How times change. A few months ago the only good thing (that I knew of) to hail from Death Valley was this guy;
And MTV was a reality show wasteland full of talentless parasites who were considered celebrities by imbeciles.
Now, though? Beavis and Butt-Head are back on MTV and haven't lost a step, and Death Valley is kicking all kinds of ass.
It hasn't been mentioned on here yet, so I figured it may have slipped past our collective nets (it IS on MTV, after all). Basically, California has been swamped with vampires, werewolves and zombies and a reality cop show has been made, following the UTC (Undead Task Force) as they take down the bad guys.
It's surprising to see a "Warning: Blood and Guts" message before a show on MTV, and it's also surprising to see a funny, smart spin on the well-worn "follow the cops with a camera" premise.
I'm only into the third episode, so it's still early days but thought I'd give you guys the heads up on this one. It's a black comedy so don't expect Walking Dead levels of angst and realism, nor True Blood's social commentary. But there's plenty of blood, gore, the odd F bomb and a few hotties thrown in for good measure.
Here's the trailer;
