Review of Pilot

Fear the Walking Dead: Pilot (2015)
Season 1, Episode 1
5/10
Slightly promising, but mediocre for a pilot

To be honest, if this show wasn't tagged with "Walking dead" you guys wouldn't be watching the next episodes.

Writing this I have to add the fact that I'm a hardcore Walking Dead fan. Since this was supposed to be a pilot, everything was happening too slow. The times between the (few) chilling fears where too long. Too few plots where planted and the writers left a Little too much to the Viewers and the pre-knowledge of the Walking dead universe.

Sure Rick and the bunch wasn't too good of actors and into their roles in the first episodes but since more of the Fear cast are established actors I had hoped for more. Dialogue was just as bad as in the first episode of The Strain and that show got itself together later on. Probably Fear will too.

The Video game The Last of Us gets you more connected to the characters in the opening scene then 60 minutes of this pilot. Strangely enough since Kirkman bunch are good writers.

Nough nagging. Footage was very good. Tension in the few scary scenes too, they where just to few...I have high hopes for when hell is actually breaking loose and will stay tuned.
