As a long-time fan of the undead, I can hardly contain my excitement for Netflix‘s upcoming original zombie movie, “Outside”. Having lived through multiple zombie apocalypses (in movies and TV shows, of course), I have developed an appreciation for the unique ways filmmakers explore this sub-genre. The trailer alone has me hooked, with its blend of intense scares, suspense, and dark themes like generational trauma and abuse.
As a die-hard movie enthusiast, I can’t contain my excitement! Netflix has just unveiled the full trailer for their very first original zombie flick, produced right here in the Philippines. Titled “Outside,” this chilling thriller is helmed by none other than the renowned director, Carlo Ledesma. Mark your calendars, fellow horror fans, because it’s set to premiere on Netflix on October 17, 2024. I can hardly wait for the intense scares and suspense that this movie promises, all set against the captivating backdrop of our tropical paradise!
In the story of “Outside“, a family of four, headed by their volatile father Francis, find themselves on the run when a zombie infestation breaks out. Seeking sanctuary from “The Dead Ones”, they retreat to a remote farmhouse with family members Iris, Josh, and Lucas. However, they later discover a hidden truth from their past. The film features Sid Lucero, Beauty Gonzales, Marco Masa, and Aiden Patdu. In this production, Lucero portrays the tormented Francis, Gonzales takes on the role of the resilient Iris, while Masa and Patdu play the fearful yet courageous sons Josh and Lucas respectively.
Although it falls under the genre of post-apocalyptic survival horror, the film “Outside” explores heavy topics such as generational trauma, morality, and abuse. While the trailer suggests plenty of zombie encounters, the movie maintains a foreboding atmosphere when delving into its core narrative, as the family grapples with insurmountable odds. With Ledesma directing, “Outside” promises to be an extraordinary blend of horror and social critique. Notably, Ledesma is recognized for his work in horror films, including “The Tunnel” and “The Belko Experiment.
