A trailer for Juan de los Muertos, an awesome-looking (if not somewhat bloody) Cuban zombie-comedy set in Havana critiquing a heedless Castro government and the Cuba-policy of the United States.
From the New York Times:
The day after Havana is invaded by the living dead, Juan and Sara emerge from their dilapidated apartment building to find the streets filled with people roving aimlessly, their wide eyes blank.
“It all looks the same to me,” Sara shrugs.
“Cuban reality is so incredible that there are things in the movie that seem like you made them up, but in fact they are based on truth,” said Alejandro Brugués, the 35-year-old director, who was born in Argentina but grew up in Cuba. “I just put zombies in the scenario, instead of real people.”
Mr. Brugués insisted that that the film is “social commentary, not political.”
