SEPTEMBER 2, 2022–ViX+, TelevisaUnivision’s premium Spanish-language subscription streaming service, will present the film MEXZOMBIES, a horror comedy by Mexican director Chava Cartas, at different festivals around the world, starting with the Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival (September 2, 2022); followed by the Sitges Film Festival (International Fantastic Film Festival of Catalonia), in Spain; and the Mórbido Fest in Mexico City (both in October 2022). The production will arrive exclusively on the ViX+ streaming service before the end of the year.
“It was a real adventure to have made the first zombie movie in decades and to have found a story in this genre that connects with the heart of the audience – both young and old,” said Chava Cartas, the film’s director.
Starring Iñaki Godoy, Marcelo Barceló, Roberta Damián, Luciana Vale, Vincent Webb, Daniel Tovar and Bárbara de Regil, MEXZOMBIES follows the adventures of two somewhat misfit teenagers: Cronos, a lover of classic cinema, and Tavo, an aspiring parkour expert. Along with their friends from the exclusive Sierra Linda neighborhood, they must face the unexpected challenge of preventing a zombie apocalypse in Mexico City. As they test their friendship, they also search for their first love. MEXZOMBIES mixes comedy, action and horror in a film for young people of all ages.
