You’d think a zombie film starring Malcolm McDowell, Sid Haig and Corey Feldman would ring a louder bell, but damn, we haven’t heard a titter out of this bastard ZOMBEX since May of 2011. F*ck that, today we nix the draught and offer up a trailer for the energetic low-budget ditty below. Get a gander at once.
From writer/director Jesse Dayton:
ZOMBEX tells the story of a post-Katrina New Orleans as it deals with a new disaster, a zombie apocalypse. NOLA residents are no longer experiencing the depression and post-traumatic stress due to the trauma of the hurricane, thanks to the revolutionary ZOMBEX – a rogue, yet, “clinically-proven” anti-depressant pharmaceutical manufactured by a nefarious organization. For those who call the Big Easy their home, everything is just now turning around for them. Or, could it just be the drug, ZOMBEX, talking… Just as things are turning around for the city and its people, they once again must face a disaster of epic proportions. Only this time, they’re dealing with the prospect of losing the people of New Orleans as they turn into the city’s walking dead…
Lew Temple, David Christopher, Emily Kaye, Pierre Kennel, Edward St. Pe, Desiree McKinney and Slayer front-man Tom Araya also appear in the movie, which apparently hits select theaters Halloween day.
