About this project

We have completed principle photography in Northern Maine on 16mm film with the help of an amazing cast & crew. See our website for more information on l'équipe fantastique!

---- Film Synopsis ----
The Zombies are Coming to Town! is a clash between the punk-rock style of independent film making and the hilarity of the modern Zombie movie. The film pays homage to such classics as Night of the Living Dead and Return of the Living Dead (1-4) while leeching off the gore of movies like Darkness: The Vampire Version and Zombie.

Taking place in Caribou, Maine, the local population is affected by a cloud of sinister gas leaking from a government canister on an abandoned Air Force Base. While the people picnicking near the Base are affected first, we follow a group of young people led by Moose and Brenda through the harrowing and hilarious bloodbath of a zombie invasion.

Everything changes, though, when it comes to light that this is just a movie. But how can this be just a movie when the zombies are real?

---- Budget Breakdown ----
We've finished principle photography and now we need to raise money for processing. We have approximately 10,000ft of footage and processing is .39/ft. This adds up to $3,900! We also need to pay for color correction, which charges hourly (will cost anywhere from $95-$250/hour for about 5 hours equalling $475-$1250). We also need to purchase EO Insurance which will cost $2500. This leaves $450 which will help cover kickstarter & amazon fees.

Anything raised past these costs will go towards the purchase of a 35mm print and the film's Premier at the Braden.
