Full Trailer for Clever Zombie Film ‘We Bury The Dead’ w/ Daisy Ridley

“You want to know why only some of them come back? They’re the ones with unfinished business.” Vertical has debuted the main official trailer for a horror thriller film titled We Bury The Dead, made by genre filmmaker Zak Hilditch from Australia. This premiered at the 2025 SXSW Film Festival earlier in the year to superb reviews – and it’s currently set to open in January 2026 right after New Years. After a catastrophic military disaster in Tasmania leaves many people gone from a disease, the dead don’t just rise – they hunt. Ava searches for her missing husband among the dead, but what she finds is far more terrifying. Ava joins a “body retrieval unit,” but her search takes a chilling turn when the corpses she’s burying start showing signs of life. The film stars Daisy Ridley, Brenton Thwaites, Matt Whelan, Chloe Hurst, Kym Jackson, Mark Coles Smith. It’s a clever concept in the zombie subgenre, with reviews saying it delivers “bursts of genuine scares in the process and an awe-inducing sense of scale.” What a fantastic trailer! I’ve seen this one already and it’s quite good and more unsettling than scary. Zombie fans must watch it when it’s in theaters. // Continue Reading ›
