Bad boy parapsychologist Brad Redmond takes his students on a paranormal investigation. There is no easy A for Elliott as he tries to protect sexy Tiffany the girl he secretly longs for. Teamed with ghost hunters the group is secluded on a haunted horse farm in rural Kentucky. With no TV and radio for three days the group is oblivious to the pandemic striking the country. There are two options for the students and ghost hunters become a zombie or fight. The irreverent ghost hunters will be played by stand up comics. Even better the filming is going to take place on a real haunted horse farm that was featured on a paranormal television show in 2011. Using real electronic voice phenomena recordings taken on the actual haunted horse farm adds a flavor of the paranormal. What do you do with twenty five stand up comics on the set? Let them improvise and film it! Yes there are plenty of scantly clag co-eds running from Zombies! Yes there is action, romance, gore and more! Another apocalyptic Zombie Movie will be the next Zombie /Comedy cult classic. WARNING: Do not watch Another Apocalyptic Zombie Movie on a full bladder unless you wear discrete adult protection!
