Over the weekend director Zack Snyder’s new movie Army of the Dead premiered on Netflix platforms around the world and some viewers immediately noticed a major problem, that first seemed like a hardware issue with their televisions. Throughout the 2.5 hour zombie epic there are instances where “dead pixels” can be seen on the screen, but upon inspection it became clear that this digital artifacts were not because of a fault in the HD TVs but rather embedded into the film itself. Viewers took to social media to talk about the issue and point it out to others, while many were simply happy to learn that it wasn’t their TVs that were busted.
If you watch Army of the Dead, don’t freak out thinking you have a dead pixel on your TV, it’s the movie! #ArmyOfTheDeadPixel pic.twitter.com/DfIQiNqbDx
I mean ultimately the fact that #ArmyOfTheDead has a dead pixel in a bunch of shots is a very, very minor imperfection. But it is also quite funny, and the kind of thing that will drive some viewers absolutely bananas when they notice it. pic.twitter.com/Xg1U3UsTca
