Followed is the story of a socially-responsible college professor whose perfect world is threatened by the appearance of a tag-along zombie child.


From multi-award winning director James Kicklighter (The Car Wash, Di Passaggio), Followed features the American debut of actor Erryn Arkin (Home and Away, CIA: Crime Investigation Australia) as Peter, Edith Ivey (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button) as Jackie, Sylvia Boykin (The Tenant) as Jenna, and it introduces San Francisco's Abigail de los Reyes as Asian Girl.

"When this story was brought to me nearly a year ago, I knew that this had to be my next film," said director James Kicklighter. "I am thankful for the opportunity to redefine the zombie genre with Will McIntosh's unique creative voice, along with our talented performers and crew."

Filming for Followed, based on the short story from Hugo-award winning author Will McIntosh, took place in Macon, Ga during December 2010.

The movie is now in post-production before its release to major festivals.
