If ever zombies were used as a metaphor this was it. In Thierry Poiraud's Don't Grow Up, a group of teenage delinquents fight to stay young, or suffer a fate of turning into a zombie (ie. a boring slave to the system).
I have to admit, Don't Grow Up looks great. Atmospheric and full of authentic sounding young actors. Will it be the Attack the Block of the zombie genre? Here's hoping.
Synopsis:
On an isolated island, a group of teenage delinquents living in a youth center wake up to find themselves alone with no one to watch over them. After much partying, their supervisor appears out [Continued ...]...

Filmed on the Canary Islands within Spain, Don't Grow Up began development in 2014. From director Thierry Poiraud (Goal of the Dead) and writer Marie Garel Weiss, the film stars Fergus Riordan, Madeleine Kelly, McKell David and many others. The film's first trailer is hosted here. The trailer begins with a voice-over narration, which this one-time Spanish speaker cannot interpret. However, other characters mention "this place," a radio talks about an "island," while another characters asks: "is he dead?" Later, a character asks "are you okay," in a hall - while an intertitle mentions "the evil." Other intertitles mention "no effect" and "to anybody?" Meanwhile, all hell is breaking loose as an infection spreads amongst the adults. The film is releasing in Spain, this week. However, there are no plans to...

Back in July last year a nationwide casting call was launched to find some new talent for Legacy, a new film from Unstoppable Entertainment and Think Big Productions.
Exec Produced by Noel Clarke (4.3.2.1, The Anomaly) and Jason Maza (The Knot, The Hooligan Factory) Legacy tells the story of five teenagers and the ultimate party of the year.
After auditioning hundreds of girls with no previous professional experience, Amy Tyger from Manchester won the lead female role of Dani. 21 year old Amy is now represented by Cole Kitchenn.
Dani is strong willed, fierce, aggressive yet still lovable, she is protective and more than a match for the groups’ machismo. She’s an attractive tomboy with deep-rooted femininity issues exacerbated by her elder sister Yasmin.
21 year old Franz Drameh (represented by Hamilton Hodell) plays Sean, the unspoken leader of the group.
Franz starred in Attack The Block, and he also plays Brandon...
