And definitely seems like film on the Zombie genre is the newest trend in Bollywood what with 2012 being touted as the year of the Zombies. (Incidentally Saif Ali Khan’s Go Goa Gone and Abhay Deol’s Rock the Shaadi are Zombie-comedies set to hit the silver screen next year)
So what makes the Rock on star Luke Kenny film ‘ZOMBIE’ different from the other Zom-coms.

Besides they have registered the title ‘ZOMBIE’ and by default have ownership of the genre.
Luke Kenny and Devaki Singh are writer-director Team who’s love and passion for creating films with stories that push the envelope is all encompassing. The horror genre is one of the many areas of expertise.
What are about these Zombies that attract us to them?
The duo surmises “ Not being sociologist we would have to answer that question like this. We are just a bunch of sick freaks that use the cinematic vision of the undead feasting on the living as a release from the everyday monotony of lifeâ€
Luke Kenny further adds that this film is a ZOMBIE Origin, and not a zom-com, or a Zombie survival film. And Indian audience are sure to lap it up since they will empathise with the journey of a human being as he is faced with seemingly insurmountable predicament.
