Zombie films are currently very popular in todays movie industry, gaining a wide audience from teenagers to adults. The current craze dominates our cinema screens with many movies, similar to our idea such as:

World War Z (2013): United Nations employee Gerry Lane traverses the world in a race against time to stop the Zombie pandemic that is toppling armies and governments, and threatening to destroy humanity itself.

One review featured on IMDb by a viewer of the film stated:

"They're not scary, no creative and the lack of gore shouldn't be bashed because you don't need gore to be scary but at the same time when you have the violence off-screen it just makes the film seem rather childish." To avoid disappointment we will feature the violence and fight scenes on-screen as this will make the film more tense and interesting for our viewers. Warm Bodies (2013): After a highly unusual zombie saves a still-living girl from an attack, the two form a relationship that sets in motion events that might transform the entire lifeless world.

Shaun of the Dead (2004): A man decides to turn his life around by winning back his ex-girlfriend, reconciling his relationship with his mother, and dealing with an entire community that has returned from the dead to eat the living.

We have taken inspiration from the Shaun Of The Dead film by including a 'News Scene' into the first few minutes of our film.

However, due to the fact our film is a horror it will not hold the same ironic, comedic effect. Instead our film will feature a simple news report. As the clip will feature in the first 2 minutes of the film it will act as a great introduction, explaining the virus which has spread and demonstrating the key theme to the audience.
