Film Synopsis
Amateur prepper Zack and his partner Jess face the ultimate apocalyptic event to find that things are nothing like anyone predicted. He and his house guests must find their way out of this horrifying dilemma as all preparations prove useless.
Given the recent explosion of zombie films, humans have become far too acclimated in surviving a zombie apocalypse...enter Z.14.12. What if none of the existing rules applied? What if all attempts failed? What if WE WERE ALL WRONG?
Z.14.12 takes us in a new direction using a unique and witty approach to the genre. It's under-lying concept differentiates it from most other films of the zombie genre. What if nothing was as we expected, yet the real explanation was right...under...our...noses all along?
Z.14.12 is a fun, escalating thrilling short film, climaxing with a revolutionary ending twist, provoking the thought of a new direction for the genre.
