    Lost Tapes: Zombies

    Hey,
    Anyone checked out the weekly sorta Blair-Witch/Diary-type episodes of the show on Animal Planet, Lost Tapes? The first season was a little iffy in places, but showed definite promise as some of the episodes were gold.

    Anyways, the new season just started, and one of the new episodes features our favorite undead. The episode always includes one of the characters or some camera in the environment recording the festivities. In this case, some law-enforcement types were looking for this violent homeless guy, and stumbled into a rundown tenement building crawling with zombies.

    For being lowish-budget, they did an EXCELLENT job portraying how modern law enforcement might react to zombies still fresh enough to be mistaken for human.

    In any case, was really good stuff. You can prolly find it on their webpage at LostTapes.com , and the show plays on Animal Planet.

    I watched it last night. They did the voodoo type combo'd with the infection type zombie and even had Max Brooks comment in certain spots. I did like it and would buy that episode just to have.

    It was actually pretty good. I didn't expect much from it and it really suprised me how well they did with the limited budget they had. It seems like they defintiely put some thought into the process.

    Is the official site but I didn't try to view it there. I'm not sure if it's on youtube yet. Yeah the site only shows the first 3 minutes of it. Sorry I just tried to view it.

    ^^^

    Because most of the episodes are about cryptids like, Bigfoot, Nessie, Chupacabra, and etc.

    I've seen a coupe of these Lost Tapes episodes and they didn't do much for me. I'll give it another chance with the zombie episode though.

    "lost tapes" is a relatively cool show and can be creepier than some "horror" flicks. also, It never ends well for the people involved and that has somewhat endeared it to me.
