12 Noon... UK PREMIERE Number 1...

Bombshell Bloodbath (2014) US

Director: Brett Mullen. Lucio Fulci influenced Italian style ZOMBIE splatter film oozes with retro gore, upto date horror and an atmosphere that you have not experienced since the 1980s... Stand out zombie film of the Decade...

 

2.00pm... AWESOME HISTORIC ZOMBIENESS...

Exit Humanity (2011) US

Directors: Krishna D.K. , Raj Nidimoru. A group of friends along with members of the Russian mafia get stuck on a remote island off the coast of Goa, when new drugs at a rave party are consumed by the guests, turning them into zombies.

 

7.15pm... UK PREMIERE Number 2...

Theatre of the Dead (2014) Austrailia

Director: Patrick J Gallagher. The cast and crew of the stage musical ANGELS IN HELL spend hours in monotonous rehearsal unaware of the bloodcurdling changes taking place in the world outside. Trapped inside the theatre by a horde of living dead, the group starts to fight amongst themselves – should they stay or make a run for it? The zombie virus won't wait for an answer. Who lives? Who dies? Is anyone left to care? There are worse things than being torn apart by critics.

 

9.15pm... CRAZY CUBAN SCREENING...

Juan of the Dead (2011) Cuba

Director: Alejandro Brugués. Juan is 40 years old, most of which he spent in Cuba doing absolutely nothing. Suddenly some strange things start to happen, people are turning violent attacking one to the other. Juan was first convinced it's just another stage of the Revolution. They're not vampires, they're not possessed, but they're definitely not dissidents; a simple bite turns the victim into other violent killing machine and the only way to beat them is destroying their brains.

 

11.15... 2nd UK SCREENING...

I Survived A Zombie Holocaust (2014) New Zealand

Director: Guy Pigden. A young runner, on a Zombie film set, has the first day from hell when real Zombies overrun the set.

Zombie Shop - Zombie Traders... The UK's number 1 all Zombie online store! Everything undead you ever wanted, needed or simply forgot to pack for the zombie apocalypse. It's the Zombie Apocalypse... Let's Play!!!

Whilst at the festival, they will be bringing a camera crew to film the event and will also be publicising their latest feature project, a twist on the zombie genre called Humans. Humans is essentially a cross between Inglorious Bastards, where Eagles Dare and Dawn of the Dead.

 

Horrify Me - Horror Photographers are a professional photographic portrait service for those with a taste for the macabre. They photograph people as zombies, vampires, and demonic possession victims, and they also conduct very bloody and gory boudoir beauty shoots. Their shoots are sometimes quite extreme with abundant blood and gore, and have even take photos of lovely couples biting chunks out of each other or attacking each other in acts of despicable violence with hammers and chainsaws. They are gore-some...

 

Adam Millard - Zombie Author is the author of sixteen novels, seven novellas, and more than a hundred short stories, which can be found in various collections and anthologies. Probably best known for his post-apocalyptic fiction, Adam also writes fantasy/horror for children, as well as bizarro fiction for several publishers. His “Dead” series has been the filling in a Stephen King/Bram Stoker sandwich on Amazon's bestsellers chart, and the translation rights have recently sold to German publisher, Voodoo Press.

 

Kelly Odell - Make Up Artist / Prosthetisist is a freelance make-up and special effects artist for her company KOllective. Her favourite time of the year, is Halloween purely because she gets to create many different characters which are usually gory and terrifying.
