If you like zombies, 90’s cartoons, and dark humor,
then you’ll love Z-Boy: Tales of a Teenage Zombie.
Boston
animator, Zoë Abbett, has launched a Kickstarter to fund this series that will
premiere on YouTube. Z-Boy follows the story of Drake, an unlucky youth who was
killed in a freak plumbing accident. Drake meets his assigned reaper,
Cornelius, in purgatory, but is unable to pass to the afterlife because
Cornelius lost his death papers. As a result, the two are banished from the
underworld and must adapt to the world of the living, which is no easy task
when you’re a walking, talking corpse with social problems!
Z-Boy is based off a senior film Zoë developed while
attending Massart. The student film served as a pilot and left the story open
for new adventures with Drake and his friends. The Z-Boy team is hoping to
raise money on Kickstarter to fund a first season that will expand on the
universe and add new characters, spooky stories, and many death jokes.
The Kickstarter campaign ends soon on April 3rd.
