What if Mad Max was set in a world not plagued by psychotic road pirates but the walking dead,
what would it look like? Step forward Wyrmwood: Road Of The Dead as Ozploitation turns zombie road movie as the new trailer arrives online, so it's time to rev up and lock and load!
After a successful run via Fantastic Fest, After Dark and Busan Film Festival South Korea, the Zombie Apocalypse is getting ready for it's cinematic release next month.
Wyrmwood: Road Of The Dead is the creation of brothers Kiah and Tristan Roache-Turner foolows our road warrior hero Barry who must save his sister from the militia forces.However things never run smoothly as Barry must fight his way through the hordes of undead and a psychotic doctor who is behind the kidnapping.
This is bat-shit crazy and it's that premise that we love about this film, it has a sense of fun about it, but it seems this trailer reveals too much of the plot. It has a nice balance of action and horror which should bring a smile to fans of each genre, so if you haven't seen any of the coverage of the film I maybe not watch this for a few weeks so you don't spoil the excitement of checking this one out.
IFC Midnight have bought the American rights to Wyrmwood:Road Of The Dead with Raven Entertainment for Canada. What we can gladly announce is this will get an UK release by Altitude Entertainment what date that will be we don't know at this Stage. We think this one may play a few UK film festivals in 2015 possibly Frighfest either next month at Glasgow or in the summer at London Frightfest, Wyrmwood will be released in Australia 6th February cinematically and USA 13th February on V.O.D
