What We Do In The Shadows

I was going through the Enzian's upcoming films (Enzian is Central Florida's art house cinema! They hold a monthly FilmSlam for indies, I think students only, and it's pretty awesome!) and I noticed they will be showing What We Do In The Shadows, so I'll be watching this in the cinema now since I liked the film already.

This clearly means they funded and will have their movie in art house cinemas around the country! Go ahead and check out the list if you're in the US or Canada (or just Enzian if you wanna see me in Orlando lol)

Cinema Release Dates and Locations
 
I got to see this tonight. On the downside, if you've see the trailer, then you've pretty much seen the highlights of the whole film, and pretty much all or most of the major laughs. On the upside, it was still a lot of fun. I'm sure I'll have to buy the DVD (not available on Blu-ray, apparently).
 
Where there is a will there is a way?

With the right creativity, money can be made no object.

What We Do In The Shadows is a mockumentary about Vampires that came out last year by New Zealand filmmakers Taika Waititi ("Two Cars, One Night", "Boy," currently writing "Moana" for Disney) and Jemaine Clement ("Eagle Vs Shark", one half and writer of "Flight of the Conchords").

Without doing anything particularly new, they managed to make tired and cliched genre of mockumentary pretty hilarious. I read about 90% of the film is 'improvised' (though I believe they had a plot outline, and were imrpovising the dialogue). It was hugely popular in New Zealand, and has been reviewed incredibly well overseas. They've got distribution in a number of overseas markets, but been struggling to do so in the US.

Anyway, check out the trailer, if you like it, maybe you US folk can donate a little to their kickstarter? :) I know most of us can barely afford to give to crowd funding campaigns, but I think I feel some nationalistic obligation to share it.
