As the world went on lockdown due to the Coronavirus pandemic, Full Moon founder Charles Band quickly put together a Coronavirus-themed movie by mixing newly shot scenes with stock footage from the 2012 Full Moon release ZOMBIES VS. STRIPPERS and dubbed clips from the 1980 Bruno Mattei film HELL OF THE LIVING DEAD. The result: CORONA ZOMBIES, which just had its online premiere on April 10th.
During the lockdown, a lot of people around the world have been watching the Netflix docu-series Tiger King. Band has taken note of that, and today we can make the EXCLUSIVE announcement that CORONA ZOMBIES is getting a sequel titled BARBIE AND KENDRA SAVE THE TIGER KING!
CORONA ZOMBIES introduced us to Barbie and Kendra, played by Cody Renee Cameron and Robin Sydney, and the characters are coming back for the next chapter in this satirical saga.
BARBIE AND KENDRA SAVE THE TIGER KING has the following synopsis:
After narrowly escaping the contagious catastrophe of the CORONA ZOMBIES, ditsy American beauties Barbie and Kendra battle their deadliest foe yet: social distancing boredom. Hooked on binge-watching a television show about a man and his tigers on a nature channel, the two ladies hatch the perfect plan to save the Tiger King himself! From the living rooms of LA to the wilds of Africa, our dynamic duo embark on a curve-flattening journey to free Joe from a fate worse than Carole Baskin!
It's a bungle in the jungle as Barbie and Kendra continue their quest to survive the panic of the pandemic in this, the next Coronasploitation caper from the studio that NEVER sleeps, Full Moon!
BARBIE AND KENDRA SAVE THE TIGER KING is currently in production and is scheduled to be released exclusively through the Full Moon Features channel and app on May 15th.
One month from today, fans will already have the chance to watch the sequel to CORONA ZOMBIES. Full Moon promises "it's gonna be grrrrrreat!"
