There have been a flood of zombie movies released over the past few years, making it hard for one movie to really stand out, but ‘Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead’ does just that. Writer-director Klah Roache-Turner’s Australian film has already accomplished what most horror films can’t, a world-wide following. The film stars Jay Gallagher (War Games), Bianca Bradly (This Woman’s World), Damian Dyke,Keith Agius, Berynn Schwerdt, Cain Thompson, Leon Burchill and Sherida Harbridge .

Along the way Gallagher’s character Barry, teams up with a group of survivors. Barry’s sister Brooke (Bradey), is taken by a military group and handed off to a psychotic doctor who is performing experiments on both zombies and people. After a series of shots, Brooke develops the power to control zombies telepathically. Brooke is as badass as she is beautiful and she’s out for blood.
