On paper, new horror movie We Bury the Dead is a zombie movie; it's big on post-apocalyptic vibes, as it charts a woman's desperate search for her husband after an experimental weapon is detonated in Tasmania and turns locals into violent, walking corpses. Its moving, melancholic focus on the brain-chomper's cut-short time, though, feels more in-keeping with a ghost flick.
It's not a big surprise to learn, then, that the final thing writer-director Zak Hilditch added to the script were the undead.
