[projekktor id=’21630′]

Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse is an undead comedy directed by Christopher Landon (Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones). The film stars Tye Sheridan, David Koechner, Cloris Leachman¸ Halston Sage, Logan Miller, Joey Morgan, Sarah Dumont and Patrick Schwarzenegger.

Three scouts and lifelong friends join forces with one badass cocktail waitress to become the world’s most unlikely team of heroes. When their peaceful town is ravaged by a zombie invasion, they’ll fight for the badge of a lifetime and put their scouting skills to the test to save mankind from the undead.

Talking about his inspiration for the film Landon explains,”I grew up watching movies like The Goonies, Monster Squad, and Gremlins. They had such a playful and quirky energy. I wanted to bring that same spirit to SCOUTS GUIDE TO THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE. But to push things a little further, I added a dash of Raimi to the mix. I think the result is something that feels contemporary but at the same time undeniably throw-back. I wanted the movie to have an 80’s type of charm that I feel has been missing from the mainstream for some time. There is also definitely a personal connection between myself and the three Scouts in the movie. I had a hard time letting go of childhood things and was sort of reluctantly dragged into manhood.”

Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse is rated 18A.
