This week, Netflix dropped the trailer for Kingdom, one of their exciting new 2019 offerings [1] that drops in January. The show takes us back to Korea's medieval Joseon period, but there's an unsettling twist: it seems a mysterious plague is spreading across the kingdom. The official synopsis says we'll follow a crown prince who has been "framed for treason" and "sets out on a journey to unveil what evil lurks in the dark" to save his people.

We've seen plenty of zombie media over the years, but it does feel flesh . . . I mean fresh to hearken back to a bygone era for the story. Everything will be different: the methods (and weapons) used for fighting the creatures; communications between civilizations; even the unique facets of historic Korean culture will bring in intriguing new points of view. Watch the trailer above to see how tensions rise, because we've got just over a month to prep for a different kind of zombie apocalypse. Kingdom drops on Jan. 25, 2019.
