But as the days and weeks pass by it seems the reanimated dead are regaining all their faculties little by little until they become a “huge threat” (more on this later) to the remaining survivors.

At first the corpses are blind, deaf, and barely have any motor control (they can hardly move). A few days after the virus swept through and killed 99% of the world’s population, the dead corpses start to come back alive.

Michael (Dexter Fletcher), Emma (Lana Kamenov), and Carl (Dickon Tolson) seem to have a pretty good plan until a wrench is thrown into the works. Three of them decide to go off and separate themselves from the others. We join a group of survivors as they try and figure out what the hell just happened and as they try and come up with a plan of what to do next. A virus, which is never explained, comes outta nowhere and kills billions of people within a few hours. So I won’t be comparing the novel to the movie.Ĭharacters trying to figure out if they're in a dream sequence or not!!

For example, Autumn: The City goes for $59.99 on amazon and Autumn: The Human Condition, the last of the series, goes for $548.21!!! For that price Moody better come to my house and read that fucker to me every night. I was looking for them online at a while back and found them to be a little outside my budget. So what happened with the translation from book to screen with Autumn? Well I must, in full disclosure, admit that I haven’t yet read any of Moody’s books. I really respect Moody for the path he took and only hope he is reaping the rewards of all his writings (he also wrote Hater in 2006 which is currently in production with Guillermo del Toro producing). Martin’s Press) acquired the entire Autumn series and Moody removed them from the internet as free downloads. Eventually Thomas Dunne Books (a division of St. The free on-line Autumn was such a huge hit that Moody wrote a bunch of sequels ( Autumn: The City, Autumn: Purification, Autumn: The Human Condition, and Autumn: Disintergration). Now he has a movie deal and I wish Moody could have picked the directed for his first novel. It gathered such a following and picked up so much steam that Moody eventually got a publishing deal. The first book, not surprisingly titled Autumn, was published by Moody for free on-line. This one has all the ingredients to be a really kick ass zombie flick but ultimately falls a part in its execution.įor those of you not familiar with Autumn, this is a series of books written by David Moody. Oh this one hurts to review!! I had such high hopes but was ultimately let down.
