Performance/Costume Review: Where to begin with this zombie spotlight? I've decided to clump all the blind zombie Templar knights into one review because none of them stood out (well, there was that one with the armored glove made out of a tinfoil oven mitt). Anyway, these guys had charisma! Their list of exploits include, but are not limited to: Chasing people on horseback, chopping off arms, raiding a train and killing everyone, using the sounds of human heartbeats to over-compensate for the loss of sight, killing a child and the element of surprise on both a train and in the ruins of a temple.
