Below is the trailer for the new zombie comedy Deadheads, which played to sell-out crowds at the Austin Film Festival. I’m usually a little bit hesitant whenever I see horror and comedy being mixed together because for those two genres to mix, a perfect balance must be struck. Otherwise, you end up with a horror film that’s too funny or a comedy that’s too scary. Still, I’ve heard good things about Deadheads from my friends in Austin and the trailer would seem to suggest that, at the very least, the film has a good heart and I hope it picks up a national distributor in the near future.
(Special thanks to frequent Shattered Lens commenter Jake Moore for alerting me to this trailer!)
Now this film has gone way under my radar. I may have to keep a look out for it when it finally becomes available OnDemand and/or Netflix.
