Premiering at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, Little Monsters takes the zombie comedy to new and absurd heights to deliver a hilarious feel-good film.
After lampooning racism and ignorance in the hilarious Down Under 2016, actor-turned-director Abe Forsythe unleashes optimism, a kindergarten class and a kick-ass teacher on unchecked masculinity, militarisation and the zombie apocalypse. Forsythe’s irreverent and razor-sharp wit is played to perfection by his all-star cast, including Josh Gad (Frozen 2013) and Alexander England (Alien: Covenant 2017). Academy Award-winner Lupita Nyong’o (Black Panther 2018) shines as the school mistress who’s handy with a shovel.
