It's not scary. The point of the story is all of the soul-crushing decisions that the survivors must make in order to keep surviving. Hence the double-meaning of the title: at some point, even the survivors are dead inside. The zombies are just background for that drama, and since it's basic cable, the gore is limited. There are a few unusually good prosthetic jobs each season, mostly for promotion shots, but the vast majority consist of only dirt, contacts, maybe an open gash or two, and unbrushed teeth.
