The Strain – A Panel By Frame Comparison Between The Comic And The Show
But since books are comics without pretty pictures, it wouldn't make sense to compare visuals of the books to the show (that, and I haven't read the books, only the comics). Therefore, I decided to do a little comparing of the imagery from the first episode of Guillermo del Toro & Chuck Hogan's The Strain, which[...]

First Footage From Guillermo Del Toro's The Strain In New Trailer
We've seen all sorts of creepy imagery used to promote FX's adaptation of Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan's The Strain, but I believe this new :30 trailer is the first we're seeing of actual footage from the show itself.
