Cinefix has put together two unlikely favorites – The Walking Dead and Dr. Seuss – with its new Walking Dead parody ‘The Seussing Dead.’ The video covers the third season action of the show in Seuss’s traditional rhyme and meter, and the lovable childhood illustrations have been zombified in order to better fit the theme.
With awesome visuals and clever rhyme, ‘The Seussing Dead’ is a fun and easy way to refresh yourself on season three before the show returns this October. But be careful if you’re not caught up, because this mash-up is heavy on the spoilers. I can’t decide if this is a lighter take on the zombie drama, or a darker take on a beloved childhood classic. Either way, if you’re a fan of the show, you’ll love the fresh new twist on this Walking Dead parody.
