John Dies At The End

Written and directed by Don Coscarelli (Phantasm, Beastmaster, Bubba Ho Tep) and starring Paul Giamatti, John Dies at the End follows two college dropouts who can barely hold down jobs as they attempt to save humankind. Based on the best-selling book.

Although very much an indie, nearly half of the film was shot on stage, including the Chinese restaurant which serves as the backbone of the narrative. This 360 degree set, complete with full ceiling, front entrance and kitchen area, was over 70 feet long.
