Out of Control Asian ‘Zombie 108’
Film Asia Entertainment Group has released an out of control insane trailer for Zombie 108, directed by Joe Chien and starring Hsiang Rong, Tai Bao and Yvonne Yao. Inside you’ll find the footage, along with some early sales art.
“The nuclear disaster that Japan suffered accidentally alters the genes of influenza virus. A group of young people got infected and haven’t paid an attention to their illness, until a boy of them surprisingly bites a girl’s throat in a drunk night out. Their friends start screaming at the gushing blood.
After a virus event, the government orders to quarantine the sick and evacuate all residents in the vicinity. But those drunk party people have no idea on this message. Meanwhile, the army and the police join hands to form an SWAT to enter the quarantined zone. However, those survivors suddenly become zombies to attack the living. In no time, the whole city is with such huge bloodshed. People from all walks, including gangsters, policemen, SWAT teams and the civilians, are willing to work together to escape seemingly, but in fact they have hidden schemes to compete with and even kill each others. The biggest test in a doomsday is human’s mind.”
The Wayans are out to cancel the Cancel Culture with Scary Movie, and the cast assures it will do just that.
“They sort of have an across-the-board style,” Anna Faris tells EW. “It’s always been a part of the Wayans Brothers, their electricity. ‘Can we offend you? Will you still love us? Come on, you still love us, don’t you?'”
Regina Hall concurs, promising the “boundary-pushing” sixth installment in the horror parody franchise will “offend everyone.”
EW has shared a batch of behind-the-scenes images from Scary Movie, which hits theaters June 5 via Paramount.
Faris and Hall are joined by fellow franchise favorites Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Dave Sheridan, Lochlyn Munro, Cheri Oteri, Chris Elliott, and Jon Abrahams in the legacy sequel.
The ensemble includes Damon Wayans Jr., Gregg Wayans, Kim Wayans, Benny Zielke, Cameron Scott Roberts, Heidi Gardner, Olivia Rose Keegan, Ruby Snowber, Savannah Lee Nassif, Sydney Park, Kenan Thompson, and Felissa Rose.
Michael Tiddes (A Haunted House) directs from a script by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, original Scary Movie director Keenen Ivory Wayans, Craig Wayans (Scary Movie 2), and Rick Alvarez (A Haunted House).
The film will slash through reboots, remakes, requels, prequels, sequels, spin-offs, elevated horror, origin stories, anything with the word legacy in it, and every “final chapter” that absolutely isn’t final.
Scary Movie launched in 2000, followed by Scary Movie 2 in 2001. The Wayans’ involvement ended there, but the series continued with 2003’s Scary Movie 3, 2006’s Scary Movie 4, and 2013’s Scary Movie 5.
