Titled "The Stalking Dead," the sketch from filmmakers Kimmy Foskett and Liza Renzulli of CHIX Productions hilariously sums up what it's like to social-media-stalk your date and the horrors you find when you do.

Foskett and Renzulli incorporated The Walking Dead in part because — let's face it — online dating is kind of terrifying.

"We made the video because online dating can feel a little post-apocalyptic," Foskett told BuzzFeed. "Unless you have mutual friends to vet, you're pretty much agreeing to spend time alone with a stranger you've swiped through a couple pictures of. How can you not do some detective work on the internet?"

"We think this rings true for people because you do actually feel a like a zombie when you go down the stalking rabbit hole," Foskett added.

"Time flies by," she said. "You can't stop yourself. It's dark. And everyone does it. "
