Zombies. You love ‘em, I love ‘em, and yes, even Frontier(s) director Xavier Gens loves ‘em, which is why he’s produced a film called The Horde. Twitch Film managed to pin the man down during the Neuchatel International Fantastic Film Festival, where he gave them the first details about the film.

Of course there’s more to it than just zombies, as cops and robbers come into play as well. The Horde is set to roll in September under the direction of Yannick Dahan & Benjamin Rocher, and they're still looking for the undead. LOTS of the undead. Check out their profile on Facebook for one open call (it's in French, but translating should be a breeze for you, all savvy and all), and their MySpace page for another.

One word of warning: They are looking for running zombies so if you decide to try out for it, make sure you're in shape, not shambolic. Yes, that is a word.

Now, without further ado, check out the video of producer Gens scooping Twitch Film as to just what the hell The Horde is all about below!
