Hell yeah, I'm excited... hide show
This show is balls on the wall awesome. the things they get away with on television puts the US to shame. I felt that it had more kinship to the original "Dawn of the Dead" than anything else. Each episode is broken down into 5 10-minute parts. Channel 4 have done a great job making something original for a TV audience, i can honestly say i have not seen any original "horror" programming this good on TV before. Gory zombies on British telly! Charlie Brooker's genius mind! Reality TV contestants getting ripped to shreds! I eagerly anticpate this in the absence of any undead outbreak occuring on EastEnders.
my teacher strongly warned me against this series...but i am so glad i didnt listen to him. it was gore galore and absolutely amazing. the make up and blood and guts was brilliant and very believable. i thought it was really sad when davina was bitten and also when the blonde lady - i forget her name - had to be killed with an axe because she was bitten trying to release the gate for the boat to go through for escape. i think that the age rate of 18 is stupidly over the top and it is amazing for anyone who loves blood and gore.
A zombie dystopia that bites with action, suspense and a whole lot of gore! hide show
I thought that dead set has a new look at the world on how reality and a world of Tv can collide.
I thought that the programme was a slight bit repetitive in some ways especially with the disillusioned cops gone crazy, thats been in everything. Although I give the highest honor to the special effects and graphics in the horror, I thought that the make-up was brilliant and the blood and gore at its highest mark. Brooker if you read this you have made a masterpiece, expected to be boring and unoriginal you showed that Davina can be one hell of a Zombie and that when the world is full of zombies there are no happy endings.
It's just such an excellent idea - Big Brother Reality Show meets Resident Evil Video Game and the fun begins. hide show
If you're expecting a comedy show with belly laughs and canned laughter soundtrack then go elsewhere. The humour is dark and somewhat subtle. Although it's a spoof, it doesn't "slap you in the face" with it in the way Airplane! or Loaded Weapon does. I'm biased though. This suited me because I've utterly refused to watch any of the last 3 series of Big Brother. It has just seemed like more "Car Crash" TV to me and I'd got thoroughly fed up with it. When I thought it was a study in interaction and communication between a disparate group of people put into unusual circumstances I managed to get something out of it. Once it became a pathway for no-rated, no-talented nobodies to become rich celebrities I switched off. Dead Set, although scripted, takes the premis back to the beginning. We watch a group of people pushed together by one thing (the show) having to deal with something far larger (the ordeal).
The Horror FX are excellent. Davina is really funny (because of the situation not because she's been scripted with funny lines). The camera work is great and at times it works just like Resident Evil (and its sequels) did. Namely, making the horror experience a good one. The introduction suggestion to watch it on widescreen with surround sound and in the dark is probably just right.
this show is awesome!!
i was glued to my tv for the whole time for all the episodes so far

WOW WICKED !
its been a while since a show actually got me to sit up straight on my couch!!
its a grate idea and its acted really well so much better than many American shows out there well done UK its fast-paced, nerve-racking and thrilling
good combination, it does not feel like another boring zombie movie, maybe cos its not a movie but thumbs up from me !!!
i hope that this show is a start to many more recurring horror series as there are none yet, instead of making stuff like saw 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 or friday the thirteen 456 etc etc, just make them a seasonal tv show!
