Mimesis

Running time: 97 mins

Why watch a horror movie, when you can live it?

Winner of the Best Director at the Fantastic Horror & Fantasy Film Festival and featuring veteran actor Sid Haig (The Devil's Rejects) and Courtney Gains (Children of the Corn), Mimesis brings to life the blood-curdling pleasure of horror films through a loving homage to a George Romero classic.

Seven strangers role play in a real-life, twisted imitation of the original zombie movie, Night of the Living Dead. Drugged at a party after a horror movie convention, they find themselves trapped in a house awaiting the deaths written for them in 1968. Unsure of whom to trust, these victims of a sadistic game must outsmart their undead captors. Yet, the results are far from the expected.
