The majority of the film is repurposed footage. Large chunks of Bruno Mattei's Hell of the Living Dead (1980) are re-dubbed and mixed together with scenes from Zombies Vs. Strippers (2012), while clips of real-world news footage and Donald Trump press conferences are sprinkled in. The only new footage features Cody Renee Cameron as a ditzy blonde named Barbie who learns of the coronavirus outbreak via the news.
One of the first filmed productions about Covid-19 and the 2020 global health pandemic. The first full length feature film was Mostafa Keshvari's 'Corona' (2020) which premiered at the Rhode Island Film Festival on 8th August 2020. The made for TV 'Love in the Time of Corona: A Comedy' (2020) was the first television series and was first broadcast on 19th March 2020. The London set 'ShoPaapaa' (2020) is the first full length British feature film about Covid-19, and had its world premiere on 21st October 2020 at the Adelaide Film Festival, just two days before the global streaming premiere of 'Borat Subsequent Moviefilm' (2020) on 23rd October 2020, Sacha Baron Cohen's 'Borat' sequel, which also covers the coronavirus. In 2020, there are no less than seven filmed productions entitled 'Love in the Time of Corona' / 'Love in the Time of Coronavirus' - these titles being derived from the title of the Gabriel García Márquez novel and later film 'Love in the Time of Cholera'. 'Songbird' (2020) is reportedly the ''first feature film to be made during COVID-19 in Los Angeles'' and is the first major Hollywood movie about the Coronavirus.
Contains music excerpts from Dawn Of The Dead (1978)
When Charles Band and Full Moon Features announced this film, it was met with outrage. Chris Alexander, the writer/director/musician who works closely with Band on his various ventures, shared the news on his Facebook page and it was met with a collective response of "now is not the time."
First film of the Barbie and Kendra trilogy by Charles Band.
