Sorry waves one and two… you’re out of luck! Man, I never thought I’d say this but even I am having zombie fatigue. Hopefully this latest film can breathe some life into this rotting subgenre.
Screen Daily got the first look at Ellen Page in post zombie era drama The Third Wave via the Paris-based Sales company Bac Films.
The first feature of Irish director David Freyne unfolds in the aftermath of a devastating virus which transformed the infected into zombie-like monsters.
Mankind is struggling to rebuild societies deeply divided between the uninfected and those who did succumb to the virus and are still haunted by their violent actions.
In the backdrop, the rise of a terrorist movement threatens to plunge the world into chaos again.
Freyn directed from his own screenplay developed out of proof of concept prequel short The First Wave which you can watch below.
