“It had bunting up, big signs that said ‘Carry on Camping’ and fibreglass cows.”

Set for release in 2014, Meet The Cadavers (co-directed by David Davies) will be the first in a series of films that has elements of ‘The Munsters’ and ‘The Adams Family’.

In this first instalment, the couple take their two children and a family friend to a holiday campsite for some respite, frivolity and socialising, but their week takes a turn for the worse when the ghoulish group attend a Halloween fancy dress party.

“The zombies are the nice people and it’s everyone else that gives them abuse because Hollywood has given zombies a bad name, but they’re actually a really nice loving family.”

With a crew hailing from East and West Sussex, the low-budget feature is a labour of love that also includes a celebrity appearance from Big Brother winner Pete Bennett.

Zion plays father, Victor Cadaver, who is described as a happy-go-lucky zombie.

“He doesn’t completely understand his kids, but he loves them and looks after them, and likes spending time with his wife, Kelly.”

Kelly Cadaver is played by Vikki, who is described as the boss of the family.

Vikki said: “She makes sure everyone is in the right place at the right time, which is exactly what I’m like in the band.”

The cast and crew will be returning to Henfield’s Blacklands Farm on November 9 and 10, so if you would like to be an extra email [email protected]. The team is also currently looking for a local social club to film the all-important Halloween party.
