    Has anyone else seen these teaser ads which Channel 4 and E4 have been running for the past week for a new zombie series/film that they are revealing tonight at 10:15pm?

    It's caught my eye and I'm looking forward to seeing what it is.

    Official website



    .

    Yes, Les Revenants french Zombie show with a score from Mogwai - retitled as "Rebound", looks great.

    Yeah, looks interesting. Hopefully if it's a success we will see more good foreign language programs on TV, this may be a starting point to get people used to subbed shows who otherwise wouldn't watch them. I know that BBC4 show a fair few (mainly crime dramas) but not many other stations do. If a show is quality then it should be shown regardless of subtitles or not.

    It's not on tonight, just being 'revealed' at 10:15pm, presumably during an ad break on the 10 O'Clock live show.

    So the teaser ads Channel 4 have been running were actually for a short film GiffGaff produced to promote the series and not from the actual series itself....that was a bit of a let down!

    This is the trailer for the actual series;

    I agree....all the hype and we get an advert for a mobile network. Disappointing.

    Watched the first episode awhile back and enjoyed it. Just got to make the time to watch the full season and anyone who doesn't fancy waiting till C4 airs it can find subtitled versions in all the usual places.

    According to the tv guide, this is French with English subtitles.

    Which is why I suggested people they get the subtitled versions.

    Not a massive fan of supernatural stuff but I found it interesting enough. Will stick with it.

    I enjoyed that, I liked how they didn't really go with any obvious plot exposition dialogue, just leaving you to infer meaning from the scene.

    eg.
    That Camille/Léna were twins and Camille hadn't aged, or that the meeting was for the kids' parents. No need for a big "Dealing with loss" placard in the room or anything.

    Watched this last night. Very chilling and unnerving atmosphere.
    I'm hooked.

    Chilling is the right word for it.

    Great series so far. Was worried that I wouldn't get in to it due to subtitles.

    Why doesn't he/she just lock the thread and have done with it? I mean, I'm on the fence regarding this after one episode, (I didn't care for 'victor'), but let people enjoy it if they want, while they can.

    And a moderator also, this is not very exemplary, is it? :confused:

    They're only a user in this forum, not a mod. And he only gave his opinion on the series. You may very well enjoy the whole thing. Nothing has been spoiled for you.

    I guess we will find that out in four sundays time, when episode 5 airs. I still consider the post to be mean-spirited.

    I'm not sure what mean by mean spirited - that I had a negative opinion on it or that I expressed it before you've had a chance to form your own?
    I don't think I've spoiled anything in any case.

    The thread title refers to Channel 4 which has only shown one episode.
