Zombies Have Invaded CUBA!!!!
No that wasn’t a political statement. Zombies have invaded Cuba and only one man can save Havana…his name is JUAN!
Writer/Director Alejandro Brugués brings “Juan of the Dead”, a dark comedy to the zombie franchise that gained acclaim from fans and critics alike for it’s humour and innovative zombie kills amongst the backdrop of Cuba’s tropical paradise.
Juan’s a bit of a rogue, and never seems to be able to hold down a steady money-earning job. But he also knows how to survive with a keen sense of street smarts. When the people of Havana face a massive outbreak of the undead, he comes up with his latest get-rich-quick scheme: for the right fee, he’ll put down people’s infected loved ones.
But with so many zombies to kill, Juan has to bring in a bunch of lowlifes from the streets to help him with the business. With few resources to hand, Juan and his misfit crew are forced to improvise, and together they come up with clever ways to kill zombies. Many of their methods backfire, but that’s half the fun of this movie: watching a group of complete unprofessionals try and ply their trade in the midst of an apocalypse!
