The Walking Dead is Staggering Towards Us

We here at the Big Kids Table are HUGE fans of Robert Kirkman's The Walking Dead comic series and starting this October those of you who don't know how to read will get a chance to see this great story come to your television. AMC has started releasing some preview material on their Walking Dead blog to wet our appetites. Here is one of the images to give you an idea of the direction they are taking with the look of the zombies.

After the jump, check out what director Frank Darabont (The Mist, Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile) has to say about the direction of the new series on AMC, and join in our excitement.
