Polite Zombie

The Canadian Film Fest's undead resists Canuck mannerisms.

[iframe_vimeo video = “88878944”]

Pardon? We couldn’t quite hear your ferocious zombie growls over the polite apologies and thank you’s, Antoine Zombe. The (fictional) professional actor and actual zombie, who’s shown misunderstood in this spot by JWT for the Canadian Film Festival, decides its time to fight the Canadian urges inside, and make his undead mom proud by being the best spine-chilling corpse in show business. Watch this nearly three-minute short to see how this courteous Canuck climbed his way to the top, and becomes the poster undead-child for Canadian-born films. Considering it’s themed around the brain dead, this sure is a smart spot.
