Anchor Bay has just announced the Blu-ray/DVD release date for Howard J. Ford and Jon Ford’s THE DEAD 2 (formerly known as THE DEAD 2: INDIA), the sequel to their 2012 surprise zombie hit. “The first international zombie film production to be shot in India” will be available beginning September 16th, which is pretty much the start of Halloween season around these parts.
The synopsis:
A ship docks fresh from Somalia which contains one infected worker that passes unnoticed into the very heart of India’s overpopulated bustling streets, setting off an unstoppable chain of events. Meanwhile, American turbine engineer Nicholas Burton (Joseph Millson, Casino Royale) is working in the stark yet tranquil Indian countryside when he receives a call from his love Ishani (Meenu), a local girl who lives on the outskirts of the slums of Mumbai and who has hidden their relationship from her tradition-minded father. She reveals she is now pregnant and scared for her life as chaos and terror have taken ahold of the cities as the dead return to life and attack the living. Nicholas has to battle his way across their 300 mile landscape filled with flesh-eating – and infectious – undead. With the help of young street kid Javed (Anand Goyal), he has to rely on his wits and sheer brute force to try and save them all, as the clock ticks off the minutes before the last flight out of a living hell…
