Definitely looking forward to this in series form...Please don't let it go. Amazing work, Sounds, Sets, Cinematography....give us more. I could only imagine what you could pull off if you were able to hire a cast and crew...this is crazy good for a one man demo......the other reviewer was correct....YOU SHOULD BE DIRECTING "The Walking Dead" series before it gets any worse and these TWD spin-off's...all bubble gum and lollipops!

I cannot wait to see where this production teaser goes. This is top quality work with a captivating and original thesis and frightening from the very start...I love the take on Walkers...not just mindless eating machines...that premise has been played out....Drawn to life, even in death is compelling and the use of light imagery to emphasize being drawn to light in death is brilliant, even for Z's.

I cannot find the pilot episode any longer online, just some demo clips...can you direct us to a link to view it again? Thanks much! A Fan.

The footage looks awesome for a low budget indie project....any chance of getting a link to view the pilot? I am a die hard Walker fan and have head it up to my neck in bad Apocalyptic TV, spin-off's and all. I am definitely looking forward to a new show to follow, especially one that looks as creepy as this....finally someone is getting it right!

I am a huge Dead fan, but am tired of formulaic storylines, centered around lifeless communities filled with nothing but central casting extras....if the current global pandemic has taught us anything, it is that when push comes to shove, people look out for themselves. I am drawn to a dark storyline centered around truth, loss, and individuality above all in survival....primitive. I can't wait to see this project in development...a one man cast/crew pulling this quality off under the worst of circumstances is quite impressive. This series is going to be HUGE!

Looks and Sounds amazing!!! Let us know when the series launches or the show website "thedeadwake,com" goes live....looking forward to this one for sure!

The Z costume shown in the demo clips is as good as anything on TWD...very creepy. Not the cheesy makeup seen on most Z productions...this show os going to Kick A**! I really love your take on Z's...not the typical mindless groaning we usually see. Can't wait for this to hit the streaming platforms full force! YES!

I am impressed with the overall quality of what we can see so far in this production, particularly the set work. I wonder how much time and effort the film maker Mr. Russell put into these sets. As a professional in the industry, it appears that a full crew pulled this off. If that is not the case, Wow! I really like how the pipes are used as a focal point to draw the camera forward throughout the spaces and the use of light, as in afterlife accounts, to draw the Z towards life is a brilliant take on life after death. Like others, I look forward to seeing where this goes once fully developed.

Nice job, man! Congrats. Can you launch the film website with more info so want to be fans can follow its progress, trailers, series footage, episodes, etc. I look forward to following your story.

I just finished watching the latest Walking Dead spinoff...the world beyond...God awful! Great job on this pre-production short, reminding us what a post apocalyptic film should look like...dark, raw and eerie.

As a teaser to a shelved series production, pulled off by a one man cast/crew on no budget, during a global shutdown by the way, you have basically told the large production companies to screw with their over bloated, over produced, over funded projects that stink beyond repair.

Great job man. You should be directing TWD. Perhaps saving the otherwise tiresome franchise. Bring on the series...UNDEAD FANS await your dark touch!

Like most Dead fans, disappointed with where the TWD series and the abysmally bad spinoffs have taken us, I too agree it is time for a truly dark series the likes of which we have not seen on television or streaming services. Although this short is just a teaser, the possibilities are endless in series form. The quality is amazing, sets are fantastic, sound effects are as good as a Hollywood feature and no crew or budget to be found. Bring it on...disappointed TWD fans are ripe for new content of this quality. Thumbs up!

Loving it so far! Please, please, please link more footage to the pilot. Looking for updates on to the series progression.

TWD and its two spinoffs have become unbearable to watch...Ugh! Fans have been left hanging with nothing, no hope until now. Many of us are hoping for your success Mr. Russell in bringing this series to market...please, please, please make it happen. Your audience will be huge if you keep it dark and raw like this teaser film. I literally check the film/series website every day for updates. A Fan!
