ZOMBIES GO MAD MAX. WHAT’S NOT TO LOVE?
Every monster, whether it be a vampire, a werewolf, a space alien, started off in the movies as a villain. But after a while, they get to be the hero. But that hasn’t really happened for the zombie yet (at least, not in a straightforward action movie). It’s time to change that.
It’s time for zombies to get their day as the hero. And while we’re at it, let’s put them in a Mad Max-style post-apocalyptic world full of desert outposts, off-road vehicles, flamethrowers, and mayhem.
Sound like your idea of a great short film? Us too.
THE STORY
A stranger wanders out of the wasteland into one of humanity’s last outposts. He is one of the Undying. Unable to die. Almost impossible to kill. But he will risk his immortal life… for love.
THE WORLD
In this movie, the zombies are the warrior heroes, and the humans are the despicable bad guys. In their dystopian future, the moon has been torn asunder, cities have turned to deserts, and civilization has withered down to vicious, isolated, warring tribes.
WHO IS MAKING THIS MOVIE?
