The action takes place during a fictional series of the reality TV show, with stories unfolding both on camera in the 'house' and with the staff behind the scenes. When a zombie outbreak occurs the contestants are blissfully unaware inside their secure little bubble, a bubble which soon becomes a fortress when outsiders seek refuge from the walking undead. Inevitably, the infection spreads into the 'house', turning the popularity contest into a scene of carnage, with cast and crew uniting to escape the ultimate 'eviction'. (Verleiher-Text)

A reality show that strips its participants to the bone. Though it employs almost every cliché of zombie horror movies, Dead Set has a thrilling pace and a bleak atmosphere, and Andy Nyman enjoys playing his insufferable prick of a character as much as Ricky Gervais enjoys playing David Brent. I was disappointed by the modest number of episodes, but at the same time, I appreciate that the series is not artificially drawn out and ends when it’s still at its best.

Dead Set is a very good show about zombies, but some of the reviews lead me to expect a lot more carnage. In any case, watching this limited series is a joy, if only for the frequent and brilliant gore or the occasional funny dialogues.

Das ist für mich absolut krass! Die Briten beweisen erneut, dass sie westlichen Horror getrost konkurrieren können, möglicherweise sind sie sogar in vieler Hinsicht besser! Die Rohheit und Hoffnungslosigkeit strömen förmlich aus ihm heraus (nicht zu vergessen das harte Finale, das keine Rücksicht nimmt), in so einer Situation würde ich mich wirklich nicht wiederfinden wollen. Besonders wenn die Zombies so wütend und schnell sind. Die ganze Serie habe ich fast in einem Zug geschaut, ich habe jede Minute verschlungen, alle Schauspieler, besonders Patrick, waren großartig, als er in den Eimer kackte:). Noch mehr ähnliche Projekte, bitte! 9/10
