ZOMBIE HUNTERS: CITY OF THE DEAD

FAQ

--------------------------

Q:     OK, so who are you guys REALLY?  

A:     Well, REALLY we’re a bunch of regular, everyday professional types who have a deep love for scary movies. During the day, we blend in seamlessly amongst the throngs of civilians. You’ve probably passed us on the street a hundred times and never even noticed.  

--------------------------

Q:   The things you do in the show look awfully real. Are you, like, shooting with real guns?

A:     Although we leave it up to the viewer to decide if and when we’re using actual firearms or when it’s just made to look that way, we never cut corners in protecting the health and welfare of every person involved in the production of the show. We also would never want to be a burden to New York’s Finest. Therefore, no real firearm is ever pointed at a living person, nor will they ever used by us in a public place.  

--------------------------

Q:     Where did you guys come up with this idea? 

A:     Series creator Patrick Devaney has been a lifelong fan of the work of George Romero (the original “Dawn Of The Dead”, in particular). In fact, he tried for four long years from 1978-1982 to see the film, and finally did so after sneaking into a theatre when he was 13 during it’s re-release that summer.  

        Fast-foward twenty-three years later. While coming home from work one day, he looked down his deserted street, looked at the bars on the windows of his apartment, thought of how the bars should help in case of an emergency, and got hit with the idea: What IF it happened? What if it WAS all real? What would it look like to people, and how would it go down in a huge city like New York?         

        In that instant, the show was born. Everything else has been writing, planning, filming, lying, cheating, stealing, praying, and paying for it all!   

--------------------------

Q:     Can I get Carrie, Rebecca, or Nina’s cell number? They’re HOTT!  Or, can U give them mine? 

A:     Sorry, but no. Carrie, Rebecca, and Nina have enough to handle in trying to save the world without you calling at all hours of the day and night with your drunken buddies giggling in the background.  

--------------------------

Q:     Your stupid show came on right during dinner, and I sat there and watched this girl eat someone’s intestines!! I almost puked on the rug!! What the hell is WRONG with you [EXPLETIVE DELETED] people?!?!? Is this even allowed to be shown on television???!!?? 

A:     Why is there a TV in your dining room?  

--------------------------

Q:  Hello, and yes I have one question: what are those Zombies really eating? I saw one of them swallow. I mean, tell me, what ARE they EATING?

 A:   :)    

--------------------------

Q:     Is that Bates’ real hair? 

A:     Yes, Christopher “Bates” Murphy has been sporting that look for some time!  

--------------------------

Q:     Are Billy’s and Gabby's tattoos real or just painted on to look cool? 

A:     All of Patrick’s and Tibbie X's tattoos and piercings are real.   And yes, that's Patrick's real hair, too.

--------------------------

Q:     All these people on the show... didn’t they work at my old high school? 

A:     If you’re really asking this question, the answer is probably yes.  

-------------------------- 

Q:   Do George Romero and Tom Savini know about the show? Did you tell them? Have they said anything positive or negative about it?

A:     Although the themes and effects in the show are heavily influenced by the amazing work of these two men (as well as countless other talented horror, action, and sci-fi creators), neither of them have anything at all to do with this, or with any of us. 

          We have, however, met them many times over the years, and given them copies of the episodes to enjoy. You should all know that they’re both wonderful guys to talk to and are extremely kind to their dedicated (and often star-struck) fans.  We're honored to be following in their footsteps. 

--------------------------

Q:     Can I be on the show? 

A:     It depends. The producers occasionally look for outside talent to portray characters on the show. If you wish to try out for a part, send us a letter and your resume via the show’s eMail address. Sometimes we’ll post a call for a specific role on the website. If we can use you, we’ll call you. BUT, if you just wish to be a Zombie, tell us that, too! There will always be roles for more and more of the undead in the future.   

--------------------------

Q:     I was looking out my window and saw you guys shoot someone and called the cops. Before I realized what was going on, the squad cars had already shown up. My bad. Will you accept my apology?

A:   Apology accepted. Just don't do it again. And if your next question is "Are holding cells cold?", they answer is yes. Yes they are.
