Zombies Invade Chile In Jorge Olguin’s SOLOS
Posted by Todd Brown at 7:03pm.
Posted in Film News , Horror, Mexico & South America.
At one point attached to direct the big screen adaptation of popular video games series The Clock Tower, young Chilean director Jorge Olguin has certainly landed on his feet since that project seemingly slipped into development hell. He managed to enlist Guillermo Del Toro as a producer on his fantasy picture Caleuche - in post now - and while waiting for his lead actress to become available for that one he quietly snuck out and shot another film on the sly. That picture is Solos. Billed as the first ever Chilean zombie film, Olguin promises that it is a hard edged picture laced with heavy political criticism and if early reports are true it would seem he’s charting some unusual ground here. The lead characters are all children trapped in a violent war zone and while there are certainly zombies present they are not the primary villains of the piece - that honor goes to the human soldiers. A dig at his country’s violent history? Absolutely.
We’re trying to dig up more information on this one but in the mean time we’ve got eight stills from the picture recently released by Olguin on the film’s website.
