Zombie Roadkill

Zombie Roadkill is a comedy/horror miniseries created by Fearnet.com. It is, unsurpisingly, about the reanimated remains of various woodland creatures taking unholy revenge on the cars that ran them over.

We follow five college kids on a roadtrip, which takes a severe swerve for the worse when they run over a squirrel that immediately comes back to life and chases them down. The trip takes a decided downhill turn from there.

The first episode can be found here.
