- STORY
Mike hates horror movies with zombies. The truth is, he’s actually scared of them. But no one knows that about him, except his high school best friend, Amy. She, on the other hand, just loves zombie movies, especially the ones produced by the legendary director Lee Carver.
His new zombie movie premieres in their very own hometown of Carverville — on Halloween. The director himself will be there to present the first showing! The town is excited! Except for Mike. He is the projectionist at the movie theatre where “Zombie Town” will premiere on Halloween, and he really doesn’t want to see ANY zombie movie especially not on Halloween.
But Mike’s secret crush on Amy compels him to show her the movie before the premiere. Amy agrees, and the two sit in the empty theatre to view the film. Mike switches on Carver’s old projector. To their surprise, they discover that this 35mm film is cursed. The film’s running sends out a magical transformational power — a blinding light explodes from the projector!
The entire town turns into soul-sucking zombies — except Amy and Mike! The two are alone. The power is out. Cell phones don’t work! While dodging zombies, the two friends try to discover what has happened. The only man who would know is Carver. Mike and Amy must get to Carver and request his help — without being turned into soul-sucking zombies themselves!
