Top 10 The Walking Dead Zombie Kills


nothing is off-limits in the show that
reimagined the zombie drama genre
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
zombie kills from The Walking Dead for
this list we’re looking at AMC’s hit
show The Walking Dead and are choosing
what we think are the most impactful
memorable or just plain badass Sambi
kills of them all up to the season 5
midway point that is we fully expect
even more gratifyingly gruesome kills in
the future and as always if you aren’t
up to date on the show a spoiler alert
is most definitely in order
number ten Andrea’s DIY problem Dale oh
this is small matter of being stuck in
the middle of nowhere with no hopeless
the groups on the move but a busted RV
and a highway pileup stops them in their
tracks cue the zombie horde
while almost everyone else hides beneath
abandoned cars Andrea and her dismantled
gun are trapped in the campers bathroom
by one hungry Walker as she desperately
struggles to keep him out Dale manages
to drop her a screwdriver remember this
was the premiere episode of season two
long before everyone was accustomed to
getting up close and personal with the
walkers but Andrea makes sure there’s no
return for this undead attacker with
several frantically aimed blows to the
eye
number nine brotherly love hey little
brother the Dixon brothers had a
notoriously complex and violent
relationship even before the outbreak
and this confrontation brings satisfying
closure to their storyline aw shit man
my wife up and everything is going so
sweet right Merle finally finds the good
within himself and attacks the governor
and its troops alone
unfortunately it’s a suicide mission Oh
No
after Murrells death he subsequently
turns and as Darrell arrives on the
scene he finds his brother grazing over
the remains of the troops he previously
killed
barely able to look at his undead
brother before anger takes over
Daryl reduces Murrells head to a pulp
it’s safe to say expect more Daryl
coming up
number eight penny for your thoughts
after vowing revenge on the governor for
holding her captive
Mechele sneaks into his quarters where
she encounters a McCobb scene with
zombie heads floating in tanks and the
governor’s daughter chained up and
masked but surprise Penny’s a walker too
and when the governor finds the katana
wielding survivor about to put down his
little girl he expresses
uncharacteristic vulnerability begging
for mercy there’s no need for her to
suffer
she doesn’t have needs
for a brief moment we think Michonne
will spare her but one katana thrust
later Penny’s dead and Michonne and the
governor are locked in a battle that
ends with him losing an eye number seven
junk in the trunk
yeah wild animals getting wild so baby
as brothers Daryl and Merle hear screams
and shots the elder sibling refuses to
help while the younger rushes to the aid
of a family man a couple of strangers
they never cooked me a meal or play
setting my Beast
after taking down some walkers Darrell
sees one making its way through the back
of a vehicle where a woman and her baby
are trapped he wastes no time dragging
the zombie out by its ankles then using
the trunk door to eviscerate its skull
in a veritable geyser of blood this
scene aptly demonstrates the differences
between the two brothers while also
satisfying our need for gore and fake
blood
number six bullseye while desperately
trying to find Carol’s lost daughter
Sophia Daryl endures serious pain after
falling down a ridge taking one of his
own arrows to the side so which one
attempt to climb to the top results in
another fall and disturbing visions of
his brother taunting him
fortunately whirls less than kind words
are exactly the motivation Daryl needs
to fight the Walker nipping at his boots
new ways bitch now I nobody’s bitch in
his delirious stupor he finds the
clarity to pull the bolt from his side
and relocate it to another Walker skull
showing how badass daryl is even in the
diarist of situations this kill gives us
insight into the mind of a deeply
troubled man
number five on the tee Daryl Dixon we’re
not staying in a suck-ass camp by this
point in season four Daryl and Beth are
partnered together for survival
Beth chooses this time to rebel and
wants to get drunk I can take care of
myself and I’m gonna get a damn drink
she storms off finding a golf club house
she sure will have booze and let’s be
honest the potential for a golf themed
kill was high golfers like to visit a
friend Daryl doesn’t disappoint as the
pair’s chased deep into the clubhouse by
hungry walkers
with few weapons in sight he grabs a
club and downs one Walker before
launching into his swing spring zombie
brains straight down the fairway and all
over AP wildered Beth after the
apocalypse maybe Daryl can join the PGA
Tour beat up on walkers if that makes
you feel better I need to do this
number four little girls ah me now is to
be expected many developments occur in
the first episode of this series setting
us up for the roller coaster to come but
it’s this execution that firmly
establishes the horror and desolation
that the zombie apocalypse has wrought
little girl I’m a policeman for
protagonist Rick Grimes
it must have particular resonance as his
son Carl would have been much the same
age still holding her teddy bear the
little girl zombie charges at Rick
forcing him to put a bullet in her head
an ambitious move for a pilot episode
this kill throws us headfirst into the
world of The Walking Dead number three
Maggie shows a walker the way this
sanctuary that’s just another reason to
try the group is devastated at losing
their relatively comfortable home at the
prison and are trying to make their way
towards terminus terminus when we were
out on the run to the veterinary college
we heard a message about this on the
radio and at this point everyone’s got
problems but perhaps no one more so than
Maggie distraught at the idea that she
may never see Glenn again she takes out
her frustrations on an ambushing pack of
walkers
on this occasion a street sign is a more
than suitable weapon making quick work
of several walkers heads we love
Maggie’s evolution into a kick-ass
female and this frantic kills sums that
growth up perfectly number two and spree
killing I’ve been straight with you
you were straight when you led me into
the tombs okay maybe I wasn’t straight
you put a bag over my head in this world
you work with what you got Rick has
quietly decided to turn Michonne over to
the governor to ensure the safety of his
group and Merle naturally jumps at the
chance to help by binding her wrists to
prevent her escape
you’d think that would leave her exposed
but this is Michonne we’re talking about
when Walker’s attack she uses what’s
available namely herself her Bynes and a
post to stop one zombie and pin another
– slowly but surely remove its head it’s
brutal
resourceful gory everything we love
about the Walking Dead you got to play
the hand you’re dealt only got one
before we take aim at our top pick here
are some honorable mentions
number one Karl shoots Shane so this is
where you plan to do it it’s good places
Eddie
Rick and Shane’s progressively volatile
relationship finally culminated with
this scene really believe they’re gonna
buy whatever bullshit store you cook up
with Shane growing increasingly unhinged
he moves to kill Rick and take back
control of the group why why now
but our protagonist foils his former
best buds power grab
stabbing Shane straight through the
heart Karl arrives to see his father
kill his surrogate dad and points his
gun in Rick’s direction
unbeknownst to rick shane has reanimated
behind him revealing a vital piece of
plot information but before zombie Shane
can attack either of the Grimes boys
Karl fires taking down a key character
and losing his innocence in the process
do you agree with our list I wish I had
something better to say something
something more profound which Walking
Dead zombie killed that you think was
the most badass for more gory top 10s
