Get ready, the south is about to be overrun with the undead in Attack of the Southern Fried Zombies (aka Kuzu Zombies) from director Mark Newton (City of Darkness).
In the film, the kudzu-covered hills of Charleston, Mississippi, notable as Morgan Freeman’s hometown, are ground zero for GloboBioTech testing of their experimental herbicide Quadoxin, which goes horribly wrong. Lonnie, a crop duster pilot, must lead a mismatched group of survivors to escape the deadly zombie horde after the Quadoxin transforms the citizens of the small town into zombies.
The film stars Timothy Haug (Malady), Moses J. Moseley (The Walking Dead), Wyntergrace Williams (This Just In), Megan Few (Demons), Escalante Lundy (Django Unchained), Miles Doleac (The Hollow) Kaitlin Mesh (Homeland), and Clay Acker (Whacksaw Fridge), with Zombie Makeup & SFX by Jonathan Thornton.
Christian Hokenson penned the script.Daniel Wood, p.g.a., Mark Newton, Juri Koll, and Per Ericson produced, with Stephan Stromer co-producing.
Los Angeles zombie fans will have an opportunity to see the film early, when it screens as part of the Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival on Wednesday, February 28 at 8:30 PM PST at Regal LA LIVE Stadium 14. You can get your tickets here.
