Late last winter a friend of mine asked me to come out to be a zombie extra in a horror film he was working on called Pontypool. The movie's been shown at several film festivals but today it gets it's first theatrical release in Toronto and will be rolled out on a limited basis to the rest of Canada and the U.S. in the next few weeks. Although myself and the other zombies were filmed in several different scenes, nearly all of it wound up on the cutting room floor as they decided to make the movie more of a psychological thriller than a strait-out zombie flick. So while I'm actually on screen 4 or 5 times ... each time is for a brief split second only ... and myself and my fellow zombies, despite being covered in blood and make-up, are seen only as dark, shadowy sillouettes through the blood-splattered radio control room glass. I'm not positive, but that might even be my hand shown in the trailer. Again, we're only seen in brief flashes. But still, I've been immortalized in celluloid.
If it comes to your town and you're a zombie movie fan, please come out and see it. They need the money.
