Just a heads-up... Snag Films is offering a free viewing of Zombie Girl: The Movie through 8/20. It's a documentary chronicling the two years it took Emily Hagins to film her movie, Zombie Girl. So what's the big deal? Emily is eleven.
I haven't watched yet as I didn't want to wast another moment to inform everyone of this opportunity. Click here to go to the official site and here to view the movie. Below is the synopsis:
Emily Hagins is making a zombie movie. It’s feature-length, it’s bloody, and the zombies don’t run—just like it should be. But there’s just one difference between her film and every other zombie movie you’ve ever seen: Emily is twelve. ZOMBIE GIRL: THE MOVIE is the documentary that chronicles the making of her film.
Most twelve-year-olds are busy with friends, homework, and online chatting. So is Emily, but she’s also part of a new generation of teenagers raised on technology and expressing themselves through video. Only—she’s doing it on a feature-length scale!
With the help of her mother as agent, crew, and biggest fan, Emily launches an epic adventure in genre filmmaking, battling everything from budget shortfalls to self-doubt, all while coming of age as a teenager. Emily has the vision and her mom has the driver’s license. Together, their journey is a fascinating look at a growing world of young moviemakers and the bloodiest mother/daughter story you’ve ever seen.
I hope that my daughter Wednesday turns out to be this creative and cool!
