Otto; or Up with Dead People is pretty much my favorite gay zombie film directed by Bruce LaBruce, a very creative underground porn star. The film follows the coming-of-age of Otto, a handsome and sensitive neo-Goth zombie with an identity crisis. Otto basically looks and smells like a zombie but isn't certain that he is one. Already smells like fetish spirit. Here is a note to you from Otto himself:
Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a boy of no wealth and some distaste. My name is Otto. I unlive in Berlin sometimes, sometimes farther north, depending on mood. Then again, I only have one mood: dead. Undead. I find it difficult to make an unliving because I am homeless. I recently starred in a movie called Otto, made by a crazy lesbian avant-garde filmmaker named Medea Yarn. She paid me a little, but I'm waiting for the royalties. Speaking of royalty, I was once anointed Prince of the Zombies. It was at a garbage dump. You had to be there. You'll have to excuse me for now. I have to go eat some roadkill. A bientot. x Otto
