If you’ve been thinking lately that y’know what, there just hasn’t been a good old fashioned scary zombie movie of late (what are you, a monster?) then don’t fret, lover of the undead.
A new Irish zombie flick will be hitting cinemas in February and starts A-listers Ellen Page, Sam Keeley and Tom Vaughan-Lawlor.

The Cured will be released in Irish cinemas in February. Valentine’s date night idea?
