FOX celebrates The Walking Dead 100th Episode with Escape Room stunt at Sunway Pyramid from 18 Oct to 24 Oct
The Walking Dead, one of the world’s most watched dramas, returns for a terrifying and exhilarating series, consisting of 16 episodes. In this highly anticipated 8th season, Rick brings “All Out War” to Negan and his forces. The Saviors are larger, better equipped and ruthless – but Rick and the unified communities are fighting for the promise of a brighter future. The battle lines are drawn as they launch into a kinetic, action-packed offensive. Up until now, survival has been the focus of Rick and his group, but it’s not enough.
They have to fight to take back their freedom so that they can live. So that they can rebuild. As with any battle, there will be losses. Casualties. But with Rick leading the Alexandrian forces, Maggie leading the Hilltop, and King Ezekiel leading the Kingdom — Negan and the Saviors’ grip on this world may finally be coming to an end.
