10 Scariest Sci-Fi TV Shows Of All Time
8. The Walking Dead
Not everyone is a fan of zombies and shows that use them. But it's hard ignore the juggernaut that is The Walking Dead. Based on the comics of the same name, the series tells the story of a mysterious zombie plague and those trying to survive during it. And every member of the cast doesn't make it, a hallmark of the series.
Over the years, the series has managed to generate some genuinely frightening moments. Those moments got fewer and far between as the show went on. The zombies faded into the background as the focus became warring groups of survivors. It became a human drama over a survivor drama.
The Walking Dead is set to wrap up soon, though its legacy will continue on in the form of various spinoffs. While the days of the series being scary on any level are long behind it, the first few seasons contain more than a few legitimately frightening zombie moments that still stick with fans until this day.
