Producers of the independent zombie film DEAD SEASON released the first of many publicly viewable trailers today.
DEAD SEASON tells the story of two post-zombie outbreak survivors, Elvis and Tweeter, as they escape America to find a safe haven on a tropical island. Upon arriving, they are forced to deal with a newly formed community that is anything but civil. The film stars James C. Burns, Scott Peat and Marissa Merrill. Burns will be familiar to gaming fans anxiously awaiting the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops in November: he plays central character Sgt. Frank Woods.
Shot on location in Vieques, Puerto Rico, the island that was previously home to naval test bombings for decades, DEAD SEASON is the first feature film to shoot there since the original Lord of the Flies. During production, the crew also gained a certain amount of notoriety for being the first to shoot a feature film entirely on the Canon 7D camera.
