l.a. zombie An alien zombie emerges from the Pacific Ocean and is given a ride by a surfer in his car. The two are involved in a crash which kills the young man but he is brought back to life by the zombie, who has sex with him and then abandons him to go to Los Angeles. Here, the zombie continues to search for dead bodies to bring back to life through sexual intercourse, in a sort of mission that raises the suspicion that perhaps the mysterious creature is only a schizophrenic in the throes of a hallucination. “As I was traveling around the world with the zombie movie Otto; or, Up with Dead People I found myself declaring in numerous interviews that I think that zombie porn is the trend of the future and that the public will get used to seeing flesh penetrated by hordes of lascivious zombies. So, just like a prophecy that makes itself come true, I found the money for a hardcore zombie project, to be shot in Los Angeles starring one of the biggest names in adult films and with special effects created by the wizard of this sector, Joe Castro. Get ready for a revolutionary porno-horror extravaganza!”
