YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE...MAYBE TWICE!

"THE DEAD" Africa set slow-moving zombie epic with a making of saga that you wouldn't believe



For all those Zombie fans who prefer a Fulci/Romero zombie of the 'get there in the end' variety as opposed to the sprinting fiends of post-28 Days Later movies, The Dead is going to eat you up!

Check out the site I'm doing for the UK release, there's some background on the incredibly dangerous shoot that the cast and crew had to endure to bring the film to screen which is going to surprise you.

I haven't published the whole saga yet, but stay tuned for the complete story over the next few days.

THE DEAD ARE EVEYWHERE!
I WANT THIS!!! is it out now???

UK release date is: October 10th 2011, so not long if you can play Region 2 discs.

 

 

what about the US release??

Unsure about a US release date, I'm only dealing with the UK one, but I'll try and find out if I can.

In the meantime, here's a Lawrence of Zombieland type stills:

 

 

the only good zombie is the one with a ventilated brain bucket.

Just posted a little Wicked Zombies exclusive still on the WZ Facebook spot:

Thank you Cult Labs we will get our pre-orders in. Just make sure your DVD player can play Region 2 discs.

America is Region 1. UK and Europe are Region 2.

Most players will only play discs coded to the region where you live. Some play any disc, regardless of region. 

Woof!

"While it was a tough and demanding shoot for every single minute of the entire eight-week production period, THE DEAD actually turned out to be by far the most horrific experience a cast and crew should ever have to endure. Howard J Ford remarks, “If I had known the extent of how truly life threatening it would be on a day-to-day basis – how much real death we would encounter, how sick we would become, that we would face knives, guns, constant corruption, even near death from malaria - if I had truly known how shocking the situations we would find ourselves in and how many of us would come so close to our own deaths during the shoot, perhaps THE DEAD would never have existed”.

 

This is a quote from the extensive production notes on the movie (which may contain spoilers... Noooooo!) which are published in full on The Dead site - link at the top of this thread.

 

Zombies movies are survival horror stories and The Dead is definitely a movie for fans of the Max Brooks book The Zombie Survival Guide, or anyone whose ever preserved ammo for a later boss while playing Resident Evil, skirting around lower level walkers to save firepower for a worse encounter.

 

Ghoulish as it may be, the trials and dangers the cast and crew went through definitely add a frisson to the films story of survival at all costs.
