Zombies sighted at Walking Dead event

Did you spot some bloody, gruesome and horrifying-looking zombies lurking around at several spots around Kuala Lumpur? And hearing people scream in shock? *laughs*

The zombies also made an appearance at KL Sentral on 30th January 2013. Besides generating buzz, these zombies helped to promote one of the most watched Hollywood series, The Walking Dead Season 3. The second part of the series premiers exclusively on FOX Movies Premium (Astro Ch 413) and FOX Movies Premium HD (Astro Ch 433) at 11.00pm beginning 17 February 2013 and thereafter every Sunday at the same time.






The horrifying-looking zombies were at first caged waiting to come out! 


Anthony Yeap, Territory Head for FOX International Channels Malaysia said, “The Walking Dead has been a constant favourite with our viewers and the third season is nothing short of being a marvelous one. For the second part of this current season, we wanted to promote The Walking Dead Season 3 in a unique way."

“We are proud to be televising one of the most exciting shows of the year, a week after the US release date, and this is part of our continued commitment to enhance the viewing experience for our FOX Movie Premium and FOX Movies Premium HD viewers.” he added. 


They were then released to the public much to the dismay of passers by!
