Today's evening Herald ran an article about a zombie film shot right here in Ireland. Looks quite promising so far.

Some pretty cool stills from the Irish made zombie film Portrait of a Zombie have been released. The film is due for release next year. The teaser trailer goes live in 5 days time at portraitofazombie.com
The makeup effects look pretty slick.

Sure would be nice to get a really decent horror film come out of Ireland for a change.. Here's hoping this is it.

Most of it was shot in Finglas (includingthat pic). There were also scenes shot in Ballymun and the city centre.

wow i was way off i thought it looked like columbanus near the windy arbour luas. ooops, is it a straight up horror, or is it light hearted, dark humour, etc will it be shown in the IFI or general release,

**Galvasean** · 27-11-2009, 00:35

It's a horror/comedy, with the emphasis on very dark humour. It has docu/mockumentary stylings too.
I'm not sure about the release, but I'm guessing limited release. I'd be mazd ifthe IFI didn't pick it up.

awesome looks freaking cool! You should inform bloody-disgusting.com the number 1 horror website in the world!

pipqueak · 27-11-2009, 12:16

Stills look really impressive. I think I read about this is the Herald a few weeks back.

yea looks cooler than described to me. A friend of mine asked me to be a zombie in this flick as a favour to her bro as he's making the film but I was in Rome, bad timing, woulda been cool to be a zombie!

**Galvasean** · 01-12-2009, 12:53

Nice to see some of the online bloggers have begun supporting the film.

Trailer is up tomorro, I'm so excited!

Almost forgot, there is a little behind the scenes sneak peek up on the Facebook pae. It involves guns and screaming

I am surprised you didn't post about this in the horror forum.
