Finally, the wait is over! Gunpowder & Sky“s horror brand ALTER, DIGA Studios and Full Fathom Five announced today that teen zombie horror film, Eat, Brains, Love, hits select theaters across the country and simultaneously makes its global debut on iTunes, Amazon, FandangoNOW, Google Play, Microsoft Xbox, Sony Playstation, Vudu and Redbox, on Friday, February 14th.
Starring Jake Cannavale (Nurse Jackie) as “Jake“, Angelique Rivera (American Crime) as ”˜Amanda“, Sarah Yarkin (American Horror Story) as ”˜Cass“ and Alex Stage (“Cloak & Dagger”“) as ”˜Kyle“ and directed by Rodman Flender (Idol Hands, “Scream: The TV Series”“), Eat, Brains, Love is a gory and funny zombie-rom-com based on the living dead road trip novel by Jeff Hart.
Eat, Brains, Love has received praise from the top horror critics in the industry. Dread Central celebrated the film as “zombie comedy at its finest. Stands on its own two rotting feet as one of the funniest and most memorable teenage zombie movies we“ve seen in years”“.
The good news: Jake“s dream girl, Amanda, finally knows his name. The bad? It“s because they both contracted a sexually transmitted mysterious zombie virus and devoured half their senior class. Now they“re on the run from the government as they search for a cure, all while weighing up the existential question of who really deserves to be eaten alive.
