First There Was Night, Then Came Shawn And Now JUAN OF THE DEAD

Movie Zombie by brians

That's right peeps! Quiet Earth reports that Cuba is entering the zombie movie experience and why not, heck it's about time for some Communist zombies staggering around town so now we have Juan of the Dead aka Juan De Los Muertos for our Spanish speaking friends. 

The film is currently inco-production between Spain, Mexico, and Cuba, Jaun is budgeted at 1.3Million and will begin shooting in September. They're currently marketing it at Cannes. Kind of cool huh!

Synopsis:

Juan is a typical forty year old slacker. One day Havana begins to fill up with zombies. Juan decides that the best way to cope with it is to prosper. "Juan of the dead, killed their loved ones" is his slogan, and his mission is to help people get rid of those infected around them ... for a price. But the situation gets worse -- while everyone is escaping to sea as a means to get away, Juan is left with no choice but to become a hero, staying to defend his country and protect his own on an island that has turned into a real bloodbath.

 

Seriously I will be checking this out just to seee how it compares with the UK's Shawn of the Dead and the U.S.'s  humorous Dead movies. Probably will be no comparison to the [REC] films but it should be fun. What do y'all think?
