(Brady Hall, Calvin Reeder, USA, 2001)

Co-directed by Brady Hall (June And July) and Calvin Reeder, who was named one of the "25 New Faces in Film" by Filmmaker Magazine in 2007, this B-grade horror movie about Jesus Christ returning as a bloodthirsty zombie was made for a mere $5000. Rough around the edges, sure, but it marked the beginning of one of the city’s finest film collaborations.
