Guns and Gardens – Tips on Surviving a Zombie Apocalypse
This video is probably the most randomly entertaining zombie video I’ve ever seen. Written and directed by Marque Cornblatt, this premise of this video sounds like the result of an up all night binge session with coffee and quaaludes, but it is so wonderfully put together and executed that you’ll be laughing while appreciating the randomness of it.
The video presents itself as a pirate broadcast that supplies tips for surviving the zombie apocalypse. Being it is too dangerous to scavenge food, the broadcast gives excellent instructions on building your own indoor garden. And for christsakes, I felt like I was learning something. In between segments, there were fake commercials for a product that appears to have tested well, but didn’t hold up in the practice.
The video ends with a walk in the wasteland and it looks great. You really get the sense that humanity has fallen to pieces, but narrator of the segment (Cornblatt himself) is so cheerfully optimistic, that it just doesn’t matter. Of course, optimism will go only so far as the cameraman soon discovers.
This is an awesome video which I hope is the start of a series of them. All I got to say is keep them coming.
