quietearth [Celluloid 05.07.10] zombies movie trailer apocalyptic news horror action gallery



Being a huge Danny Dyer fan (seen City Rats? Highly recommended) I'm greatly looking forward to this, and oh yeah, there's zombies too. Thanks to producer Jonathan Sothcott, we know the film will be screening at the Cannes market and will be getting an October DVD release in the UK via E1. He also points out that Dyer is in "top form in quite a different role, as an ex-cop desperately trying to find his girlfriend amidst the zombie apocalypse." Further, he says that director Mark McQueen has made a zombie movie "with genuine style and lean, no a mean feat". BRING IT ON!

The not too distant future. Newgen Industries, a leading pharmaceutical company company, is trying to placate a media uproar. Its new "legal performance enhancer", RAK-295, has met with spectacular failure during testing, causing severe physical and allergic reactions in all 30,000 of its test subjects.... Allergic reactions in all but one user... Angela Mills.

Angela is pregnant and is making arrangements for own leave of absence from a city full of woe and bad memories for her. With Angela being the only person not to report any type of reaction to Newgen, Dr. Brooke (Head of Newgen) understands that Angela may hold the key to solving this disaster and enlists Cole, the head of security to find her and bring her in for examination.

But Cole, a hardened ex-mercenary, has just handed in his resignation to Peter White, the CEO of the company. Why? He wants out - the undercover violent and murderous job of solving problems 'off the record' has started to weigh heavy on his conscience. The outbreak claims Brooke and Peter White and during the struggle Cole is bitten - his fate sealed.

Or is it?...

Bat zombies? Frog zombies? Bat frog zombies? Why are they screeching and leaping? I like the cast, budget seems alright, but the zombies themselves seem pretty derivative. I'll still give it a watch. Hopefully the full trailer fleshes things out a bit better.

I had the same lukewarm reaction. I wanted to get excited about it, but the trailer looked like any other bad Hollywood zombie movie (or whatever the hell the UK version of Hollywood is).
