Night of the Zoopocalypse

Night of the Zoopocalypse

Victorian Premiere

A surprisingly clever, amusing entry-level horror movie for younger viewers who are ready for a scary-but-fun adventure.’ – Common Sense Media

From the mind of Clive Barker comes the cutest and funniest mutant animal zombie film for kids you are ever likely to see.

When a meteorite crashes into a zoo, it unleashes a virus that transforms the animals into slobbering zombie mutants. A young grey wolf trying to find the rest of her pack teams up with a gruff and fearsome mountain lion named Dan and an adorable pygmy hippo named Poot. As the zoo is overrun, the unlikely trio race against time to find a way to get the other animals back to normal. Together with the help of a motley crew of survivors – a movie-obsessed lemur, a fiery capybara, a sarcastic ostrich and a pompous proboscis monkey – they embark on a perilous mission to rescue the zoo and defeat the deranged mutant-king bunny that is determined to spread the virus beyond the zoo walls to unleash the zoopocalypse!

Parental guidance: Some scenes may be too scary for sensitive viewers.
