About the production
A British comedy feature about friendship, community and a very badly written zombie flick.
The story
After another TV pitch is rejected, out-of-work writer Kevin is approached by his friend Ben, who offers to fund a movie. Kevin promised his fiancée Heather he'd get a proper job if this pitch failed, but before he can break the news, Ben convinces her the show was commissioned. Kevin keeps the lie going, and Heather starts planning a wedding he can't afford.
Kevin wants to make the best film he possibly can. Ben wants to make the cheapest. They pick one of Kevin's first scripts, a badly written zombie flick, and to save money hire an amateur dramatics society who'll work “for a few measly sandwiches”.
When Ben's frustration with the cast boils over into a serious on-set accident, the theatre company walks out, the friendship ends, and Kevin sets off to discover what friendship and community spirit really mean.
