Sounds like liquor and watching hours of zombie shows don't mix.

23-year-old New Mexico man Damon Perry is in jail on an $800,000 bail after killing his friend Christopher Paquin following a period of excessive drinking while binge-watching the AMC series The Walking Dead.

"In my 13 years of doing this, that was the most brutal scene I have ever seen," said Grants Police Department spokesman Moses Marquez.

Perry told authorities he believed his friend was turning into a zombie and about to bite him. Police said Perry beat his friend to death with a microwave and a guitar and stabbed him with a knife.

After the stabbing/beating incident, Perry was apparently "chasing a woman around an apartment complex with a knife" when two maintenance men tackled him to the ground and waited for the police to arrive on the scene.
