With only one episode of TheWalkingDead left, the shambling zombies we have come to know are suddenly seeming mighty spry.
Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Season 11 of The Walking Dead and Tales of the Walking Dead.
After more than a decade of television, the long-running AMC series The Walking Dead is now coming to a close. It has been quite a journey that hasn’t always been the most consistent, but these final episodes have started to introduce something new to this growing universe. While the human characters and their various conflicts have always been central, the swarms of undead zombies we have become familiar with have now begun to change.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY When Did the Evolution Start? As some key background, this new element actually didn’t begin in the main series. Rather, the ideas this final season is playing with were first introduced in the surprisingly fun recent spinoff series Tales of the Walking Dead. While not always directly related to the main storyline, it told a collection of anthology stories, of which one provided a crucial component to understanding the context of what is going on with the zombies.
The Characters Are Ill-Prepared To Defend Themselves Against These New Walkers Jumping ahead to the most recent episode “Family,” all of our various characters are launching an attack on the Commonwealth in the hopes of taking down Pamela once and for all. To do so, they use a horde of walkers as a distraction. Aaron even takes a small group into the middle of the horde.
Of course, this isn’t the first time we have seen walkers maintain some functionality beyond just eating human flesh. Way back in the very first episode of the stellar first season, entitled “Days Gone Bye,” there was the unsettling sequence where the reanimated wife of Morgan attempted to open a door while Rick looked on with horror through the peephole from inside.
