A clever meta blend of queer horror and comedy, There’s a Zombie Outside follows Adam (Ben Baur), a budding young gay filmmaker whose identity is intertwined with cult cinema.
During a camping trip with his hunky boyfriend Ollie (Ty Chen) and his best friends Louis and Zeke (Francisco Chacin and William Lott), Adam finds his imagination bleeding into his mundane reality.
Spotting what appears to be a decomposing zombie lurking near their cabin, he’s sent into a panic. His friends dismiss his claims as stress-induced paranoia, but when Adam returns to Los Angeles, the zombie continues to stalk him, causing chaos in every aspect of his life.
A sharp horror from writer-director Michael Varrati, one of the most compelling queer voices in contemporary genre cinema, There’s a Zombie Outside tells a clever, meta tale about one man’s struggle to stay in control of his own story… no matter how terrifying it gets.
