THE EXPERIENCE

Premiering at this year’s SXSW Film Festival, Maya Annik Bedward’s illuminating doc Black Zombie unearths the hidden history of the zombie film and its origins in the cane fields of Haiti – featuring interviews with special effects pioneer Tom Savini, Grammy-winning guitarist Slash, author and film scholar Tananarive Due, acclaimed singer and Vodou priest Erol Josué, and more.

“Fascinatingly unpacks the origins of one of the most popular horror genres of all time.” – Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com

“An eye-opening reclamation.”– Valerie Kalfrin, AWFJ

“An act of reclamation…Moves with confidence through history and culture… Black Zombie demands you reconsider both the horrors humans are capable of and the untold beauty of the living and the dead.” – Jesse Cape, The Austin Chronicle

ON SCREEN: Black Zombie

2026. Directed by Maya Annik Bedward. Runtime: 1 hour 30 minutes. 

Black Zombie digs beneath the blood-soaked spectacle of modern horror to uncover the zombie’s buried origins. Born from enslavement, spiritual belief, and resistance, it first emerged in Haiti before becoming one of pop culture’s most profitable monsters. The film traces its evolution from the cane fields of colonial Haiti, to White Zombie, Night of the Living Dead and The Serpent and the Rainbow. Part cultural reckoning, part horror remix, Black Zombie is a bold reexamination of one of horror’s most iconic figures.
