Local filmmaker in Erie plans to raise funds for his new film "Eerie Town" featuring zombies taking over the city.

Attention all Erie community members! Are you ready for an exciting event that will bring zombies to life in our town? Get ready for the Zombie Crawl, where fictional zombies will take over our streets in an effort to raise funds for an upcoming action-comedy movie set in Erie.

The mastermind behind this film is none other than Michael Freeman, a talented writer, director, and producer. His love for action-comedy movies and his admiration for Erie inspired him to create "Eerie Town," a movie about a man who returns to his hometown only to encounter a zombie apocalypse after a failed vampire hunt.

Freeman's idea for the film came to him during a town event, where he looked around and thought to himself, "This would make a great zombie town." He envisioned people running through the streets of Old Town, being chased by hordes of zombies. "When the zombies rise from the Erie graveyard, chaos ensues and people have to run for their lives," Freeman explained.

To make the movie an authentic representation of Erie, Freeman wanted to involve the community in the production, acting, and filming. That's where the Zombie Crawl comes in. The event, taking place on Sept. 25 in Historic Downtown Erie, will not only be a fun and spooky night for all, but also an opportunity for local businesses to contribute to the movie's production. Whether it's through donating a portion of their profits or creating a specialty product to promote the movie, businesses can show their support and help bring this project to life. Plus, attendees will have the chance to meet the cast and crew of the film.

Freeman believes that supporting independent movies is a way for people to explore new ideas and support local artists. He emphasized that even a silly zombie comedy requires a lot of hard work from many talented individuals. "It takes the support of a community to make things happen," Freeman said.

During filming, local businesses have been incredibly generous, allowing Freeman to use their properties and equipment free of charge. He expressed his gratitude for being able to "play pretend" with the community and bring his vision to life.
