"NIGHT OF THE ZOOPOCALYPSE" (2025) Brings Together Adorable Zoo Animals And Outer Space Zombies! (TRAILER)

Kid-friendly horror movies are something of a lost art these days, and it’s a shame because so many of those movies were foundational in making us the genre-loving fans we are today. We aren’t here to point fingers as to why this has happened, but it certainly may have something to do with the push back and stigma that horror still gets, and how children’s entertainment these days is less risky and more safe, for better or worse we aren’t to say. Regardless, this means that there is ample space for someone to come in and start serving his market of future horror fiends, and would you guess that it would involve Clive Barker?

Coming March 7, 2025 from Viva Pictures is “Night of the Zoopocalypse” which is inspired by a story from the master of the macabre, Clive Barker. Check out the trailer below to get a glimpse of what kind of kid-friendly frights are in store, and keep an open mind as we bring the younger generations into our fear-filled fold!
