Project Summary
23 Years Later — The Castle of the Dead is an independent zombie horror film directed by Uwe Boll, positioning itself as an unofficial sequel to his 2003 House of the Dead adaptation. The film reunites original stars Jonathan Cherry and Ona Grauer and shifts the action from a zombie-infested house to a castle setting. Boll is directing from a script co-written with Lutz Geiger, with longtime producing partner Michael Roesch producing and Boris Wolffgardt co-producing. While the film has no official connection to Sega's House of the Dead video game franchise due to rights issues, it continues the zombie survival horror tone of Boll's original. Principal photography is set to begin September 5 in Germany, marking Boll's return to the video game-inspired horror territory that defined his early filmmaking career.
