Project Detail

B-Movie

Synopsis

After another TV idea is rejected, out of work TV writer Kevin is talked into producing a B-Movie with his friend Ben, who offers funds the movie.
Whilst Kevin is out to make the best film he possibly can, Ben cuts corners at every opportunity to maximise his profits. To make the biggest saving possible Ben decides that they should work with an amateur dramatics society, as the actors would be ‘happy to be in front of the camera, for a few measly sandwiches’.
For the screenplay the pair chose one of Kevin’s first scripts, a badly written zombie flick.
During filming Ben’s frustration with the actors reaches boiling point, which results in the pair stepping over a serious on-set accident. The theatre company pull out of the movie as a result. Seeing Ben’s true colours leads to Kevin ending their friendship, which ultimately sends Kevin on a journey to discover what friendship and community spirit are really about.
