Dead Moon Rising

About This Movie

Dead Moon Rising is this quirky blend of comedy and horror that captures the absurdity of an apocalyptic scenario with a light-hearted twist. The film centers around Jim and his crew at Cheapskate Car Rental, who seem blissfully unaware of the zombie-like chaos unfolding outside their workplace. It’s got that low-budget charm, with practical effects that really elevate the gory moments—there's something refreshing about seeing the physicality of it all instead of CGI. The pacing has this odd rhythm, oscillating between laugh-out-loud moments and genuine horror, which keeps you guessing. The performances are pretty delightful, particularly how the clerks navigate their ridiculous daily challenges while the world crumbles. Definitely a unique take on the zombie genre.
