EastWest’s zombies sell like hotcakes
Vienna-based seller EastWest Filmdistribution has announced that German zombie flick Rammbock [+see also:

film profile] has been bought for a large number of territories.
Helmed by Marvin Kren and produced by moneypenny filmproduktion, the film centres on Michael, who is plunged into horror when he arrives in Berlin to visit his girlfriend Gabi. In fact, the girl isn’t there and a virus is quickly turning the whole population into murderers, forcing Michael to barricade himself in her apartment building with an apprentice plumber.
The film had its international premiere at Toronto (before starting a festival tour) but sales were launched at the Cannes Market. It was released in Germany and Austria in September.
The title will be released in the United Kingdom at the end of this month (through Revolver Entertainment) and has also sold to Japan, the United States, Romania (Transilvania Film), Poland (Spectator), the Czech Republic and Slovakia (Verbascum), Estonia (Exit Film), Bulgaria (Cine EU) and Latvia (Rija Film). Negotiations are underway with France and several Asian countries.
Rammbock will be on EastWest’s catalogue at the American Film Market.
