If you're a fan of Japanese splatter films, then your Thanksgiving just got a lot messier - and zanier - as what we have for you here are the first details on madman Yoshihiro Nishimura's Zombie TV, including several stills and a trailer. Put on a raincoat, and dig in!
From the Press Relesae:
Zombie TV is the splatter-ific new zom-com-omnibus from the fertile and twisted mind of acclaimed cult filmmaker and special effects makeup genius Yoshihiro Nishimura (Tokyo Gore Police, Helldriver, The ABCs of Death).
A Monty Python-esque collection of shorts, animation, sketch comedy, instructional videos, and more, Zombie TV showcases the natural evolution of zombies in the 21st century, no longer a frightening menace, but rather an annoying neighbor you realize you simply have to put up with.

Yoshihiro Nishimura, makeup FX maestro and creator of the outrageous horror comedies Tokyo Gore Police and Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl, is back with another over-the-top feature: the “zom-com” anthology Zombie TV. A collection of live-action and animated shorts, mock instructional videos and other surreal oddities, Zombie TV mimics the format of late-night TV channel surfing to show “the natural evolution of zombies in the 21st century,” depicting the undead not as dangerous monsters but as more of a day-to-day annoyance. It also offers some unique answers to long-standing questions like “How did zombies evolve from walkers into runners?” and “How do zombies have sex?” The anthology marks the first team-up between Nishimura, up-and-coming director Naoya Tashiro (Hell of the College Girls), and Manga artist/animator Maelie Makuno.
