Synopsis/Details: 

The Pimp of the Year and his sharp-tongued girlfriend find themselves stranded in a remote, backwoods cabin when their car gives out. But they’re not alone—two stoners had plans to party with girls at the same cabin. When their hookup plans go sideways, the bitter potheads turn to a jar of reanimation serum—and the nearest funeral home—to get even.

As night falls, the cabin becomes ground zero for a hysterically horrifying undead siege. Armed with limited ammo and his beloved Pimp of the Year trophy, the unlikely hero must fight through a wave of reanimated corpses, vengeful locals, and his own emotional demons.

The Pimp & The Dead is a bloody, absurd, and wildly irreverent grindhouse horror-comedy that blends over-the-top gore with heart, humor, and the unholy.
