Witness the Evolution of Zombies Throughout Cinema History
Zombies have been a horror staple since nearly the beginning of film. Dating back to 1932’s White Zombie, which is widely considered to be the first feature-length zombie film, and going through the decades, we can see how the undead walkers have evolved from possessed beings and mindless flesh eaters into enraged harbingers of viral disease and even hosts for demonic entities.
The folk over at Digg have put together a video that details this evolution by using clips from dozens of zombie films, culminating with…”iZombie”? Well, I can’t argue technicalities!
Check out the video below and then tell me your favorite type of zombies in the comments! Is it the Romero slow walker or the 28 Days Later speed runner? Is it [REC]‘s demon zombies or Victor Halperin’s Haitian Voodoo-inspired creatures?
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
