Funny Or Die Skewers ‘Walking Dead’ Recap Show With ‘The Walking Fred’

As it turns out, Talking Dead has not cornered the market on The Walking Dead recaps. Funny or Die has released The Walking Fred, which tells the story of AMC’s hit zombie series from a zombie’s point-of-view.

The host of The Walking Fred is a walker (That’s Walking Dead-ese for “zombie”) named Fred, and his recaps have a tendency to skip over the “boring human stuff” and instead highlight all of the show’s action sequences. Fred gets particularly giddy whenever he appears on screen, whether he’s getting his brains blown out, dashing himself against the hood of a car, or just hanging out with his fellow walkers in the middle of the street.

The Walking Fred is directed by Vincent Masciale, who has experience lampooning pop culture touchstones on Funny or Die. For instance, he recently directed a Halloween-themed Game of Thrones parody.

According to Variety, actual cast members from The Walking Dead will guest star in future episodes of the web series. If you’re curious to see who shows up, you can keep track of The Walking Fred over at Funny or Die.
