NY CA ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE SURVIVOR

THE SHOW Zombie Apocalypse Survivor is a series that turns the genre of the competition reality show on its head by combining the ever popular world of the Zombie movie with the real life challenges of a competitive obstacle race. In each episode we put a group of contestants through an onslaught of zombie themed survival challenges and let them battle it out to become the last standing Zombie Apocalypse Survivor and claim their cash prize.

How many times have you watched a movie with someone who can’t shut up about how the characters are “doing it all wrong?” In Zombie Apocalypse Survivor the participants will “live” the movie and get to put their brains, brawn, and survival skills where their mouths are. Viewers at home will enjoy watching the Zombie themed challenges play out, as they identify with various participants and their approaches to the challenges as well as their interactions with each other in this fun, frightening, and fantastic world.

THE TONE With this unique space we have the option to take the show in a variety of different directions in regards to tone. One direction could be in the more serious, eerie tone of the traditional zombie horror lm- a combination of “The Walking Dead” and “Survivor,” where not only is a cash prize on the line, but so is your life. The other direction would be in the direction of the recent trend in whimsical Zombie comedy lms- a combination of the lm “Zombie Land” and “Wipe Out, where we compete yet also have fun with the genre.

NY CA THE CHALLENGES

Each episode will include a series of zombie themed challenges that the contes- tants must compete in to come out on top as the ultimate survivor. These chal- lenges are inspired by the many best-selling Zombie Survival Handbooks that are so popular today and can range from live ammo shooting competitions (Top Shot, Sons of guns) to survival challenges and obstacle courses where the contestants are chased by zombies (The Colony, Survivor, Spartan Race).

Rural Reckoning- Set at an abandoned farm, contestants must search for possible food and shelter while shooting their way through zombie hordes and make it across the elds from an old barn to a farmhouse.

Factory Escape- You wake to nd that the abandoned factory you’ve been using as a hideout is actually lled with zombie intruders. You have a limited amount of time to escape without making physical contact with any zombies.

Zombie 5K marathon- This endurance race is populated by hidden pockets of running zombies who are hungry for esh.

Escape from Downtown – contestants must escape a desolate downtown obstacle course populated with hungry zombies

Hunt and Gather- You’ve escaped the city but your troubles have just begun. Your supplies are running low and you need food and water. Collect key items hidden around the course as you avoid the dead in this post- apocalyptic wasteland.

Zombie Assault Vehicle- A prefabricated zombie assault vehicle has fallen into your hands. This is your chance to drive a closed course and take out as many zombies as possible with the car mounted weapons.

Secure your Shelter-A swarm of Zombies have surrounded your safe house and are trying to eat you. You have a short time allotted to secure all the windows and doors with a limited amount of tools, nails, boards, and scrap metal.

Exploding Headshot- contestants on a shooting range re on approaching zombie dummies whose heads explode with the perfect headshot.

Hatchet to the Head- When you run out of ammo, sometimes it comes down to your backup blades. This challenge is a carnival style knife/hatchet-throwing contest. The contestants throw knives at rows of zombie heads.

Survivor Rescue- A fellow survivor, like yourself, is trapped in the top oor of an old factory surrounded by zombies. Your teams’ goal is to distract the zombie, get I,n and get them out with as little damage to your team as possible.

THE CONTESTANTS

There are groups all over the country who run their own homemade versions of Zombie Apocalypse Survivor every weekend. They range from zombie lm buffs who put themselves into zombie situations from actual lms for the fun of it, to survival fanatics who truly believe that the real Zombie Apocalypse will arrive in the near future and they must be prepared.

We have the option to showcase the group dynamic and have our contestants compete as teams (Survivor) or to break it down to individual competitors and it’s every man for himself (Fear Factor).

Team Play- Teams of 4-5 contestants from different parts of the country compete as a group and work together to win the show. These teams could be made up of the real life teams from around the country that play Zombie games on the weekend. Example: The Zombie Survival Redneck Militia from Alabama take on the Zombie Geek Squad from Palo Alto.

Partners- We exploit the partner dynamic and have 2 man teams work with each other to conquer the challenges and beat the other partners in the competition (Amazing Race).

Individual Competition- it’s an every man for himself competition and only the most skilled Zombie survivor will emerge victorious.
