Zombie Economy has evolved from a cult following to popular culture and is worth 5.74 billion dollars, according to Wall Street estimates, and still counting! Intact the latest is that the University of Baltimore, USA, has included a study on this worldwide
phenomenon of the Zombie culture. And though Zombie genre is nascent in India, Zombism will be the next big trend in Indian films.

Luke Kenny’s RISE OF THE ZOMBIE seems to have marched ahead in being the 1st Zombie genre film in India, amongst other high profile Zombie Film. The newest genre coinciding with the 100 years of Indian cinema in India is slated for release in 22nd Feb 2013.

Luke Kenny and co-director and writer Devaki Singh being experts in the Zombie Genre helped in having a clear vision to complete the film in clockwork precision. BSI Entertainment & KENNY MEDIA is pleased to present India’s 1st Zombie origin genre horror thriller tilted ‘Rise of the ZOMBIE, the first feature film in the world that will showcase the journey of a Zombie.

Rise of the ZOMBIE will be different from other flicks attempted in this genre since it is not a Zombie comedy, nor a Zombie survival series, but the journey of the transformation and origin of a ZOMBIE,due to unpredictable events, complex back story, into a contemporary psychological horror with unimaginable Zombie mayhem that will keep the audience to the edge of the seats.
