Zombie Quality - Grant Ausbury


A Comparison of Zombie (Makeup) Quality


Above is a comparison between the zombies of Zombieland (top photo) and that of The Walking Dead (bottom photo) television show on AMC, which is currently about to begin its' third season. I believe that the make-up artistry in The Walking Dead is a little more advanced and detailed because it is a horror/drama television show rather than a comedy/horror film. I am very impressed by the makeup done in Zombieland, but it was not as high quality as the television show that came out just a year later.


 Above is a comparison between the zombies of Zombieland (top photo) and Dawn of the Dead (bottom photo). The zombies in Zombieland were much higher quality then that of the 2004 film Dawn of the Dead. I believe the reason for this is that the advancement in the quality and experience of makeup artists between 2004 and when Zombieland came out in 2009. As I mentioned above, Zombieland was a comedy/horror film while Dawn of the Dead is solely a horror film, which makes Zombieland's makeup very impressive.
