Dear Mom (even though she doesn’t use the net): Here’s the opening sequence of a movie I’d like for my birthday next month. Yes, it’s Total Schlock, but I don’t care!
Love, your son.
Here’s the text from YouTube:
Osombie is an independently-produced, feature-length zombie film, packed with violence, mayhem, guns, blood and discussions about Pokemon. Oh, and zombies. Lots of zombies.
The story follows Dusty, a yoga instructor from Colorado, who is on a desperate rescue mission to save her crazy brother Derek, a conspiracy theorist who is convinced Osama Bin Laden is still alive, despite having been buried at sea. In Afghanistan, Dusty falls in with a team of NATO Special Forces on a secret assignment. Turns out Derek is not so crazy after all, and that Osama has returned from his watery grave and is making an army of zombie terrorists. When the group crashes headlong into the growing zombie apocalypse, Dusty and the troops must find and destroy the root of the zombie insurgency before it infests the rest of the world.
And in case you’re wondering why there’s such a surge in such movies, visit this link for an infographic which chronicles the flows and ebbs of the Zombie film genre. In any case, this mix of Mohammedans and Zombies is a perfect match!
And a perfect fit for The Overnight Open Thread!
