Horror Comedy ‘We Are Zombies’ Lands At Screambox
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: Cineverse has acquired the horror-comedy comic book adaptation We Are Zombies. The company has said it plans to release the pic this fall across all platforms, including its genre streaming platform Screambox, with a premiere date to be announced soon.
The deal was negotiated out of this year’s Berlin Film Festival by Brandon Hill, Director of Acquisitions, on behalf of Cineverse and Gregoire Melin at Paris-based Kinology on behalf of the filmmakers.
The movie follows three slackers looking to make easy money in a city infested with the living-impaired, also known as non-cannibal zombies.
They must fight small-time crooks and an evil megacorporation to save their kidnapped grandma. The film is based on the comic series The Zombies That Ate the World, written and directed by Yoann-Karl Whissell, François Simard, and Anouk Whissell, the filmmaking team behind cult classics Turbo Kid and Summer of ’84.
