Zombie Hunters: City of the Dead Zombie Hunters: City of the Dead is an independent television series produced in New York City, notable as being the first broadcast zombie-based television series. It details the lives of a group of friends banding together to survive the epidemic resurrection of dead humans. These re-animated corpses are driven by a need to feed, and only attack living humans. Conceived in 2005 by series creator Patrick Devaney, the show isn’t so much about the zombies themselves and the fight against them; it’s really about how the decisions characters make to survive change them in profound ways.
