EXCLUSIVE CLIP! Apocalyptic zombie madness, shot on a budget of £45. Meet Colin, cinema's 'best value' undead warrior...
£45 generally doesn't get you much in life. A passable Italian meal for two. A pair of PVC trousers with a life expectancy of one year. Well, how about a grainy 93-minute zombie movie that's enamoured numerous film festival audiences all across the globe.
Shot entirely on camcorder and using prop left-overs from previous films, Marc Price's Colin could make Blair Witch Project seem like an over-funded flop in comparison. The eponymous Colin (Alastair Kirton) is a man who gets bitten by a zombie, dies, and is then reawaken into an 'apocalyptic suburban landscape', as he meets and follows other 'undead' folk of his type.
Not only does the frantic action dare to turn the genre on its head, it also unfolds the tale entirely from Colin's perspective, giving audiences an unsettling first-person zombie experience into the bargain. And it also purports to be quite gory(ish), too. Which makes you wonder just how much make-up from other films these sneaky film-makers pilfered!
