Setin an alternate reality, a rural Georgia cop wakes up in the hospital in Atlanta only to discover that the world he knows has ended. He soon faces his first "walkers," or the dead reanimated, and goes in search of his wife and son. His gang of survivors face not only the undead, but also the living groups of other humans out to take them down. "The Walking Dead" is the most-watched television series in basic cable history, based on the graphic novels by the same name, and has filmed exclusively in Georgia. It put locations in Atlanta, nearby Senoia and beyond on the map for fans of the show.

Georgia Tour Company offers two-hour walking tours of Senoia, visiting locations used in "The Walking Dead," "Fried Green Tomatoes," "Pet Sematary II," "Drop Dead Diva" and more. They point out the base camp used for filming of "The Walking Dead" and test visitor knowledge. You have your choice of three different themed tours, all of which leave from Senoia.


Take a full-day driving tour with Georgia Locations Scout that includes 100 locations featured in "The Walking Dead," and stop for lunch at an actual filming location in the show. Also featured are locations from movies such as "Fried Green Tomatoes," "Lawless," "The Conjuring 3," and more!


This distinctive building overlooking I-75 just south of I-285 in Atlanta played the role of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in episode five of the show's first season. In real life, the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre, located just minutes from The Battery Atlanta, is a premier venue for Broadway shows, concerts, opera, ballet and more.


Meriwether County has joined the geocache trend, an activity for all ages that resembles a good, old-fashioned treasure hunt. But what makes the Woodbury Zombie Geocache different is the zombies wandering around as you search for body parts and weapons in 12 caches to fill your passport. Your quest even includes a visit to one of the filming locations: the radar station where some of the Saviors lived. The name is a nod to the fictional town used in "The Walking Dead" as well as the real-life town of the same name located in west central Georgia.


The Walking Dead is a 1936 American horror film directed by Michael Curtiz and starring Boris Karloff, who plays a wrongly executed man who is restored to life by a scientist (Edmund Gwenn). The supporting cast features Ricardo Cortez, Marguerite Churchill, and Barton MacLane. The film was distributed by Warner Bros. Dr. Beaumont's use of a mechanical heart to revive the patient foreshadows modern medicine's mechanical heart to keep patients alive during surgery.


John Ellman has been framed for murder by a gang of racketeers. He is unfairly tried, and despite the fact that his innocence has been proven, he is sent to the electric chair and executed. Dr. Evan Beaumont retrieves his dead body and revives it as part of his experiments to reanimate a dead body and discover what happens to the soul after death.


Although John Ellman has no direct knowledge of anyone wishing to frame him for the murder before he is executed, he gains an innate sense of knowing those who are responsible after he is revived. Ellman takes no direct action against his framers; however, he seeks them out, wishing to know why they had him killed. Each dies a horrible death, and in the end it is their own guilt that causes their deaths.


While confronting the last two villains, Ellman is mortally shot. Dr. Beaumont hurries to his death bed, and although pressed to reveal insights about death, Ellman admonishes, "Leave the dead to their maker. The Lord our God is a jealous God" (from Deuteronomy 6:15). As Ellman dies, the two remaining racketeers are killed when their car runs off the road, crashes into an electric pole, and explodes. The film ends with Dr. Beaumont repeating Ellman's warning about a jealous God.


The Walking Dead's executive producer Hal Wallis wrote to the production supervisor, Lou Edelman, on August 16, 1935, that he had sent him a six-page outline for a film titled The Walking Dead.[4] The original story for the film was written by Ewart Adamson and Joseph Fields.[5] On November 1, director Michael Curtiz was sent the draft of the film.[4] A few days before shooting was scheduled, actor Boris Karloff voiced problems involving his character John Ellman.[6] These issues included Ellman's lack of speech, which he felt was too close to his role in Frankenstein (1931), and Ellman's Tarzan-like agility, which he felt would induce laughter.[6] Wallis brought in three more writers for the film.


In addition to Karloff's stunted dialogue, this film's resemblance to Universal's Frankenstein is most obvious when Edmund Gwenn's character revives Karloff, including the dramatic change in music, the pulsating lab equipment, off-kilter camera angles, and, finally, Gwenn saying, "He's alive".


The Walking Dead premiered on February 29, 1936.[1] Writing in the March 4, 1936, issue of Variety, the reviewer "Odec" said that the film would provide "limited satisfaction" for film patrons with "a yen for shockers." The reviewer wrote: "The director and the supporting cast try hard to give some semblance of credibility to the trite and pseudo-scientific vaporings of the writers, but the best they can produce is something that moves swiftly enough but contains little of sustained interest." Further, "Odec" predicted: "Karloff will have to be sold on past performances" as The Walking Dead "lets him down badly."[8]


The film was re-released theatrically in 1942. Two decades later, United Artists Associates syndicated the film to local US television stations as part of its 58-film package "Science Fiction-Horror-Monster Features." The package became available on May 15, 1963.[9]


The Walking Dead movies are officially dead. But, in true zombie fashion, they have snapped back to life in a new form entirely. The trilogy starring Andrew Lincoln's Rick Grimes is now a limited series starring Grimes and Danai Gurira's Michonne.


Unfortunately, in the interim, COVID hit. 2020 came and went with a solitary major update from Gimple. He told Collider, "We're following the same general plan but movies take a little longer and we're playing with it in all sorts of directions. "And then, the pandemic happened, which gave us the opportunity or the necessity to do that. We're still doing that. Andrew [Lincoln] is super involved. [Robert Kirkman] is super involved. It really is proceeding. It's just that current circumstances have given us a little extra time that we seem to need anyways. We really want to do it right."


Finally, at SDCC 2022, news arrived that The Walking Dead movies had been canceled and replaced by a limited series about Rick Grimes. Lincoln and Gurira will both reprise their roles from the series. The show, which consists of six episodes, will air in 2023. No spoilers here but The Walking Dead season 11 (and series) finale helped set up the story to come.

"Good morning, Rick. How was your coma? Things are a little... different now." The hospital where Rick wakes up is actually the Atlanta Mission building. Proof that all that's needed to zombie-fy any area is the addition of military vehicles and some body bags with flies buzzing around them.


Rick used to work at this here sheriff's station before the apocalypse came and increased the unemployment rate to round about 99 percent. The "King County" sheriff's station is actually decidedly ITP.


Rick stops into this farmhouse and makes a grim and disturbing discovery, but he does get a horse out of the visit. You win some, you lose some, right? The farm's exact location is 33.447257, -83.757239.


If you're Atlanta savvy, you know some CG effects were at play in this famous scene because that's Freedom Parkway, not 85, and there are no trains running alongside the highway. Still, it's pretty badass.


The series hasn't filmed in downtown Atlanta since Season 1, but man, when it did, there was some action to be seen. We're taking overturned cars, tanks, massive hordes of walkers, horror galore. This area was home of the building that reflected the helicopter Rick chased, rampaging zombies, and the tank he hid inside.
