The zombie sub-genre certainly has an advantage "right out of the gate" in that it has a loyal, dedicated fan base that is absolutely huge. Sadly, however, not a lot has been done to expand the range of the stories, and of the few that try, most of these still focus on the conflicts that exist between humans and zombies. ZOMBIED takes place at a time long after the zombie apocalypse has come and gone, a time when the zombies have won the contest. When the survivors - now all zombies - finally emerge from the brain fog of zombiedom, they are able to regain most of their memories and mental functions, but a lot was left behind in The Fog. Lost were emotional highs and lows, creativity, sex drive, ambition, violence, war, racism, and the need for money. Basically, our best and worst human qualities.

The story centers on how several members of a family deal with life in the New Society. Oh... and a double zombicide in a world that is supposed to be free of violence.

Beyond taking a zombie story where no zombie story has gone before, one of the really compelling aspects of this as a film is the visual incongruence of watching a movie where all of the characters are zombies, and they are all behaving themselves. The kids on bicycles... zombies. The old man tending his tomato plants... a zombie. Main characters, extras in the background... all zombies. It has zombies everywhere, and yet it really isn't a "zombie story." It's a family's story. They just happen to be a family of zombies. Could happen to anyone, right?
