The Walking Deceased Mocks the Dead
In the tradition of Scary Movie, but with less budget and not from any of those guys, comes The Walking Deceased, a new parody of your favorite show.
Variety reports The Walking Deceased has been picked up for distribution by ARC Entertainment. The film is written by Tim Ogletree and directed by Scott Dow and stars Dave Sheridan (Doofy in the original Scary Movie), Joel Oglesby and Ogletree.
The movie parodies various films like Warm Bodies and Zombieland, although the main thrust seems to be The Walking Dead. Characters include “an idiotic Sheriff with definite coma-induced brain damage, his hardass son and a hobo with only a crossbow to stave off the walking dead, four squabbling friends forced to survive this zombieland together, and a lonely zombie who just needs love to fully regain his warm body.”
