Zero Budget Heroes: The Legend of Chris Seaver & Low Budget Pictures

In the early 1990s, armed with nothing but a VHS camcorder and unabashed love for genre films, Chris Seaver has created and cultivated a dedicated fan following around the globe with such “crapsterpieces” as “Mulva: Zombie Ass Kicker”, “Wet Heat”, “Filthy McNasty”, among many others. The scripts are zany, the dialogue is grotesque, the cast are not professional actors. But year after year, members of this ensemble keep coming back to do it all over again.

With over 30 interviews with former and present members of the Low Budget Pictures family, including legendary B-movie actor Debbie Rochon (Tromeo & Juliet), Hollywood screenwriter Trent Haaga (68 Kill), and Tempe Entertainment founder J.R. Bookwalter (The Dead Next Door), ‘Zero Budget Heroes’ chronicles the life of this film group: birth, death and rebirth as “Warlock Home Video” in 2011. From the lows of “TeenApe Vs The Monster Nazi Apocalypse” to the even lower lows of “Taintlight”, "Zero Budget Heroes" shines a little light on these unsung heroes to show us exactly how to (or how not to) make a movie.


Eric

Joshua finally gets to meet Eric, the beloved dog of a girl he’s been dating. As the evening evolves, Josh begins to get a sneaking suspicion that Eric isn’t your typical house pet.
