Wild Zero 2 to Bring Back Guitar Wolf and Zombie Mayhem – Bloody Disgusting

Wild Zero 2 to Bring Back Guitar Wolf and Zombie Mayhem – Bloody Disgusting

If there’s one thing that 1999’s raucous zombie movie Wild Zero taught us, it’s that Rock ‘n Roll never dies. That still holds true over twenty years later, as the underrated gem is gearing up to launch a crowdfunding campaign for sequel Wild Zero 2.

The Kickstarter to realize production of Wild Zero 2 kicks off on March 10, teasing rewards that include putting backers into the film as zombies.

Japanese rock band Guitar Wolf will be back to take on the zombie horde in ultra-cool style. Based on a proof of concept teaser, below, the band will have their work cut out for them as it appears that the rock spirit has died on Earth. Moreover, a mysterious new “Wolf Girl” may be the key to it all.

In director Tetsuro Takeuchi’s Wild Zero, “Only legendary Japanese garage rock band Guitar Wolf can stand between a race of aliens from destroying earth with an army of zombies.”

The horror comedy is based on a simple setup: aliens are responsible for unleashing the zombie apocalypse and only Japanese rock band Guitar Wolf can save the day. Essentially playing out like one feature length music video that puts Guitar Wolf’s distortion infused, punk-influenced attitude and sound at the forefront while they slaughter zombies along the way. It’s an absolute blast, complete with unforgettable dialogue, including “Love has no borders, nationalities, or genders!”

Of course, not much else is known about Wild Zero 2 just yet, including who’s attached to direct. All will likely be revealed on March 10, but any news of a Wild Zero sequel is worth getting amped about now.
