Attack of the Vegan Zombies!

Dear Jolacora,

Thank you so much for your interest in my movie, "Attack of the Vegan Zombies!" It is a very campy, zombie movie. There are a few good laughs (both with and at the story), a good plot twist or two, a pair of topless women making out and some zombie attacks. It's very light-hearted, but made with a lot of fun. If you don't need big budget explosions or movie stars, you will probably enjoy it.

As far as the vegan part goes... I just wrote that in for practical reasons. A winery became available for me to use for free to make a movie. So I started thinking about the type of zombie movie I could make and tie in a winery and vineyard to the story at the same time. I came up with the idea of the zombies somehow growing out of the vines and went from there. The irony of zombies being vegan was too funny for me to pass up. Zombies, by definition, are flesh-eating monsters. They can't be vegans, so I thought the title would catch some people's minds. It's neither pro nor anti vegan. However, I have been eating more vegetables since I made the movie. Cows are big time consumers of water and other natural resources. Plus their four stomachs produce a lot of harmful gases. I've been experimenting with soy burgers and they're not bad.

I'll tell you what I will do. I have not made this offer to anyone, so keep it between you and me. Go to www.attackoftheveganzombies.com and buy a copy for 9.99. I'll sign it any way you ask me to (see order notes). If you honestly think it was really bad and want your money back I'll issue you a refund for the purchase price and you can keep the movie. If you think it was good vote for it on IMDB and give me a user review. You can reach me at [email protected] What do you think?

Sincerely,

Jim Townsend

Hi N-hungness,

How are you? Thank you very much for watching my movie, "Attack of the Vegan Zombies!" I'm very happy that you appreciate it for what it is: a campy, zombie movie with a slightly different twist. You would be surprised how many people take it (and many things, I guess) very seriously. When I met with the Casting Director, Shannon Cain, she told me straight up: for this money and time schedule I can get you actors, but they won't be Playboy bunnies. I was very lucky with the cast and crew. I wish I could say I'm working on another movie, but I haven't seen any money from "Attack of the Vegan Zombies!" yet, only bills. In fact, I didn't even get into a single film festival, despite submitting to over 30! Oh well. I had several screenings, though.

Thanks again for your words of encouragement. Throw me a vote on IMDB, if you like, and join the Facebook page. Best of luck to you and if I make another movie, I'll announce it on Facebook.

Jim
