The official trailer and poster for NEON’s Handling the Undead recently released, and you can check them out below. Check out our review of the film here.

On a hot summer day in Oslo, the dead mysteriously awaken, and three families are thrown into chaos when their deceased loved ones come back to them. Who are they, and what do they want? A family is faced with the mother’s reawakening before they have even mourned her death after a car accident; an elderly woman gets the love of her life back the same day she has buried her; a grandfather rescues his grandchild from the gravesite in a desperate attempt to get his daughter out of her depression. Handling the Undead is a drama with elements of horror about three families, a story about grief and loss, but also about hope and understanding of what we can’t comprehend or control.

The film is directed by Thea Hvistendahl, who wrote the screenplay along with John Ajvide Lindqvist. The film stars Renate Reinsve, Anders Danielsen Lie, Bjørn Sundquis, Bente Børsum, Bahar Pars and Inesa Dauksta. It’s based on the book of the same name by John Ajvide Lindqvist.

In theaters May 31.
