The acclaimed Cuban zombie comedy (with one of the punniest taglines going) is coming to DVD this month.

"It's the anniversary of the Cuban Revolution, and as the hungry undead make an unwelcomed appearance, best friends Juan (Alexis Días de Villegas) and Lázardo (Jorge Molina) decide to parlay their skills for dispatching zombies into a professional career. 'Juan of the dead killed their loved ones'is their slogan, and their mission is to help people get rid of those infected around them ... for a price. As the government attempts to maintain public order by blaming the fracas on Americans who they claim are attempting to topple the current regime, Juan and Lazardo rally the troops, gather their weapons, and prepare to make a killing by ridding Cuba of zombies one shambling, flesh-eating corpse at a time."

Alejandro Brugues horror-comedy, apparently both hilarious and quite subversive, has had nary a bad word spoken of it. Accompanying the film, you'll find

• Behind the scenes featurette

• Deleted Scenes

• Interviews

JUAN OF THE DEAD is out August 14.
