Z nation review

Zombie media fits a certain mold of the gritty, everyone-dies survival story where doom and gloom is the norm. Its diversity among characters is something not often seen among most zombie media and brings a refreshing take to the genre that one may not expect from a show on the Syfy network, nevertheless that utilizes humor in the way that it does. The show takes the audience right into the action. Unwilling prisoners are dragged into a lab testing area. The first two batches of the cure fail; as the lab is overrun by zombies, the last man is given the dose and is ripped apart as the zombies flood into the testing lab. The audience is then taken to a group of survivors over at Camp Blue Sky a year after the lab incident took place. Before the camp is overrun, they find a soldier escorting a man named Alvin Murphy. Murphy is the man from the lab who was attacked after receiving the cure — he survived, meaning that the cure he was administered worked. The biggest problem is that Murphy wants no part in being the savior of the human race.

Unlike other shows, where you are there at the beginning of the zombie outbreak, Z Nation throws us in at a point 3 years after the virus has devastated America. A group of survivors stumble upon the only person — Murphy — to have survived a zombie bite, and in a desperate attempt to save the remaining members of humanity they find that they must travel from New York to California to deliver Murphy to the last functioning viral lab, in order to develop a cure from his blood. Murphy, however, harbours a lot of secrets, that will end up biting them all in the arse. We have Roberta Warren, who, apart from Murphy, is the main character in this show.

By Brian Lowry. Along the way, the show serves up one doozy of a twist, and otherwise a lot of slavering, mindless flesh-eaters chasing our intrepid heroes. Unwilling to waste even a minute on plot or story, the whole zombie apocalypse thing is tossed off in roughly 30 seconds. The show also seems determined to demonstrate the ruthlessness of this A.

Z Nation is fun zombie fiction. It never hits the dramatic highs of its competition but it manages to have a lot more fun with a concept that is inherently ridiculous to begin with.

Smith, and Shogun, plus the final season of Curb Your Enthusiasm and more. Every now and then there is a bad word. My favourite is Doc, hands down.

Characters are diverse to keep interest, but aren't forced. Definitely worth the watch if you like horror and gore and interesting. It's not rubbish and it's not excellent either.
