Irish Zombies Attack in Dark Sky’s Plague Town

You would be forgiven for thinking that only the Brits know how to do zombies Across the Pond, but you would be wrong. The Irish have dabbled in the living dead from time to time, with recent entries like the teen horror “Boy Eats Girl” and the criminally under appreciated “Dead Meat”. The latest to take on Irish zombies is “Plague Town”, an original horror and the first feature from producer David Gregory (2003’s “The Manson Family”). Production on the film, about a dysfunctional family that goes on vacation and discovers an even more dysfunctional Irish town full of zombies, has already begun under MPI Media Group’s Dark Sky Films banner.

More from The Hollywood Reporter:

“Plague,” the first in-house production from the theatrical/DVD genre distributor, began principal photography Monday in Hamden, Conn. Josslyn DeCrosta, Erica Rhodes, David Lombard, Lindsay Goranson, Elizabeth Bov and James Warke star.

British documentarian Gregory previously produced the feature film “The Manson Family” and wrote, produced and directed the IFC production “The Spaghetti West.” He co-founded of the controversial U.K.-based home video label Exploited.
