About the ZBBC

The ZBBC (Zombie and the Brain Broadcasting Company) is a group of independent film makers based out of the greater New Orleans area. We enjoy creating fun works of comedy with a twist of horror. We particularly focus on the Zombie genre, but take no issue with poking fun at other monsters and pop-culture (glittering vampires or otherwise).

Matt Standley Headshot Matt Standley
Actor/Singer/Thespian

Matt, a delightfully debonair dork, dreams to display daring dramatics in Dawn of the Dead's 60th do-over during the day in 2064. He will be 78 that year and hopes to still be alive and kickin'...zombies in the face!

He went to college for Theatre Performance and will continue to pursue it as a profession until his undying day. He tries to achieve brevity in bios and will now leave you with this:

Those zombie haikus
Are the way of the future.
You're reading one now.

Matt is currently listed with the Louisiana Talent Agency
and is represented by Lawrence Turner.

James "AD for Life" Huval
Assistant Director/Web Developer/Producer/Jack of All Trades

James is an IT analyst by day and pretty much everything else by night. In addition to the titles listed above, James fills in for other positions as needed including acting, sound, and music. He loves his music.

For the record, his hair's been chopped off since the pic featured left and donated to Wigs for Kids. There are days when he misses it, but he's learning to survive.
