A filmmaker from the eastern Iowa town of Clinton is looking for some help from folks who are a little pale and feeling dead on their feet. Nineteen-year-old Nick Zmuda needs some zombies for an independent movie he is shooting this Friday and Saturday near the Quad-Cities in Port Byron, Illinois.

“They All Fall Down” is about a couple of brothers who go into a haunted forest at Halloween to rescue a girl and instead find lots of zombies. Zmuda needs up to 15 actors who look dead, age 18 or above, on Friday and double that number Saturday. If you are feeling spooky, contact Zmuda through the film’s Facebook page. In the search area, type the movie name, “They All Fall Down.” Then stay out of the sun!
