Every zombie movie operates under their own set of rules for surviving a zombie apocalypse. And Jim Jarmusch's latest zombie comedy "The Dead Don't Die" is keeping things pretty simple.

"You gotta kill the head," says Adam Driver in a new teaser spot, which provides a rundown of three steps of how to kill the undead: "1. Choose Your Weapon. 2. Kill The Head. 3. Repeat." Well, that sounds simple enough.

Driver is one of the many big-name actors starring in this offbeat horror movie, which is set in a small, sleepy American town and follows a sheriff (Bill Murray) and his deputy (Driver) as they investigate a bizarre murder case that turns out to be the first signs of a burgeoning zombie apocalypse.

The film, which is written and directed by indie auteur Jarmusch (Paterson, Only Lovers Left Alive, Stranger Than Paradise), also features Tilda Swinton as a samurai sword-wielding mortician; Danny Glover as a local auto mechanic; Chloe Sevigny as a fellow deputy officer; Steve Buscemi as an unsuspecting home owner, and legendary punk-rocker Iggy Pop as a grave-rotten zombie.

"The Dead Don't Die" is scheduled to make its world premiere next week at the Cannes Film Festival, before arriving in theaters on June 14th.
