High School Musical vs Zombies in Attack at Zombie High!

Best friends Amber and Katie are the popular girls in their high school, and they have to survive attack from zombies whose only weakness is music - when it plays, they cannot fight the urge to dance. With the help of the school nerd and Amber's crush, the four formulate a plan to capture the zombies' summoner, and get rid of the zombies for good.

Official Site

'Attack at Zombie High!' is a comedic short film, written and directed by Jennifer Sanett. Completed as her thesis at the Los Angeles Film School, she had 4 months of prep work with her producers - Joey LaBartunek and Khara Campbell, and only 5 days to shoot the film.

Rick Astley never did give up. He's writing a movie

Rick Astley is writing a musical and he has told The Times all about it as well as what he thinks of the whole Rick-rolling phenomenon. Including the whole V for Vendetta thing at the Church of Scientology HQ.

“My wife’s now a movie producer so I read a lot of scripts and I’m really passionate about films,” he says. “One day I thought, ‘Well, why don’t I write one?’ And it turned into a musical — but not for the stage. It’s dominated by the songs I’ve written — they tell the stories — so I hooked up with a guy in California and we wrote the script together. We’re at the point of speaking to a few different agents and getting people to read. I’m not fooling myself — nothing may come of it and I totally understand that, but as a process I have loved it. When you’re writing frothy pop songs the lyrics can be a bit ‘whatever’, they are hooky and you just sing them because they work. But writing these songs . . .” He falters. “Do they call that a libretto?”

The synth sounds of the Gary Numan world will figure highly, because it’s set, “would you believe, in the 1980s! The working title is New York Cowboy because it’s about a young guy who sets off from a small town — not Newton-le-Willows [Astley’s home town], ha-ha — to go to New York.”
