it’s about darn time! I just got the good news that the The Spierig
Brothers’ gore-a-rific and out of this world Zombie jamboree UNDEAD will hit
the big screen on July 1st 2005!
Genre hoodlums Lions Gate will be handling the release like the big
boys that they are! I was lucky enough to see this inventive little
flick back in 2003 and I had a hoot with it! It actually made it into my
Top 10 of that year
Chew into the film’s Synopsis for now:
Peaceful, rustic Berkeley is a charming fishing
community where life is sweet and the people friendly. All that is about to
change. After losing her childhood farm to the bank, local beauty Rene decides
to leave town and head for the big city. Suddenly, an avalanche of meteorites
races through the sky, bombarding the town and bringing an otherworldly
infection.
Departing is going to be much more difficult than she
had planned. The living dead are awakened and Rene is now caught in a nightmare
of zombies hungry for human flesh. She manages to find salvation in a small
isolated farm house owned by the town loony, Marion. There she is met with four
other desperate survivors. Together they battle their way through a plague of
walking dead and discover that there is more transpiring than just an infection.
