More UK zombie madness
Dread Central has your first look at the official trailer for The Vanguard (see it here), Matthew Hope’s savage UK zombie import. Not much is known about the plot, but Hope detailed his approach to the concept. “I think a big inspiration for the film was ‘Omega Man’ with my film having some similarities,” the writer-director tells DC. “Most notably being about the last survivor. Another thing I was interested in was that a lot of zombie films have political themes, especially Joe Dante’s episode of Masters of Horror ‘Homecoming’ episode or Romero’s ‘Dawn of the Dead’ being about mass consumerism. Mine has an interest in over-population and the treatment of people from the Middle East in the current War on Terror.”
