Plaga Zombie is an Argentine comedy horror film series created by Pablo Parés, Berta Muñiz, and Hernán Sáez. The films follow three misfit heroes who uncover an alien-government conspiracy after a zombie outbreak occurs in their hometown. Plaga Zombie was the first-ever zombie horror film released in Argentina[1][2] and is the only zombie horror trilogy to be produced in Latin America.

Plaga Zombie received mainstream coverage from Fangoria and was picked up by its horror label, Fangoria Films International, helping the series to attain a worldwide cult following.[3][4] The latest installment of the series, Plaga Zombie: American Invasion, began production in the summer of 2013.[5][6]
