| Luke Pick as Wesker in Dawn and the Dead |
The greatest story ever told. With zombies. In Nottingham.
Dawn and the Dead is an hour-ish long, low budget epic about a young woman called Dawn (you see where they’re going with the title...) who is thrust into a zombie apocalypse. As a materialistic, fashion obsessive she wouldn’t have stood much chance of survival without Wesker, a paintball instructor who trains her in the way of the gun and who proves to be a potential love interest. With her new skills she finds that she is a natural at shooting zombie’s heads off and - without giving too much away - runs into a whole host of characters (gypsy daughters, crazy soldiers, northern reporters), whilst killing many an ‘undead mo fo’.
