HBO's "The Last of Us" instantly captivated audiences and impressively shattered viewing records. The critically acclaimed series faithfully adapts the video game of the same name, with a talented cast that authentically brings the beloved characters to life. Starring Pedro Pascal as the rugged and formidable father figure Joel and Bella Ramsey as the smart-mouthed hope for humanity Ellie, "The Last of Us" is a truly distinctive series brimming with disturbing moments.

After a parasitic cordyceps infection devastates humanity, Joel and Ellie travel across the country with a singular mission in mind. In her past, Ellie suffered an infectious bite only to discover that she is the rare, immune exception. She meets Joel as he's deeply grieving the loss of his daughter Sarah (Nico Parker) and the two embark on a dangerous mission. Joel has to guide Ellie safely to the Firefly base to produce a cure and eventually prevent any more people from turning into the monstrous Infected.

"The Last of Us" seamlessly translates the original game's terrifying sequences involving advanced forms of the Infected known as Clickers and Bloaters. It even accurately depicts the human enemies, who sometimes pose a greater threat than the flesh-eaters. This results in a series full of harrowing and memorable scenes. We've compiled a list of the debut season's most gripping moments. Spoilers ahead.
