Joe Dante ‘Buries the Ex’ in Venice!

Our Fearless Leader’s new film, Burying The Ex, premieres today at the Venice Film Festival. The touching story of “Boy meets girl, boy loses girl, girl becomes flesh-eating zombie” showcases four terrific young actors, Anton Yelchin (Star Trek, Fright Night), Ashley Greene (The Twilight Saga), Oliver Cooper (Project X) and True Detective‘s Alexandra Daddario. Here‘s an interview with Anton talking about Burying The Ex and the upcoming Star Trek.

Joe describes his latest as a “zom-com” and that pretty much nails this fractured fairytale in which a young woman’s death doesn’t stop her from snuggling with her beloved boyfriend. Here’s a recent interview with Joe via Shock Till You Drop.
