‘Zombie Bashers’ from Tailored Films Productions has walked away victorious from the RTÉ web drama competition, Story Land. In each round of the competition, the public voted for their favourite show which then lead to the re-commissioning of the series’ next episode.
‘Zombie Bashers’ tells the tale of Pascal and Mick, two former Plumbers turned Zombie exterminators in an Ireland infested by the Living dead. We follow them as they run their small Zombie bashing business that comes under attack by rival exterminators, serious lack of work and the tax man sticking his nose in as per usual. If it’s dead, they’ll kill it.
Online audiences are invited to watch the 5th and final episode of ‘Zombie Bashers’ on Monday, June 14th at www.rte.ie/storyland/zombiebashers/index.html.
Now in its second year RTÉ’s Story Land competition saw Chutney Films Productions’ ‘We Own the Streets’ came second this year.
‘Zombie Bashers’ is directed by Conor McMahon (Hotel Darklight), written by Stephen Shields and Produced by Ruth Treacy (sound, Dan and Becs). The series, shot by Julianne Forde, features Cathal Cheunt (Dead Meat), Clyde Mowlds (The Disturbed), Ned Dennehy (The Escapist), Marcus Valentine (Red Mist), Carla McGlynn (Stinge) and Martin Maloney.
