New UK poster for Warm Bodies

Warm Bodies has released a brand new UK poster online, featuring a zombified Nicholas Hoult looking rather the worse for wear.

The film is set in a post-apocalyptic vision of the future in which vast swathes of earth's population have been afflicted by a zombie-like plague.

R (Hoult) is just another brain-muncher until he feasts on the heart of one luckless teen, and finds himself absorbing his feelings of love towards his girlfriend (Teresa Palmer).

Love being a powerful emotion, it isn't long before R starts to reconnect with his old human self. However, not everyone is ready to accept the idea of a reformed zombie without a shotgun in hand...

Take a look at the new poster, below:

We launched the poster exclusively on Twitter this morning , and are enjoying the pleasingly blood-spattered vibe its got going on. Nice zombie-hand detailing on the "I" of "bodies" too.

Directed by Jonathan Levine and co-starring John Malkovich, Rob Corddry and Analeigh Tipton, Warm Bodies opens in the UK on 8 February 2013.
