The Walking Dead's Best Zombie Kills: An Animated List of the Top Ten

Definitely agree with #1 of Daryl's beheading like a boss... however when you think about it. Dale beheaded a Z but it was still alive... so not exactly Zombie Kill of the Week... still cool none-the less.
Shane slicing off the top of the head of the Z that got gang-beaten out in the fields was particularly gory and awesome.
Glenn's Drug-store zombie kill was damned good as well.

There's just too many of them and with this coming Sunday's episode... we're going to see some really good stuff hopefully.


Damn, we're all sick aren't we?... Happy to be a part of it!

There has been a lot of great walker killing going on. A few that comes to mind and shoul be on a top 10 list in my book is, in no particular order:

A: Darryl taking out a walker with a knife from behind to save wounded T-Dog on the interstate back in 2.1.
B: Leon Bessi gets a bullet from Ricks Python through the fence back in the pilot.
C: Darryl removes arrow from his side and shoots walker in face back in 2.5
D: Sophia

All of these where cooler than wellwalker according to me.

My favourite has to be the pig-pile. Just for pure comedic effect...

[Maka523]

I personally liked Andrea's scythekill a lot.

God help the walkers if she gets her hands on a combine harvester...

I really liked the pig pile, but Daryl's kill was boss-tastic!

Wow, I completely forgot about Glenn's drug store zombie kill. But looking now I can't seem to find a .gif of it.

I eliminated a whole bunch of other amazing shots because they didn't count exactly as kills. One of which being Herschel's Wife getting her jaw blown off during the barn stampede (which is a subtle but amazing CGI effect) and the other two happening during the attack on the camp in Season One. During that scene, Shane shotgun blasts a zombie's arm completely off, and Rick sends this other dude flying backwards through the air like 10 feet, which is kind of cartoonish but still amazing.

But I don't know I'd say a zombie head without a body is more or less harmless and therefore killed. I'm sure The Walking Dead could prove me wrong though...

I think Andrea's pitchfork kill was my fav from this season. I thought Rick's kill with the axe was better than the Daryl beheading 'kill', but that's just me.

I think Andreas pitchfork kill is way to overrated. If we mention Andreas kills this season alone the killing of Anette during barnmaggedon is much more cool. She used a scythe, the weapon of choise of the grimreaper, much more cool than a random pitchfork.

[gracie lou]

I liked the pitchfork better than the scythe.

Yeah it was nice, but the scythe with its associates made my day. It also was a more "important" walker so to speak. But the pitchfork was nice...But a bit overrated on a top 10 list i think. There where a lot of nice walker killing in that opening scene of better angels. According to me, Shanes shovel killing was just as good as Andreas pitshfork kill.

Here we are, discussing the best way to dispose of a walker. Are we "crazy" or just fans

[gracie lou]

No way!!! Shane's shovel kill was no where near as cool as the pitchfork!! You crazy!!

That whole scene was just so well done, imo. I cannot be talked out of the coolness of the pitchfork, Mr. Dunlap.

[Ansceniiiic]

Shame Rick's kill with the rock in the episode "What Lies ahead" didn't make the list. I thought that was pretty awesome.

[Wayne Dunlap]

LOL. There has been so much nice walker killing going on that we will never agree on a top 10. The coming sunday we will probably have new favorites to discuss.

Really? I didn't think the walker head was gushy enough.

[WinnebagoOne]

All great kills! I think my favorite was Daryl pulling the arrow out of himself to use on the zombie.

I also liked the pig pile. I think Rick shot the one zombie 3 times to get to the third zombies head! You could see the barrel of his gun showing through the first zombies head!

[Babs Bladdyblah]

Yeah, you're right, man. That is enough. - Shane Walsh



Not the most visually stunning kill, but he got the job done. And she also whipped her hair back and forth.

[Gingerella]

I must also cast my votes for Shane's "whip my hair" kill, because it was so symbolic, and Daryl's efficient T-Dog rescue kill. I would have them replace the blood spatter kill and Rick's ax kill, respectively.

Suggestion please... to maintain continuity among threads... when Sunday sports a whole batch of Zombie Kills of the Week lets post 'em here instead of a whole other thread. It'll save the mods/admins the work of having to merge threads because they're basically talking about the same thing... particularly kewl zombie kills.

hmm... should try to make an air conditioning unit falling on a zombie's head from a roof top gif...

Ahuh yes! And we should maybe award a score as well!

• Artistic endeavour
• Gore
• Hair being flipped back
• Innovation

Andrea is my bitch.

[lastman2012]

Got to agree that Daryl pulling that crossbow bolt out of his side just in time to shoot that walker in the head is the best. He's just lucky that the first one started gnawing on his boot instead of his leg before that.

Good idea. Especially if there's anyone out there who's skilled at making a nice quick .gif I'm going to want to get my hands on tonight's (hopefully multiple amazing) kills ASAP.

I really do dig Shane smashing the walker's brains with a shovel in that same scene as the pitchfork ... especially the walker's last dying gasp, we almost never see that. But as far as skull smashing goes, I have to take the SUV kill (#5 in the article) over Shane's shovel smash.
