Water is the Currency now on Fear the Walking Dead: Mad Max Inspiration.
Reminiscent of Mad Max: Fury Road, Strand commented “Water is the Currency now”.
Reclaiming the crown as king, green paper reduced to the history books.
The ominous vision of the future where the rich and powerful control a basic necessity for life… Was more chilling than a herd of zombies could ever be.
Fear the Walking Dead inspired by Mad Max: Fury Road If you care, my top five 2015, so far: 1.
Mad Max — Robert Kirkman (@RobertKirkman) August 30, 2015 It’s no secret that Robert Kirkman, creator of The Walking Dead and Fear the Walking Dead was a major fan of 2015’s Mad Max: Fury Road.
In fact, he listed the film three times in his top 5 movies of 2015 on Twitter.
Mad Max appears to have inspired Kirkman to put his own spin on the concept on Fear the Walking Dead.
A major part of Kirkman’s success with The Walking Dead was after all, the idea of human behavior faced with limited resources.
The walkers have always been consistently predictable, human behavior is not.
