Black Zombie is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Maya Annik Bedward and released in 2026.[1] 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.[2]
The film premiered on March 13, 2026, at the 2026 South by Southwest Film & TV Festival,[3] and had its Canadian premiere on April 24 at the Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival.[1]
