Directed by <strong>Matthias Dinter<\/strong> and produced by <strong>Philip Voges<\/strong> and <strong>Andreas Schneppe<\/strong>, the story follows outsiders Philip, Konrad, and Wurst (<strong>Tino Mewes<\/strong>, <strong>Thomas Schmieder<\/strong>, <strong>Manuel Cortez<\/strong>), who turn into zombies after a voodoo ritual. At first, they enjoy their newfound powers, but soon they search for a way back to life. The film was praised for its humorous take on the genre.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1640,"menu_order":19,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[72],"portfolio_skills":[],"portfolio_tags":[],"class_list":["post-2618","avada_portfolio","type-avada_portfolio","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-projekte-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/2618","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/avada_portfolio"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2618"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/2618\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2727,"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/avada_portfolio\/2618\/revisions\/2727"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1640"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2618"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"portfolio_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_category?post=2618"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_skills","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_skills?post=2618"},{"taxonomy":"portfolio_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/andreas-grimm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portfolio_tags?post=2618"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
