The French zombie television series The Returned premieres tonight on the Sundance Channel at 9pm ET.
"In an idyllic French mountain town, a seemingly random collection of people find themselves in a state of confusion as they attempt to return to their homes. What they do not yet know is that they have been dead for several years, and no one is expecting them back. As they struggle to reintegrate with their families and past lovers, buried secrets emerge and new mysteries develop as they grapple with a miraculous and sinister new reality. But it seems they are not the only ones to have returned from the dead. Their arrival coincides with a series of gruesome murders which bear a chilling resemblance to the work of a serial killer from the past."
The Returned was created by Fabrice Gobert and stars Pierre Perrier, Yara Pilartz, Céline Sallette, and Jenna Thiam.
