We first posted word of Jorge Olguin's Chilean zombie picture Descendents (AKA Solos) in late December and we are now proud to present an exclusive look at the very first teaser for the very first zombie picture ever to come from the South American nation. There's an interesting story behind this one ... Olguin was originally supposed to make his English language debut with an adaptation of the popular Clock Tower video games, a project that seems lost in development hell, and ended up moving from that project to a generously budgeted (by South American standards) fantasy picture titled Caleuche which features Guillermo Del Toro as a producer. Though Caleuche is now shot and in post, Olguin had to play the waiting game before starting it as his lead actress was not immediately available and so he very quickly put together financing for and shot Descendents. Though very much a zombie survival picture - and one revolving around young children, which ramps the tension up rather a lot - the zombies aren't actually the primary villains here, that honor going to roving military death squads, a very definite a deliberate jab at his country's past.

The trailer's an impressive piece of work that you'll find embedded int he Twitch Video Player below the break, and be sure to check he stills gallery and website linked below.
