Sci Fi Channel: Now with Carol's Brothers

That's right! On Thursday May 11, 7 P.M., Sci Fi Channel will broadcast the television premiere of Hide and Creep, the full-length film (and we mean actual film, not video) directed by Chance Shirley and Chuck Hartsell and starring Carol's brothers Chuck and Chris (along with a host of other very talented people).

Here's a brief synopsis:
In the sleepy town of Thorsby, Alabama, no one had a life. Then the dead showed up. Now instead of just killing time the people of Thorsby are killing each other, taking up arms as the zombies take to the streets, the barbecue joints and the strip bars. Soon spaceships are flying overhead, federal agents are patrolling the grounds and a few fearless individuals are joining forces to run like hell.

A story about the lives we forget to lead, the people we fail to bury properly and the scary-ass creatures we have to eliminate along the way, "Hide and Creep" is a celebration of those who rise to the occasion just when all hope and television reception seem lost. A zombie film with brains, a comedy with boobs, Hide and Creep puts us on the front lines of a backwater town in crisis, giving us a taste of a community starving for action and a murderous horde hungry for human flesh.

And if you're planning on helming your own independent feature, I strongly--strongly--urge you to read co-director Chance Shirley's online diary This Movie Ain't Gonna Shoot Itself, a 22-part insightful, informational and indispensable guide that covers everything from properly securing locations to field/production audio to somehow finding yourself at a film festival, free beer in hand (full article archives here).
