TV Pilot/Webseries | 22min
So what in blazes is this "Super Sunshine Death Squad" anyway? Another run-of-the-mill zombie flick? How could you even think that? No, this is a run-of-the-mill "reality" show. But with zombies. Twenty-two awkward minutes of zombies."The Walking Dead" meets "The Office" (when it was funny).
The Story
After zombies took over the world and humans became an endangered species, an inept team of part-time human-hunters is confronted with zero results and new competition and now must realistically assess the future of their failing business, the "Super Sunshine Death Squad".
Picking up exactly where humans left off, zombies now struggle with traffic, allergies, car loans, cube farms, parenting, FICO scores, corporate mergers, parallel parking, finding love, groceries, violent rages at inappropriate times and that funny little thing called life.
The Low-Down
This teaser trailer was shot for a total of $60 bucks. Imagine what we can do with 99.98589% more! Tickles your brain, doesn't it?
Funds will cover: food for cast & crew, permits, travel, makeup, promotional materials, script consultation, festival entry fees, and lots of other misc. items.
Filming begins this summer, with a projected final edit by November.
With the pilot completed, we will promote the ever-living crap out of it. And you'll be a part of something amazing. A finished project. About cube-dwelling zombies. And maybe it'll be the next cyberspace sensation. Like Justin Bieber. Except dead. Either way, you will be a part of a great project that will touch the lives of anyone with blood flow!
Join the soul-tickling party today. Entry starts at just one dollar.
