Ahead of its theatrical release this week, a trailer has arrived online for Zombie Town, the upcoming adaptation of R.L. Stine’s 2012 novel of the same name from director Peter Lepeniotis.

The family comedy horror follows teens Amy (Madi Monroe) and Mike (Marlon Kazadi) as they seek the help of an infamous filmmaker (Dan Akroyd) who he is screening his first film in three decades in their local theatre after they watch a cursed film reel which turns the citizens of their small town into hungry zombies.
