The Walking Dead, Season 7: a scene too gory episode 8 was cut

Cinema 16 December, 2016

You can not take away this: The Walking Dead is not the kind of show that looks away when it hurts. Like the first episode of season 7 and the massacre of Negan the AMC show does not hesitate to show gore and trash, when necessary. But for the final mid-season, a scene was edited out. Or rather watered. Warning spoilers!

THE WALKING DEAD, SEASON 7: ANDREW LINCOLN PROMISES THE BEST FOR LATER

Remember: in episode 8, Daryl took to their heels and fled the Sanctuary … not without fall to the nice “Fat Joey”, which is clearly not in the army of Negan conviction policy. Then he goes and looks ready to let slip the biker without a word, Daryl decides to smash his skull, without further ado. The scene is violent, but we do not see much …

But initially it was supposed to be a lot more gore: by actor Joshua Hoover – who plays Joey Fat – the producers eventually chose restraint. ” My character is downright smashing head. Normally, we should have seen special effects grimey, with a blood spurting everywhere package, after the iron bar liked” , he explains in ComicBook.com . “Everyone was saying on stage that it was great, but very graphic as sequence! Really very explicit. So I guess that’s why they decided to cut this part of the scene editing.”
