Black Zombie
Black Zombie is a 2026 Canadian documentary film written and directed by Maya Annik Bedward. The film profiles the roots of zombie mythology in Haitian Vodou, exploring the ways in which its evolution from a folkloric metaphor for slavery into a trope of horror and monster fiction have distorted and disrupted Black history. The film premiered on March 13, 2026, at the South by Southwest Film & TV Festival, and had its Canadian premiere on April 24 at the Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival. In June 2026, Kino Lorber acquired U.S. distribution rights to the film.
