The Ford Brothers are heading to India. The directors of cult horror The Dead – a zombie epic set in Africa – are switching continents for its sequel.

Speaking at the FrightFest Halloween All-Nighter, Howard Ford unveiled the below teaser, and revealed that principal photography would commence next February.

He then explained: “Jon and I have been receiving so much enthusiasm and demand for a sequel we owe it to the fans of The Dead to deliver something that goes way beyond what we could achieve first time around and the starting point was to find the most stunning and varied landscapes where we have not seen the dead walk before."

His brother Jon added: “Part Two has to be another journey movie with varied terrains but challenges for our main characters that contain all of the gritty detail that people liked from the first film. There will be a lot more action and more scares along the way but we don't want to lose any of the little details that kept it feeling real."

Chris Tilly is Entertainment Editor for IGN and really rather liked The Dead. His idle chat can be found on both Twitter and MyIGN.
