The Returned is a French supernatural crime series set in a small Alpine village where a group of men, women and children do not yet know that they have been dead for several years.
And while it has seen some exposure overseas, the BBC - which debuted another zombie series, In the Flesh, this year - has picked it up for the UK. Inevitably, we'll see it play here in the U.S.
After the jump, you can check out the first UK trailer...

A new domestic one-sheet for World War Z, starring Brad Pitt, has arrived. Now, while it looks very, very similar to the French teaser, there are some differences. The U.S. poster - surprisingly - has a gun strapped to Pitt's back. The cityscape is different. He's standing on a building, as opposed to hanging off the back of a cargo plane, too. Head inside for a look.
The film, opening June 21st, is based on Max Brooks' best-selling novel "World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War." The story revolves around United Nations employee Gerry Lane (Pitt), who traverses the world in a race against time to stop the Zombie pandemic that is toppling armies and governments and threatening to decimate humanity itself.

Dark Sky has revealed a new poster for Hatchet III. Well, this is one that leaked a bit earlier but has faced a few adjustments. The next chapter in the slasher saga opens in select theaters on June 14th. It will hit VOD on that day as well.
Concluding the saga begun in Adam Green's hit 2006 thriller, Hatchet III follows the vengeful Marybeth (Danielle Harris) as she continues seeking out a way to destroy Victor Crowley (Kane Hodder), a hulking, seemingly-invincible sociopath rampaging through a sleepy Louisiana swamp. While a heavily-armed team of mercenaries takes to the bayou surrounding Crowley's home, Marybeth finds herself begrudgingly teaming up with a local policeman (Zach Galligan) and his ex-wife (Caroline Williams) - an expert on the maniac who may have uncovered the secret to ending his murderous rampage once and for all.

Anthologies are all the rage now. It seems like not that long ago they were incredibly rare. Then there was Trick r’ Treat and V/H/S (and the upcoming V/H/S/2) and The ABCs of Death (which is also getting a sequel). Now cable is getting in on the action. Chiller will debut the original movie Chilling Visions: 5 Senses of Fear on Friday, May 31.
The short films are directed by some promising newcomers including Eric England (Madison County) and Jesse Holland and Andy Mitton (YellowBrickRoad). As per usual for anthologies the quality runs the gamut, but overall the entire endeavor is lacking in imagination. It only really comes to life in the home stretch. The first three entries are pretty lackluster.
