You have the choice of looking at this as a cosplay photo of my very ghetto impromptu (I don't even have a proper wig OTL) Highschool of the Dead costume or...
An outtake from the trailer shoot for... Cosplay of the Dead[link] COTD Facebook page www.facebook.com/cosplayofthedead (Check it out for more photos and updates about the indie movie)
While waiting in between takes during the trailer filming, we happily took advantage of the location to get some shots with the zombies- err, zombie actors. Some of them, like Dom ~Weakman and Alvin ~raijin-akuma were a bit too convincing at times. When they'd lurch toward me, I have to stop myself from swinging my metal bat at them with real force.
In this shot I'm doing what Dom taught me that day — smacking the zombie first with the knob of the baseball bat before following it up with a good whack with the barrel. I edited the photo with Highschool of the Dead in mind. KUZUUUURETAAAAAA

I can't wait to write about and post more behind-the-scenes photos from the shoot when I find the time. I should probably share more about it when the trailer is released.
For now I've made a couple of posts about that day on my Facebook page: COTD production team group shot + thanks [link] Ghetto cosplay is ghetto [link]
