Storyline

Samuel Peters once an ordinary man, dabbles within the laws of voodoo to bring his wife back from the grave, he soon encounters the God of malevolence 'Kalfu', where he makes a pact with him to destroy the underworld and bring chaos to earth; in return he will become 'The Zombie King' and walk the earth for eternity with his departed wife. Seven days before the rise of the Dark Moon, Samuel Peters (The Zombie King) calls upon Kalfu to raise seven of the recently departed, where their souls must be held on earth for seven days. With the ever growing horde of zombies, they begin to completely wipe out a countryside town. Once the Government get wind of what is going on, they set a perimeter around the town area and employ a shoot on sight policy. Trapped within the town, the locals and unlikely bunch of misfits fight for their lives, and the remaining humans soon realise that they have to unite in order to survive. Seeking sanctuary in a local church, they discover a bizarre disturbed ... Written by Rebecca-Clare Evans

Great feature film
15 June 2013 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Loved it, loved it, loved it! So quirky this little film, different and unusual, lots of nods to the old b movie classics with a modern twist. It was funny and in places creepy and had a great cast to round this out. Unmissable for fans of the genre, wanting something different. It took me back to a lot of the films i loved and has reignited my interest in these types of films. I have to say it has also inspired me to watch more independents as they offer a nice change from a lot of the mainstream stuff. Great work to cast and crew :-) Hats off to all of you for taking the time to get such a great film out there for us all to say. I was thoroughly entertained
