‘Juan of the Dead,’ ‘Killer Barbys’ 4K Restorations to Debut on Film Movement Plus

New 4K restorations of Juan of the Dead and Killer Barbys will debut exclusively on the streaming service Film Movement Plus, also available through Prime Video.

Juan of the Dead (known in Spanish as Juan de los Muertos) will stream on April 11.

The 2011 Spanish-Cuban zombie comedy is written and directed by Alejandro Brugués (Nightmare Cinema). Alexis Díaz de Villegas, Eliécer Ramírez, Andros Perrugorría, Jorge Molina Enríquez, Jazz Vilá, Andrea Duro, and Antonio Dechent star.

When Havana falls prey to a full-blown zombie invasion, slacker Juan and his friend Lorenzo decide to profit from the crisis and set up a zombie eradication business. Before long, Juan finds himself in the money — as well as in the unfamiliar role of local hero — as he and his partner expand their ever-expanding repertoire of inventive ways to kill zombies.

Killer Barbys (also known as The Killer Barbies) will stream on April 18.

The 1996 Spanish horror film is directed by Jess Franco (Vampyros Lesbos) from a script he co-wrote with Patxi Irigoyen. Santiago Segura, Aldo Sambrell, Mariangela Giordano, Silvia Superstar, and Charlie S. Chaplin star.

A vanload of kids are stranded in a creepy hilltop castle and become the unwitting victims of an immortal, sex-crazed countess who retains her youth by feeding upon the blood of the young. The guests are members of the gore-punk band the Killer Barbies, who prove themselves quite well equipped to battle the horrors that confront them.

Hopefully physical 4K UHD releases will follow.
