Early last month we told you that Zombie Dawn is getting a comic before it’s release as a prequel. This was after we showed you a Zombie Dawn Trailer or two that we loved the early shots from.
It’s starting to look like the prequel you will be getting has to be a quick read though as you’ll be reading it directly before the film itself. Huh?
Well the film is being released on April 20th in select cities that anyone who purchases tickets will also get this limited edition copy of the comic – Zombie Dawn: Safehouse.
This is a shame because I will not be able to attend anything on the weekend in May that it’s in the Chicagoland area so will be losing out on a copy of the prequel comic.
2006. A mysterious incident at a remote mining facility unleashes a zombie horde with an appetite for human flesh. It decimates large portions of the cities and countryside. The only course of action is to rapidly enclose the infected areas and seal them off from the rest of the remaining, living population.
Now. 15 years later the tattered remains of the government and the mining corporation responsible for where the initial event took place commit themselves to finding out what may have happened at the mining complex. The solution is to covertly send a group of mercenaries and scientists into the quarantined zone to find answers.
Initial cities/dates are as follows:
APRIL 20-26:
COLORADO, Aurora: Cinema Latino
ALABAMA, Birmingham: The Edge
TEXAS, Fort Worth: Cinema LatinoMAY 4-10:
ILLINOIS, Rosemont: Muvico
FLORIDA, Hialeah: MuvicoMAY 18-19:
WASHINGTON, Vancouver: Kiggins Theater
