‘Festival of the Living Dead’ Exclusive Trailer – Tubi Movie Features the Grandchildren of Iconic Horror Character
Directors Jen & Sylvia Soska (Rabid, American Mary) bring you back into the universe of George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead with Tubi Original Festival of the Living Dead, and Bloody Disgusting has been exclusively provided with the official trailer today.
Festival of the Living Dead will bite into Tubi on April 5. The new zombie film is set decades after Night of the Living Dead, centered on the grandchildren of that film’s main character.
The Soska Sisters tweet, “The film is a sequel to Romero’s masterpiece original Night of the Living Dead – the story follows Ben’s grandchildren 55 years after the incident.”
Ben was of course played by late actor Duane Jones in Romero’s Night of the Living Dead, who bravely battled the shambling undead before being killed by the film’s human villains.
Watch the trailer for Festival of the Living Dead below.
Ashley Moore (I Know What You Did Last Summer) and Camren Bicondova (Gotham) star.
In Festival of the Living Dead, “It has been over 50 years since Night of the Living Dead’s original zombie attack and the horrific event has become the subject of morbid nostalgia. Looking for fun, Ash (Moore) and her friends attend the Festival of the Living Dead.
“But the festival is disrupted when a blast of radioactive space dust hits the festival and they must defend themselves or be devoured by the living dead.”
Andre Anthony (The Night Agent), Christian Rose, Shiloh O’Reilly, Gage Marsh (You Me Her), Keana Lyn Bastidas (The Hardy Boys) and Maia Jae Bastidas (Rabbit Hole) also star in Festival of the Living Dead. Helen Marsh and Miriam Lyapin wrote the script.
The film is produced & developed by Enlighten Content. Jacob and Jack Nasser produced.

From his very humble upbringing to his death from brain cancer, we get a rare glimpse into the wide-ranging influences that made Wes Craven a visionary filmmaker.
