Be a Zombie!
We can never have enough zombies. Tell your creepy looking friends, tell your parents and grandparents. We want to cover your entire family in blood and ingrain them into the fabric of this film so their faces will be immortalized on the big screen forever!

Our Story
Benjamin Roberds and Jordan Reyes are two devoted film makers. When Ben finished the script for "A Plague So Pleasant" we decided that we'd rather die doing something we love than live working in minimum wage food service. We quit our jobs and pledged our lives to the well being of this film. This film is our child and we intend to raise it well so that it may one day leave us and go on to terrorize the masses in such away that we could never have dreamed to do on our own. Our zombies are awesome and not because we can afford a special effects make up artist but because we found, Tylar Carver, a sixteen year old girl who's a prodigy with a mixture of household products and liquid latex. Some of the wounds are simply toilet paper and acrylic paint. The computer generated zombie eyes were done by our genius friend of post production expertise and perfection, Richard Fasshauer. Our sound equipment was loaned to us, our lenses was bought by a generous friend of ours and all of the skilled actors work voluntarily and professionally. This world has handed us an amazing array of allies through our persistence with this film. Will you be one of them?
The Impact
We intend to change the definition of independent film. We battle everyday in a business where 2 million dollars is considered low budget yet to us, even 2 dollars is a fortune. We eat scraps, we beg for zombies and we create beautiful movies with next to nothing at all. We don't need money to make this movie because nothing can stop us from making this movie but money will allow us to sleep a little better at night as opposed to how we operated now. We don't sleep. This movie's too big to make itself.
What We Need & What You Get
At the moment we are adhering to the definition of the starving artist. Everything from the change in our pockets to the money we get from selling the junk in our houses goes to this film. We don't have jobs because this film is our job and it's a job that doesn't pay for itself. If we reach our goal we'll be able to buy more liquid latex, blood, make up for the zombies, cranes for important shoots, tapes and liability insurance so we'll be allowed to shoot more places. It's an expensive world out there for such an ambitious film. Will you help us?
