Zombies of Juan of the Dead
Ikwabizwa ngokuba: Juan of the Dead
Juan of the Dead sets a zombie outbreak in Cuba and uses it for political satire. Its slacker hero sees a business opportunity, and the state blames American-backed dissidents. It was the first Cuban independent film to receive state approval.1
