"The sketches have them real gaunt, a lot of exposed teeth, and a couple specific characters were inspired by the graphic novel and the sketches they did." "I've done a lot of zombie films in my past. I've worked with Robert Rodriguez on 'Grindhouse' and a lot of the George Romero films, so I'm kind of a zombie aficionado." "We have some classic zombies, with the stereotypical bite wounds and dead-looking flesh with dried blood, that kind of stuff. Then we have some hero, featured zombies that are a lot more elaborate in terms of dentures and contact lenses. There are grades of zombies — we have our featured hero zombies, and then we have our mid-ground zombies, and our background zombies." "This is probably one of the biggest days we'll have on the shoot, because we have about 150 zombies today. It's been pretty crazy."
