In 2014, the making of The New World Horror caused waves due to its depiction of the Tea Party / “alt-right” movement as bloodthirsty zombies. Charlie Sykes, Vicki McKenna, and other right wing personalities and organizations attacked the film before principal photography even began.
Written and directed by Adam Schabow (Christmas in April, Rants Without Pants, Blogging Blue) and starring Jennifer Grundy, Dana Pellebon, Steve Golla, Tawnie P. Thompson, Greg Johnson, Carmela Wiese, Joe Price, and Harris Lemberg, The New World Horror tells the story of eight strangers who find life turned upside down when a group of political extremists release a demonic virus from hell.
