DeadHeads, a 2011 American comedy horror zombie flick. Two zombie slackers, Mike and Brent, find themselves surprisingly reborn from the dead amid a disastrous zombie outbreak. After discovering an engagement ring in his coat pocket, Mike enlists his new found zombie pal, Brent, to embark on a quest in search of his lost love. What ensues is a hilarious cross country road trip as these two reformed flesh-eating pals hitch-hike across the country as they are pursued by a team of zombie killin' bounty hunters! Awards Newport Beach Film Festival 2011 – Won Outstanding Achievement in Filmmaking Toronto After Dark Film Festival 2011 – Won Best Comedy Review by LoveHorror.com "Providing its own original take on the overdone undead genre with its throwback style which evokes comedy-adventure movies of the 80’s, Deadheads is a hilarious heart felt indie film which will have you laughing harder than a zombie eating a clown. Written, produced and directed by the Pierce Brothers, DeadHeads is a movie inspired by their childhood spent growing up around the making of The Evil Dead, as their father did all the special effects photography for Sam Raimi’s seminal scare-fest. Although The Evil Dead is an obvious influence, DeadHeads takes on a lot more, borrowing from and innovating within the genre with plenty of in-jokes, cultural references and gory gags which will keep all horror fans happy. The set-up of the film itself is one of the most interesting and original elements – starting the zombie story after the outbreak has taken hold, where most movies would end. It’s good to have a film which focuses on the aftermath and answers the question ‘what happened next to the animated meat sacks?’ What really sets the film apart from the masses of boring, brain-dead zombie movies that have flooded the market in recent years is the strong story and script. DeadHeads’ brilliant undead characters are really brought to life by the excellent cast…Switching seamlessly between horror, comedy, action adventure and romance the film never looses focus or the audiences attention which is a true achievement especially as this is the Piece Brothers first major movie. With great and gory special effects, touching and moving moments, entertaining action and lots and lots of laughs this is feel good film where people get eaten alive. A truly original take on the zombie genre and a must see for all horror fans DeadHeads proves there’s definitely still life in the undead."
