Dead End Days was a zombie comedy internet webserial released by Rocket Ace Moving Pictures between 2003 and 2004. Launched in October 2003 "DED", as it is known by fans, was one of the first independent webserials (serialized live action video series developed for broadcast exclusively on the Internet), and a predecessor to modern vlogs or podcasts.
Released weekly at DeadEndDays.com, the series combined elements of farcical comedy, classic serial adventure, social commentary, and modern zombie horror genres. The year long story followed the adventures of a number of individuals in a world where a human-zombie war has been narrowly averted, and corporate marketing interests were just starting to target the undead as a viable demographic. Consisting of forty-eight episodes each of five to ten minutes in length, the series ran from October 2003 to November 2004, and attracted a cult following due to its black humor and commentary on modern marketing culture.
