American Zombie

American Zombie is the latest film by independent film maker, Grace Lee (formerly of the Grace Lee Project), and produced by one of my favorite people in the world, my near-sister, In-Ah Lee.

Thus far, the film has been making the rounds at Slamdance, SXSW and now the Asian American Film Festival in San Francisco (just in time for the holiest of Asian American holidays, St. Patrick’s Day).

The movie tells the story of two independent film makers, documenting a community of “high-functioning” zombies living in LA. These zombies (much like your friendly neighborhood psychopaths) live and look just like us (well, with the exception that they are undead and sometimes have bits of flesh hanging off).

Andrew O’Hehir from Salon.com ranked American Zombie among his favorite films of this year’s Sundance. (Although technically, American Zombie was actually a part of Slamdance). You can read his full article here.

Please check it out and support cool independent film.
