    Saw this promo a while back. Looks like it could be decent.

    Like, so many people out there were trying to track this down. And it just...got delivered on a tweet. What the hell.

    Doesn't look bad. The trailer might have been more effective if I knew what the little girl was saying at the end though.

    Probably not, but it's refreshing seeing something that's different.

    They've also crossed over into full sentience, way passed the evolutionary bumps depicted in Land of the Dead and Survival of the Dead, rendering them more like a new race of, basically, butt-ugly vampires, which will also eventually develop their own culture and eventual right to protect their un-lives by any means necessary.

    I wonder if these are the implications the filmmaker is exploring.

    I couldn't say for certain , but I'd saythat was the case. The movie will be condemed as trash because of intelligent zombies just as Land and Survival have inferred that they do indeed have some level of sentience. This was also inferred with Bub in Day as well

    Return of the Living Dead zombies have sentience. They just have trouble communicating due to the constant pain caused by their intense hunger for human brains.

    That's true, I don't know how many times I've seen RotLD and talking to one about what it's like to be dead definitely qualifies too. They were clever too, setting traps for new victims and laying in wait.

    The subtlety of behavior in this clip is pretty unprecedented though. Their calm waiting for their "leader" who strolls up and stops long enough for the humans to evaluate their situation, heightening their fear while demonstrating his control over not only himself but the army of undead on both sides who also show restraint. All of that is very complex, post survival instinct behavior. These are culpable zombies.

    Can't wait to 'The Dead' is released.

    You guys make some interesting points about what the director is trying to get across. I guess the 'zombies' are a little like the ones in 'Nightmare City'. Mobile and able to use implements etc. This could go either way, good or a complete pile of shit. All depends on how they try to explain why this has happened.

    We only think of zombies as shambling bags of skin because that's how we were shown them to be back in the day of NOTLD etc...

    Personally speaking you need to either go the whole hog and make them sentient full on scary intelligent bags of flesh, or keep them to the shambling walking bags of pus....there shouldn't be any middle ground - which is why Land possibly failed...

    I can't wait to see where the director goes with Zon261 because it has huge potential, and most likely, an American remake on the cards within a year.

    Can't think of anything more scary - a zombie, who can run like Carl Lewis, and starts waving a steel chain at you...screaming like a loon with bits of skin falling off his already rotten face.

    I reckon I'd shit my pants then pass clean out dead before it got anywhere near me,

    And that's pretty much why conventional perception is of them eating flesh as well, behavior that's more applicable to the ghoul prior to the introduction of the genus zombie-romero. Traditionally, zombies are minions raised up and controlled by a necromancer and don't eat flesh (though it's conceivable they could be ordered to).

    That said, I'm more open-minded when it comes to zombies than some other mythical creatures and willing to see where something like this went. It's hard to blaspheme a subgenre whose foundation is blasphemy
