It seemed wittier on the page, with the Romeo/Romero puns and know-the-credits jokes with names and characters. Strictly low-hanging fruit, even for a lame horror parody. But after seeing it, you really do wonder if Hollywood will ever make another if they can do no worse with no budget attempts like this.

This juvenile horror-comedy spoof is primarily, if unintentionally, a cautionary tale about the perils of allowing brahs to make movies.

Why does this movie have a bad score? I saw it in the theaters and was like, "whoa this is deep." It reminded me of the crappy show...what was **** Walking Dead? Only difference was the emotional impact.

A very faithful parody of the series. Wasn't strong all the way, but it hit home with many references. As for the low scores, there's not a single parody/satire film with scores above 2 on this website, which just goes to show how brain-dead these "sophisticated" reviewers are.

The Walking Deceased is strictly DOA.

There's no more disposable type of comedy than the genre spoof, and no greater example of its general creative worthlessness than The Walking Deceased, an interminable 90-minute goof-off propped up by references to popular zombie-apocalypse fiction.

It is almost boring but because I was expecting more Comedy and is not that funny. To be honest there are some laughs there, for instance, the one involving "Inception". The rest is just a movie that is a parody and that is all.

It's an endless stream of lame jokes and occasionally a funny one. Maybe it would've sound funnier with some better acting. If you are in the mood for a trashy movie go for it.

I'm usually a fan of these parodies but this one fell flat on it's face for me. Not a single joke landed and it lacked the charm of other great parody movies. Boring, terrible writing/acting AVOID. 2/10
