First ‘Yummy’ Image Looks Deliciously Gory!
Heading to Cannes later this month is the new Belgian horror comedy Yummy, which was directed by Lars Damoiseaux.
Bloody Disgusting scored the first image from Yummy, which is said to be “an orgy of blood, action and fun” in which a young couple travels to a shabby Eastern European hospital for plastic surgery.
The young woman wants a breast reduction. Her mother comes along for yet another facelift. Wandering through an abandoned ward the boyfriend stumbles upon a young woman, gagged and strapped to an operating table; she is the result of an experimental rejuvenation treatment. He frees her, but does not realize he just caused the outbreak of a virus that will change doctors, patients and his mother-in-law into bloodthirsty zombies!
The film stars Maaike Neuville, Bart Hollanders, Clara Cleymans, Benjamin Ramon, and Annick Christiaens.
Watch for more out of the Cannes market.
