I’ve been waiting for the Ford Brothers sequel to the awesome zombie flick The Dead for quite some time now, and today we have the first one-sheet for the follow up, The Dead 2: India. The film will debut as part of the Film4 FrightFest in the UK this August. Read on for more details on the film and the festival.
From The Press Release
The Ford Brothers, the British director, writer, and producer team behind the Indian-set zombie road movie The Dead 2: India, have released the official poster ahead of its sell-out opening night world premiere at Film4 FrightFest 2013.
The poster was designed by Luke Insect for FrightFest Originals, and copies will be available to buy at FrightFest.
Demand to see the first-ever screening, which is set for Thursday, August 22, 6.30pm at the Empire, Leicester Square, has led the organisers to put on an additional screening for Saturday, August 24 at 11.00am. Tickets are on sale now.
THE DEAD 2: INDIA follows the story of American engineer Nicholas Burton (JOSEPH MILLSON) in a race against time to reach his pregnant girlfriend, Ishani (MEENU).
