The Robot Chicken Walking Dead Special: DVD Review

The Robot Chicken Walking Dead Special: DVD Review

Released by Madman Home Ent

Over 22 madcap minutes, the sketch show silliness turns its attention to the AMC series The Walking Dead.

Using the real cast members and some licensed tomfoolery benefits the parade of sketches quite well. as it rolls along key moments from the first seven years and pushes them through the parody prism.

The good thing about The Robot Chicken Walking Dead Special is that if you're not chuckling at one sketch, they end pretty quickly. Gathering the talent to voice the characters is also a great touch, be it Jeffrey Dean Morgan revealing how Negan got his red scarf, or Rick Grimes's Andrew Lincoln just sending up his seriousness, it works well.

To be fair, if you're not a fan of the show, it'll go over your heard, but frankly, if that's the case, you really shouldn't be watching this anyway.

Whilst it's only 22 minutes long, and makes you question if it's fully worth it, there are enough hearty laughs for fans of the Robert Kirkman Walking Dead comics to amuse.

It's better than a visit from Lucille, put it that way.
