How to deal with Valentine's Day during a plague? Go to a drive-in punk puppet zombie movie down by the river!
"The Love That Would Not Die" is a new punk puppet musical series written and directed by our current artist-in-residence, Devon Hawkes Ludlow. The film is comprised of three recently completed 1/2-hour episodes.
"The Love That Would Not Die" follows a delusional, alcoholic zombie apocalypse survivor (Stan) and his sock puppet dog (Dog) as they try to maintain their sanity after big pharma/tech mogul (Steve) introduces a new pill -- the iNodie -- designed to keep consumers alive forever. Side effect is that it turns people into mindless cannibals. Stan lost his true love (Lydia) to the plague and now watches from his hideout as she eats brains day and night.
Everything changes when the mysterious Kid shows up in a multiverse traveling airstream trailer, a kid who has a musical genetic disorder that turns any zombie that bites him into a rock star. Stan takes Kid to try and create a cure, but en route they encounter a new rock star zombie - Lydia. Stan realizes too late that he can't overcome his love.
Who will survive the revolution? Does this machete go with these pumps? Drive in and find out in The Love That Would Not Die.
