‘Blood Quantum’ Poster Fights Back Against the Undead

Heading to Shudder this spring is Jeff Barnaby‘s zombie thriller Blood Quantum, which now has an action-packed official poster in which a masked man slaughters one of the undead.

In Blood Quantum, the dead are coming back to life outside the isolated Mi’gmaq reserve of Red Crow, except for its indigenous inhabitants who are immune to the zombie plague. Amid the chaos, a tribal sheriff must protect his son’s pregnant girlfriend, apocalyptic refugees, and reserve riff-raff from the hordes of walking white corpses.

Shudder recently released a blood-soaked red band trailer that looks like one of the better zombie films in recent years.

Joe Lipsett reviewed the film for us out of the TIFF World Premiere, writing that “Blood Quantum serves both as a reasonably entertaining zombie film, but more importantly, as a vital socio-political critique of real historical events in Canada.”

ALSO WATCH: In this first clip, watch as dead fish return to life, foreshadowing the undead apocalypse.
