One of the most enduring independent filmmakers in American cinema history, Jim Jarmusch has been bringing his unique slant on the world to screens since the early 80s. In all that time he's never worked with a budget of more than $10 million, and as a result, he's never really had to compromise his vision for anyone or anything.

Actors will line up to work for scale just to work with him, which explains why there are so many recognizable faces in his latest film, The Dead Don't Die. I never knew that I needed Jarmusch's take on the zombie film, though I suppose I never knew that I needed his take on samurai or vampire movies until I saw Ghost Dog and Only Lovers Left Alive.

Jarmusch regulars Adam Driver and Bill Murray co-star as cops in a town where a zombie outbreak is occurring and they have to take down the armies of undead with the help of some locals including Steve Buscemi, Chloë Sevigny, Danny Glover, Caleb Landry Jones (whom I embarrassingly thought was Joan Cusack at first glance), Rosie Perez, Iggy Pop, Carol Kane, RZA, Selena Gomez, Tom Waits, and a sword-wielding Tilda Swinton.

Yeah, there's no way I'm not there opening night for this one, which is currently scheduled for Friday June 14.
