Zombies, Christopher Walken, and "More cowbell!" of course

[sdouglas7 · 10/10 · 20 December 2012]

The makers of this 2:34 min. video successfully tap into two pop culture phenomenons: "The Walking Dead" TV series and actor Christopher Walken quotes. Creative, entertaining, and well-done, Creator/Director Ryan Hunter ingeniously taps into the cultural zeitgeist combining end-of-the-world zombie themes with Walken's distinctive speech and delivery patterns utilizing both well-known and obscure quotes from various movies and TV appearances in which Walken has played. The most famous quote repeated throughout this video incorporates Walken's SNL "I need more cowbell" plaint. Unlike many video shorts which are poorly done and amateurish, this short is well-acted and well-executed, and has all the marks of professional filmmaking. Welcome to the Walken Zombie Apocalypse.
