	Author	Review
United States	Steve Greene IndieWire	"Whether you’re exhausted all remaining episodes of 'Black Mirror' or are looking for a more familiar, accessible entry point into the spirit of the show, 'Dead Set' is worth adding to your Netflix queue."	POS
United States	Mike Hale The New York Times	"The satirical possibilities are abundant, and 'Dead Set' (...) deftly makes the connections between reality television and zombification"	POS
United States	Rosie Knight IGN	"[A] fun, frenetic, and bleak British satire (...) If you're a fan of gore, ghouls, and sarcastic humor, then you'll love this early stage Brooker offering"	POS
United States	Barry Garron The Hollywood Reporter	"An odd mixture of parody and putrid violence that is neither as suspenseful nor as clever as it pretends to be."	NEG
United Kingdom	Chris Moran The Guardian	"A lot of the mechanics of the plot are familiar from its many predecessors, but the new context and the care lavished on it holds the attention"	POS
