Getting tons of hype is Howard J. Ford and Jonathan Ford’s The Dead, their zombie pic that heads to Africa where Lt Brian Murphy finds himself in extreme conditions and must team up with local Daniel Dembele in order for both men to try and find their way back to what is left of their lives, whilst also battling a terrifying threat from which there seems to be no escape. The pic will have its world premiere at the London Film4 FrightFest (August 26-30), and today we got our hands on the first OFFICIAL trailer, along with a new poster. Check it out inside
