'Kingdom': Netflix piles on the gore with classic-style final trailer for South Korean period zombie horror

The trailer reveals the transformational moments of these dead people, as they twitch and groan, blood oozing out of their mouths - clearly no scene for the faint-hearted
PUBLISHED JAN 7, 2019

Netflix has done its thing again and transformed the zombie horror genre by introducing an aura of style and grandeur in its upcoming series, 'Kingdom.' However, the most recent official trailer stuck to the classic approach. Brimming with South Korean medieval grandeur that the show's setting calls for, the latest trailer for 'Kingdom' paints the signature gory side of the zombies as the dead rise against the living amid deep political conspiracies.

As the plot synopsis reveals: "In a kingdom defeated by corruption and famine, a mysterious rumor of the king’s death spreads, as does a strange plague that renders the infected immune to death and hungry for flesh. The crown prince, fallen victim to a conspiracy, sets out on a journey to unveil the evil scheme and save his people."
