Who knew that the zombie genre would be as hard to kill as those pesky undead bastards. After the success of Resident Evil, 28 Days Later and Dawn Of the Dead remake it seems that everybody and their mothers started to make zombie movies and now the undead have spread all over the world as countries that are not exactly known for their genre pictures are emerging with their take on the reanimated corpses. Serbia is stepping up to the plate with their own zombie flick, Zone Of The Dead, starring none other than Dawn Of The Dead alumni Ken Foree. The film is about two Interpol agents who are to escort a criminal to back to Belgrade only to encounter a zombie infestation in a small town on the way. The film also stars Rob Zombie's Halloween Kristina Klebe and looks to be an old school zombie craziness.
The film has already been premiered in its native country and the good folks over at Epic Pictures (Dark Island) are handling distribution but so far no word on US release. You'll find the trailer below the break.
Hmmm...I think I'll wait for the now inevitable Moldovan zombie epic.
Yep that's old school zombie craziness for sure,and the inclusion of Ken Foree is a nice touch. Considering it seems more competently made than most zombie movies of late (especially the awful Day of the Dead remake) and that it's shot in English, this should surely find an audience. I particularly like the part where they have to walk through a pile of dozing zombies.
