Zombies 4 Synopsis
The franchise's fourth installment follows Zed and Addison as they embark on a road trip the summer after their first year of college. As adventures unfold, they unexpectedly discover the warring worlds of Sunnyside and Shadyside and come into contact with Nova, Victor, Vera, Ray, and Vargas on their summer travels. Zombies, werewolves, and aliens alike are shocked by the meeting of two new supernatural groups. The movie was written by Josh Cagan and David Light & Joseph Raso. Executive producers include Milo Manheim, Meg Donnelly, Hoen, Light, Raso, Jane Fleming ("The Quest"), and Mark Ordesky ("The Lord of the Rings" film trilogy). Mahita P. Simpson is a co-executive producer on "ZOMBIES 4" (working title), which is a production of Bloor Street Productions.
After the last film, many thought, and rightfully so, that the cast was moving on and that it would be the final film in the franchise; well, I guess we were all wrong. To be honest, this is pretty great news. Manheim and Donnelly are really fun together in these roles, and the movies have all been very entertaining, with great music as well. Are they better than The Descendents? That is a tough one; the two are always compared to one another, fairly or not. I would give the film quality edge to Zombies for sure, but the music is much closer.
There is no release date for Zombies 4 yet, however, I would think they will try to get this one out for the fall/winter.
