Two North Carolina filmmakers are out to scare people brainless.
“The Zombie/Creature Double Horror Feature” will screen two independent horror films, “One Last Sunset” and “In The Devil’s Courthouse,” Friday at the Varsity Theatre.
There will also be two horror shorts, “Recalculating” and “The Horribly Horrible Horror Show.”
The filmmakers, who will be at the screening, said some zombies and creatures from the films will attend. There will be giveaways, posters and prizes.
Kevin Richmond, of Hickory, directed and produced “One Last Sunset,” a film about two sisters who struggle to survive after a virus turns everyone into zombies.
Richmond said the dynamic relationship between the sisters and strong character development make this an atypical horror film.
“The story is about resilience,” Richmond said.
“Together, the two sisters symbolize hope in a hopeless situation.”
Richmond said the full-length film took about two years to shoot, involved more than 1,200 actors and required a team of 12 make-up artists.
