Zombies attack Cuba in 'Juan of the Dead'
Published Thursday, May 19 2011, 14:45 BST | By Simon Reynolds | 1 comment
The colourful movie history of the zombie will take another intriguing turn very soon with the arrival of Juan of the Dead, Cuba's very first movie depiction of the undead. Juan director Alejandro Brugués is at the Cannes Film Festival selling the film to distributors worldwide, so we grabbed a few minutes with him to chat about his love for George Romero, why Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Edgar Wright made the best zombie movie of the past 20 years (the title is a big tip of the hat after all!) and a pair of latex testicles. We were fortunate to get a glimpse of footage from the movie and let's just say it packs some zombie carnage on an epic scale!
