Hey everyone,
I am the director for "The Undead" a brand new and original zombie film series.
"The Undead" is an unconventional Zombie film. Instead of focusing on the Zombies themselves the main focus will be on the emotional turmoil brought on by the Zombie apocalypse. The film forces us to ask ourselves: What would we do if we saw our loved ones fed on and then turned? How would we feel knowing that our family members bodies are walking around but their souls no longer inhabit them? What would be going through our minds if we had been bitten and knew it was only a matter of time until we joined "The Undead".
"The Undead" part 1 follows Joseph Mason as he tries to survive a viral outbreak causing everyone infected to die a painful, slow death, but death is not the end. The virus then reactivates a small portion of the brain effectively reanimating the individual. These reanimated people are no longer human, they are instead a feral, mindless creature with only one desire. To eat.
Joseph Mason must fight to survive the outbreak and deal with the emotional trauma of losing, everyone. Will he survive? Or will he end up joining the ranks of "The Undead"?
The goal of the "The Undead" is to concentrate on the individual person that each film is about. The first one being about Joseph Mason. Joseph Mason's wife and son are killed at the beginning of the apocalypse. The first film takes place in a shelter where Joseph has holed up. None of the films will be connected as far as characters are concerned. Each film will cover a certain characters story.The first film concentrates primarily on the emotional. Where as the following films, even though they are still character driven and dramatic, are not as much focused on emotion. What we wanted to do with the first film is to shock some people with a disturbing and emotional transition from living human, to undead monster.
The Undead is sponsored and supported by Bagogames.com and Hitfilm.com and is mostly funded. We are in need of just $1000 to secure our complete budget and have started a Kickstarter campaign to raise the final funds needed.
For more information on what the funds will be used for please check out the Kickstarter page.
You can also see our pitch video and first promo on the Kickstarter page as well.
I personally am extremely excited about The Undead. We want to take the zombie film genre in a direction that few zombie movies seem to go. I was just interviewed by a local newspaper so we have a fairly large local and international fan base already. As filmmakers, I wanted to ask you guys for help. It would be awesome if you would consider pledging but I totally understand not have funds to. So it would be just as awesome if you could help us out by sharing the page.
We are in talks with a couple of other awesome sponsors so stay tuned for updates on that as well.
Thanks for taking a peek at my project and I hope that it sparks your interest.
