IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN THE NEW EPISODE DON’T READ IT!!!!
On of the most popular shows on TV returned last Sunday on the 11th. It was a long wait for the first episode of the new season. Social media was going crazy, and trailers were slowly being released to show us some bits of the new season. At New York Comic Con, the first 4 minutes of the new episode were released and all hell broke loose.
We last ended up in Terminus, The Walking Dead crew was split up and at the end of season 4 they all ended up in the same spot. Shit was about to get real, they found out Terminus was full of cannibals, and Rick told everyone locked inside the train car with him “They don’t know who they’re messing with.” These cannibals were monsters, they ate their own, and they lured people in by acting nice at first and then eating them, but they truly did not know who they were messing with.
This is the leader of Terminus, his name is Gareth. A little back story is, when the zombie apocalypse started out, Terminus was actually a sanctuary. But then everything went to hell, and they had to resort to cannibalism. It was revealed that Terminus was actually taken over, and all the women and men who originally ran the place, were locked inside a train car and the women were raped. They decided to help people, and in return were treated like animals.
If we decide to analyze these people using Carroll, we come to see that they aren’t monsters. It shows us that these people were forced into these impure actions. As I watched the show, I began to wonder whether it was their fault? Or can you be forced into being a monster as these people were? Or do apocalypses create monsters in all of us to survive?
