Zack Snyder has sort of taken up the mantle of resident zombie film expert. His breakout film was the remake of Dawn of the Dead and now he’s on to a new zombie flick. Army of the Dead comes from Netflix and follows a group of mercenaries that attempt a bank heist in the middle of a zombie outbreak.

So, naturally this means that there’s going to be some apprehension among the group and the others around them. Snyder is directing the film and co-wrote it with Shay Hatten, and upcoming Obi-Wan series writer, Joby Harold.
