Exactly. Unfold the mystery of the infected, their hierarchy, all that is exciting ...and scary. Nope, they, and I am looking at Walking Dead also, always pivot to drawn out character drama, most of which is unnecessary, basically low effort screen writing.
It depends on the type of zombies depicted. The zombies in TWD are very straight-forward and there isn't much depth to them.
In other shows like Kingdom? A bit different.
Do you like post-apocalyptic settings generally that aren't zombie, out of interest?
Zombies get a lot more scary when you don't have guns or fast communication like in Kingdom.
And when the zombies are fast and the infection process is quick
I love these kind, a complete horror.
That's Kingdom, and All of us are Dead.
The reality is that if shambling zombies actually existed, like in TWD, they wouldn't be a civilisation ending threat. And the idea that there's enough of them after 10+ years like in TWD to be able to horde up is preposterous.
