after the longest day
in recent memory."

Aren't you a saint, Austin?

Half the letter's about you.
Okay.

"Joe Bob, thank you for
putting on an event like this

where average
unconnected filmmakers

have a shot
at getting their work seen.

Thank you for
the zero submission fees

so nobody had to break the bank,

and thanks for taking the time
to introduce the films

and spend some time
talking with the filmmakers.

I grew up watching you
on Showtime,

and I am a huge fan
of 'The Last Drive-In.'

I love the communal experience
of making and watching movies,

and when it comes to celebrating
the pure joy of movies

of all shapes and sizes,
you're the only game in town,

so thank you for continuing
to do what you do.

If you guys ever need a movie
to show

or a writer or director
for hire,

please let me know
if I can help.

After five movies
over ten years,

the Jamboree has helped
reinvigorate my passion

for an industry
that seems tailor-made

to discourage people,
and for that,

I am deeply grateful
to you and your entire team.

Thank you again.
Can't wait for the next one.

Brian. Louisville, Kentucky.

P.S. -- Also, please
pass this along to Darcy,

as I don't have her address.

Her kind words about the movie

and her constant support
of the community on Twitter

are amazing."

Okay, well,
that's what Mutant Fest

is all about -- trying to take
these great storytellers

with the tiny budgets
out in the Heartland

and give them some exposure.

So thank you, Brian.
And all right.

We're gonna show another episode

of "The Walking Dead"
after the break.

And, of course, we'll have
the big Zombie Darcy reveal.

So stick with us.

And in the meantime,
I'm Joe Bob Briggs

reminding you
to never ask a barber

if he thinks you need a haircut.

And The Drive-In will never die.

It's a little creepy to think
that there are people watching

this who have no idea who we are
because it makes --

I've been thinking
about it all night.

[Laughing] It makes me realize
how strange our show is.

You guys heard the one
about the two cannibals

who were eating a clown?

One cannibal says
to the other cannibal,

"Does this taste funny to you?"

[Laughter]

Two cannibals sitting by a fire.

The first cannibal says,
"I hate my mother-in-law."

Second cannibal says,
"So try the potatoes."

[Laughter]

See, that's the difference
between us and "Walking Dead."

There is no subtext here.

[ Laughs ]
There's no larger context.

You know?

A man gets captured
by cannibals.

Every day,
they poke him with spears

and use his blood
to wash down their food.

So, finally, the guy calls
the chief over, and he says,

"You know, you can kill me
and you can eat me,

but I'm tired of
getting stuck for drinks."

[Laughter]
