E4 is turning Chris Boyle’s cult zombie comedy I Spit On Your Rave into a weekly television series. Originally developed as a mockumentary-style film set in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by the undead, the concept is now being adapted into a half-hour comedy format.
The original film debuted as part of the Film4 FrightFest and gained a following for its unique blend of horror and satire. E4 aims to preserve that tone while developing a serialized version that explores life in a world where zombies and humans attempt to co-exist.
This development signals E4’s continued interest in genre-blending shows that appeal to younger viewers. With its offbeat premise and potential for dark humor, the series could join the ranks of the channel’s unconventional hits.
Casting and production details are expected soon, with the pilot episode currently in the scripting phase.
