The Zombies of America: Inside the Tranq Epidemic Devouring U.S. Streets
Fentanyl was already the deadliest drug in U.S. history — now it’s being mixed with xylazine, creating “Tranq,” a flesh-eating cocktail turning entire neighborhoods into open-air nightmares. This raw, unfiltered look into Philadelphia’s Kensington district exposes a crisis most people never see — and many refuse to believe is real.
We selected “The Zombies of America” because it forces us to confront an epidemic that’s too easy to ignore. The film captures the devastating impact of fentanyl and xylazine (“Tranq”) on individuals and communities — not through statistics, but through faces, stories, and stark reality. It’s a haunting reminder that this isn’t just about drugs; it’s about the collapse of healthcare, housing, and hope in America’s forgotten corners. We appreciate how the filmmakers stripped away sensationalism to show the human cost with honesty and compassion.
