Black Summer (2019)

Black Summer (2019) — Action / Drama / Horror Set in the chaotic, earliest days of a zombie apocalypse, Black Summer follows a mother ripped from her daughter as she plunges into a brutal, disorienting world to find her. Thrust together with a handful of frightened and desperate strangers, she must make ruthless choices, navigate collapsing society, and fight through relentless danger in a race to reunite with loved ones. Watching Black Summer is an immersive, pulse‑quickening experience: the pacing is lean and urgent, scenes often play out in real time with handheld, cinéma‑vérité style camerawork that amplifies panic and confusion. Expect gritty, unglamorous action, sudden violence, and moral gray areas — the show focuses less on explanation and more on raw survival, tension, and the cost of staying human when everything falls apart. Viewers will feel adrenaline, dread, and a persistent emotional pull for the mother and the ragged band she travels with. If you like bleak, fast‑paced survival dramas with visceral scares and moral intensity rather than elaborate backstory, this series delivers a ruthless, unforgiving portrait of the first deadly summer of the undead.
