It’s a story of survival in an undead apocalypse–for the family!

Freestyle Digital Media releases DON’T GET EATEN on North American digital HD internet, cable and satellite platforms as well as DVD on March 4. Written and directed by George Simon and Joseph Simon, it stars Justin Kilduff, Melinda Rose, Dale Dobson and Reese Ravencraft. The synopsis: “DON’T GET EATEN tells the story of Noah Mickelberg [Kilduff]–a zombie-apocalypse prepper and stay-at-home homeschooling dad. Noah is having great luck with his zombie survival online video channel, until an actual zombie apocalypse disrupts his plans. Noah’s exasperated wife [Rose] tries to keep the family afloat while her internet-streaming husband ekes out an existence creating ‘zombie survival’ videos with their daughters. When a couples therapist prescribes a technology-free getaway, things start off well, until an actual zombie apocalypse intrudes on their family weekend.”

“Finally, a zombie movie you can watch with your family!” say the Simons. “DON’T GET EATEN has something for everyone: young and old, dead and alive. We poured our hearts, souls, and brains into this epic indie and we can’t wait to share it with the world. It’s a hilarious and horrifying rollercoaster ride that will keep you guessing until the very end.”
