Moving at a brisker pace than The Walking Dead, everything is fast in Black Summer – the storyline advances quickly, the camera-work is pacy and shot on hand-held devices … even the zombies run.

In fact, running is pretty much all that happens in the first episode, which is comprised of a handful of short segments that introduce us to some of the characters caught up in a zombie outbreak.

#BLACKSUMMER is a story that goes beyond thrills and suspense. It is a love story that guides us through chaos and fear. It is a horror story that puts unimaginable circumstances into perspective. It is a story for you and me, filled with raw emotions and intensity, realness and grit, a powerful and dramatic ride that illuminates the extraordinary nature of people from all races and backgrounds. Black Summer has my heart and soul. 🖤 Tomorrow is the day! See you all on @Netflix 💯♥️

There are a couple of scenes that slow things down and feature actual conversations, but it’s mostly running. That’s not necessarily a bad thing – it certainly makes for an exciting watch. Question is: can it sustain the pace? (On Netflix now) 3 stars

A pop culture enthusiast from a young age, Gavin is equally passionate about great pop music (’80s synthpop, ’10s dream pop), gripping TV series (Friday Night Lights, The Handmaid’s Tale) and trips to the cinema (I love a blockbuster as much as anyone, but I’m done with the superhero thing).
