David was playing the part of a young gravedigger in director Conor McMahons rural horror film “Dead Meat” where mad cow disease has infected the local population turning them into, well you guessed it flesh eating Zombies. This was Day 1 for David and he was just dressed up in rural garb about to fling himself in front of a car when I took this portrait of him in the fairy woods of Leitrim. / I love this portrait as it is timeless or more to the point it harks back to the Golden age of movie heroes and stars and David is one here.

Dead Meat was the name of the film and as young as he looks and was, still does, in 2003 he was directing his first feature film a micro-budget horror flick funded by the Irish Film Board. The movie centred around the premise that cattle who got mad cow disease more than went mental they in fact became homocidal flesh eating zombies! The film was shot on location in the wet lands of Leitrim and Roscommon. Zombies were also hired en-masse from this locale for sandwiches and tea.
A scene from thefilm “Dead Meat” by Conor McMahon shot in 2003 in Counties Leitrim and Roscommon in Ireland. See Conors portrait o get a wee synopsis of the general story. Here, our female lead Helana’s boyfriend, a bit of a cad by all accounts, has succumbed to the virus after being bitten by a man he ran over in his car. Yes. Helana is looking for help in an awful cottage, which was truly awful in real life and where the floors bled during our preperation. Uh. I hated this place and it really truly gave me the creeps. It was here that the previous evil occupants had kept a homeboy,a child that they had cunningly adopted and then enslaved and abused him for the rest of their lives. The place reeked of badness.

Taken on the Film shoot of “Dead Meat”, myself and Eleanor the camera assistant were in one of those multiple dull moments where you have done your work and are now waiting. So I decided to grab a few shots of Eleanor who came to the movie set with this wonderful temporary scar called Alan.
