We’re kicking off our October Horror Series by diving into one of the genre’s most enduring sub-genres: Zombies!
Before the zombie mayhem, we share some quick spoiler-free thoughts on The Long Walk, the new Stephen King adaptation in theaters now (0:07)— and yes, it more than lives up to the hype.
First, we go back to the gore-filled roots with George A. Romero’s Day of the Dead (Peacock) (08:34)— a classic that still drips atmosphere (and guts).
Then, we jump into the future with Danny Boyle’s long-awaited return in 28 Years Later (Netflix), the modern reinvention that has us terrified all over again (56:36).
We tease next week’s episode at the end if you listen to those things (01:58:34).
In the meantime, let us know your thoughts about 28 Years Later + Day of the Dead and don't forget to like & subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
