Horror-Comedy All You Need is Blood screens at the Fall 2024 New Jersey Film Festival on September 14!
by Meaghan Mooney - published 2024-09-10
Cooper Robert's feature film All You Need is Blood is a bold entry into the horror-comedy genre and offers a fresh cinematic experience, blending dark humor with supernatural elements, anchored by the strong performances of the leading cast. The film follows amateur filmmaker Bucky, seeking the mentorship of a legendary filmmaker and ultimately producing a campy, zombie slasher. This delves into human behavior's complexities and intertwines personal struggles with an overarching sense of suspense. A playful and inventive visual style characterizes Cooper Roberts' direction. The vibrant color palette and dynamic cinematography enhance the film's humorous and horror elements, creating a visually engaging experience. The film maintains a comedic tone while making a believable zombie world through quick camera movements and practical effects. Roberts successfully balanced the horror aspect of this film and the comedic elements, with the humor complementing rather than overshadowing the zombie theme. In the words of Dick Boeing, "Is this a comedy?" The film is aware of its genre-bending and balance of the two. The script is filled with witty and clever dialogue, pulls the audience in, and entertains them with a playful score and situational comedy.
