Written by Greg D’Alessandro and directed by Micah Khan, “The Zombie Wedding” is based on the eponymous interactive play and tells the story of a New Jersey couple who decide to go through with their wedding during the zombie apocalypse. Unfortunately, the groom is a zombie, and the bride is a human. Both families are nervous about the big day, but the judgmental humans make the event even more challenging. During the ceremony, the Zombies begin feeling brain-deprived, and the wedding takes a turn for the weird.

It features a large ensemble cast that includes SNL alumn Cheri Oteri, Seth Gilliam (“The Walking Dead”), Heather Matarazzo (“Scream” franchise), Kevin Chamberlin (“Jessie”), Siobhan Fallon Hogan (“Men in Black”), Vincent Pastore (“The Sopranos”), Ajay Naidu (“Office Space”), and Micky Dolenz of The Monkees, to name a few.
