Revival (2025)

Revival is a gripping drama thriller set in rural Wisconsin where the dead mysteriously rise from their graves one miraculous day, yet remain unchanged in behavior and appearance. The story follows Officer Dana Cypress, a dedicated single mother who faces the challenge of solving a complex murder case in a town where both the living and the undead are suspects. As Dana navigates this eerie and suspenseful environment, she must unravel the truth behind the rising dead and the dark secrets they conceal.

Created by Luke Boyce and Aaron B. Koontz, the series explores themes of mystery, morality, and the blurred lines between life and death. The narrative’s tension builds as the townspeople, living and undead alike, become embroiled in suspicion, and Officer Cypress struggles to protect her family while maintaining law and order.

The cast includes Steven Ogg as Blaine Abel, Melanie Scrofano in the lead role of Dana Cypress, and David James Elliott portraying Wayne Cypress. Supporting performances by Gia Sandhu, CM Punk, Romy Weltman, Lara Jean Chorostecki, and Nicky Guadagni contribute to the layered storytelling and emotional depth of the series.
