Michael Joy’s “DEAD Afterlife” Enters Final Kickstarter Week: Only $1,500 Needed to Bring Macabre Vision to Life

Michael Joy, the prominent horror publicist and creator of Marketing Macabre, is entering the high-stakes final week of the Kickstarter campaign for his feature film debut, DEAD afterlife. With only $1,500 remaining to hit the primary funding goal, the production team is calling on horror fans and independent cinema supporters to help push this “zombie/ghost mash-up” across the finish line.

DEAD afterlife presents a uniquely dark twist on the zombie subgenre. The story follows pharmaceutical scientist Donald Conlee, who is murdered and then inadvertently “saved” by his own experimental “Awake” super-drug. In a horrific predicament, Donald’s ghost is forced to watch his own funeral, only to witness his reanimated zombie body climb out of the coffin and begin attacking his grieving friends and family.
The project features a powerhouse team of genre veterans:
  • Production: Michael Joy (Producer) is joined by award-winning filmmaker Mario Cerrito (Human Hibachi franchise) as co-producer.
  • Location: Principal photography is scheduled to begin this fall in Camden County, New Jersey.
  • Rewards: Backers can choose from creative packages including digital copiesDVDs, and even product placement opportunities or on-screen roles for businesses and individuals.
“This film is the culmination of my life’s work in the horror industry,” said Michael Joy. “We are so close to the goal, and every contribution in this final week ensures we can deliver a high-quality, creative production that our backers will be proud to be a part of”.
