Zombex (2013): cast, story & where to watch

Released in 2013, Zombex is a horror film directed by Jesse Dayton, running about 80 minutes. “The revolutionary treatment guaranteed to ease your mind. Permanently.” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. ZOMBEX tells the story of a post-Katrina New Orleans as it deals with a new disaster, a zombie apocalypse. NOLA residents are no longer experiencing the depression and post-traumatic stress due to the trauma of the hurricane, thanks to the revolutionary ZOMBEX - a rogue, yet, "clinically-proven" anti-depressant pharmaceutical manufactured by a nefarious organization. For those who call the Big Easy their home, everything is just now turning around for them. Or, could it just be the drug, ZOMBEX, talking... Just as things are turning around for the city and its people, they once again must face a disaster of epic proportions. Only this time, they're dealing with the prospect of losing the people of New Orleans as they turn into the city's walking dead.

Who’s in it. Zombex stars Lew Temple as Aldous Huxtable, David Christopher as Charlie Thibideaux, Malcolm McDowell as Dr. Soulis and Sid Haig as The Commander, among others.
