RKSS Zombie Comedy Film “We Are Zombies” Shambles onto SCREAMBOX This August

Horror fans, get ready for a fresh take on the undead! The masterminds behind “Turbo Kid” and “Summer of ’84” are back with a gut-busting, brain-munching new film. RKSS, the Canadian filmmaking collective, is set to release their latest RKSS zombie comedy film, “We Are Zombies,” exclusively on SCREAMBOX this August 13th.

This isn’t your typical zombie apocalypse story. “We Are Zombies” asks the age-old question: when the dead come back, what do we do with them? In this case, the answer involves three slackers, small-time crooks, an evil megacorporation, and a kidnapped grandma. Talk about family drama!

The RKSS zombie comedy film takes place in a city teeming with what they call the “living-impaired” – non-cannibal zombies who are more of a nuisance than a threat. Our heroes, a trio of opportunistic slackers, find themselves embroiled in a misadventure involving petty criminals and a sinister corporation as they fight to rescue their abducted grandmother.

Written and directed by the RKSS team (François Simard, Anouk Whissell, and Yoann-Karl Whissell), “We Are Zombies” is based on the comic book series “The Zombies That Ate the World.” The film boasts a talented cast including Alexandre Nachi, Derek Johns, Megan Peta Hill, Vincent Leclerc, Benz Antoine, and Carlo Mestroni.

This RKSS zombie comedy film has already been making waves on the festival circuit. After successful showings at Fantasia International Film Festival, Sitges Film Festival, and Fantastic Fest, critics are drawing favorable comparisons to beloved zom-com classics like “Shaun of the Dead,” “Zombieland,” and “Warm Bodies.” It seems “We Are Zombies” has found the sweet spot between horror and humor that genre fans crave.

The excitement is palpable, with RKSS stating, “It is finally time we unleash We Are Zombies! We are thrilled, as horror fans and genre filmmakers, to be partnering up with the good folks at Bloody Disgusting and their streaming platform Screambox to bring it to your screens.”

“We Are Zombies” joins an impressive lineup of unique horror content on SCREAMBOX. The streaming platform’s library includes fan favorites like “Terrifier 2,” “RoboDoc: The Creation of RoboCop,” “Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls,” “Hollywood Dreams & Nightmares: The Robert Englund Story,” “The Outwaters,” “Living with Chucky,” “Creepypasta,” “Frogman,” and “Pennywise: The Story of IT.”
