‘Army of the Dead’: Zack Snyder Teases “Insane Zombie Mayhem” in His Horror Movie Return

Zack Snyder, who was first introduced to horror fans through his excellent James Gunn-penned Dawn of the Dead remake, is returning to the zombie subgenre with his long-gestating Army of the Dead for Netflix.

The adventure is set amid a zombie outbreak in Las Vegas, during which a man assembles a group of mercenaries to take the ultimate gamble, venturing into the quarantined zone to pull off the greatest heist ever attempted.

Production kicked off last summer with Dave Bautista sharing this photo of the entire cast on set, which includes Ella PurnellAna De La RegueraTheo Rossi, Huma Qureshi and Garret Dillahunt.

“There are no handcuffs on me at all with this one,” Snyder previously told THR. “It will be the most kick-ass, self-aware — but not in a wink-to-the-camera way — balls-to-the-wall zombie freakshow that anyone has ever seen.”

In a more recent interview, Snyder adds to the hype by promising “insane zombie mayhem” and noting that the zombies were created using practical effects.

90% of our zombies are practical,” Snyder says in the below 3-hour long video, transcribed by Slashfilm: “The sort of zombie war, the action sequences and the fighting; my longtime collaborator and friend Damon Caro worked hard to create some insane zombie mayhem on an epic level, with a little splash of Vegas, just to make it cool.”

He continues by speaking to the film’s tone, which is to lovingly have fun with the genre: “I’m obsessed with the kind of tone where – I would say this – the movie has fun, but it doesn’t make fun, which is a really fine line. I really wanted to make a no-holds-barred zombie genre insanity. My cohorts over at Netflix really strapped in and went for a ride with me…we nerded out hardcore on our genre tropes, and you will see the tropiest tropification of tropes in the history of troping.”

Being that Snyder directed one of the best zombie films ever in the surprising remake of Dawn of the Dead, I think he’s earned the right to playfully fuck with the genre that he’s already once slain.

Watch for a release date in 2021.
