Trailer: Bin Laden is Back in Osombie
Osama Bin Laden is back. Except, this time, he's a zombie in the indie horror film Osombie. No, we're not making this up.
The film is currently in post-production and a trailer has been released. Surprisingly, the production value is fairly solid and it approaches the material with a straight face. Eve Mauro co-stars; you might remember her from Wicked Lake. And Corey Sevier, of the upcoming Apartment 1303, is the leading man who finds every chance to tear off his shirt. Behind the camera is director John Lyde.

The story follows Dusty, a yoga instructor from Colorado, who is on a desperate rescue mission to save her crazy brother Derek, a conspiracy theorist who is convinced Osama Bin Laden is still alive, despite having been buried at sea. In Afghanistan, Dusty falls in with a team of NATO Special Forces on a secret assignment. Turns out Derek is not so crazy after all, and that Osama has returned from his watery grave and is making an army of zombie terrorists. When the group crashes headlong into the growing zombie apocalypse, Dusty and the troops must find and destroy the root of the zombie insurgency before it infests the rest of the world. Sure, some of the efffects are still raw, but the film isn't complete and it is currently seeking post-production funds. Goofy? Hell yes, but like I said, much better looking than I expected based on a title like that.
