The movie tells the story of a fairly unrealistic looking alien zombie in LA who attempts to bring the dead back to life through homoerotic sex.

A synopsis on the film festival’s website promises that the film features “plenty of wound-shagging and more penises than you can shake a stick at.” It’s the first time in seven years that a film has been banned from the festival. LaBruce defends his work stating, ”The film obviously has artistic merit or it wouldn’t be in competition at an A-list film festival.”

The film-maker’s last gay zombie film, Up with Dead People or Otto, (good Lord, there’s more than one???) premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2008.
