Just yesterday I wrote about a little British zombie movie called THE DEVIL’S PLAYGROUND, and wouldn’t you know it, I already have an update. Seems as though you lucky Londonites will get a chance to participate in this flick – as the living dead!
The folks over at Zombie-Nation.net received word from the filmmakers that they’re seeking people to join in the bloody fun as “free running” zombies. And as you can see, they also received a photo of a make-up test, which is pretty ghastly indeed.
In addition, here’s a more detailed synopsis: The undead swarm over the globe. One man’s folly brings the dead back to life, dead that kill, dead that move with lightning speed. Michael Brooke, the great Novel Prize winning virologist responsible for this Armageddon is believed to be done, and hope is fading fast.
But one group of survivors seek to reach a mythical safe haven, an island to the east coast of England, where the remnants of the country’s infrastructure are attempting to find a solution to the plague sweeping the earth. A petrol station attendant and a mechanic, a young girl and a reporter, a man who isn’t what he seems and his neurotic sister. Thrown together by the horrific fate the world has encountered. All want to survive, and some will do anything in order to live another day.
Joining them is Cole, a cop. A man with little or no conscience, a killer, a man who doesn’t care. But a man who was made to survive in a world such as this. When a freak accident leaves the petrol station unsafe and their only means of transport damaged beyond repair the group seek shelter in a nearby house on the outskirts of a forest. Time is running out. The undead approach. People are not who and what they seem. Some people will stop at nothing to survive. Some people will do anything to keep their loved ones safe. The fight for survival has begun.
