The Scary Villain Group We Never Got to See in The Walking Dead

One of the scariest groups we never got to see in The Walking Dead was a group of 30 men that committed the worst crimes against random survivors. Rick’s group interacts with only three of the members, such as two random guys they meet in a bar, and Randall, a young kid from this dangerous group of men. 

Rick and Shane instantly took matters into their own hands to dispose of these dangerous men. However, Shane’s own murder wasn’t exactly justified, but after hearing about the sick acts these men committed against their victims, I was 100% on Shane’s side here. 

Rick killed the two men in the bar out of self defense, when they attempted to shoot him dead, and he does this without a shred of hestitation, protecting Glenn and Hershel in the process. The group stumbled upon Randall later on, and he becomes their hostage. Daryl takes it upon himself to torture the guy for a while, and they learn disturbing things about Randall’s group. 

He talks about one of their crimes, a horrific act that left me so disgusted and scared. Randall talked about a recent crime they committed, when the group stumbled upon a father and his two daughters. 

Randall only says that they made the father watch, admitting to a very disturbing vile act that his group committed against these poor victims. We never learn if they were killed afterwards, but knowing how dangerous this group was, I believe they most likely did. 

Rick’s people immediately panic over the potential of running into this group, because who knows what other horrors they had in store for them? Also, Randall apparently went to school with Maggie, Glenn’s girlfriend, so letting him go free was so damn stupid. He knew the location of the farm, and if Randall wanted to become a total piece of shit than he already was, he could easily have led the men back to the farm. It could have been a sick form of revenge, since Daryl did torture him, and the group did consider murdering him for a time. The group argues over killing this guy, and only Shane decides to kill Randall, which I thought was a smart thing to do. I get that Randall was only 20 years old, but to me, this guy was super evil. 

• He allowed innocent people to be tortured at the hands of these men, never standing up for them from the sound of it. 

• He probably witnessed murders at the hands of these men, and I highly doubt that Randall ever helped any victim. 

• He could have possibly participated in these crimes, but of course he would never admit to this. 

Even though we never get to see the entire group on screen, the storyline we got through these random three men was so damn scary. It’s one of those groups that I think Rick would have struggled to defeat, because at the time, none of them were ready to face their new world. Except for Shane, whose eyes were open to his harsh new world, but he ended up completely giong crazy later, so he wasn’t a good example for the group. 

I’m not saying that the group was 100% soft, but they weren’t exactly full on warriors. I think they all changed significantly in season 4 and 5. 

I would have given anything to have seen this group run into Rick’s people later. 

Rick literally chopped a cannibal to pieces back in season 5…imagine what he would have done to this evil group?

I’m kind of upset that we never actually learned the fate of this group.

Did they go crazy and kill each other?

Did they run into a group worse than them?

Or did they happen to run into a horde of zombies, and get ripped apart? 

(I hope the last option was their main fates).

What do you think happened to the group?

Thank you for reading!
