When we heard about a 12-year-old girl from Austin, Texas, who made a zombie movie, we couldn't wait to talk to her! Emily Hagins (now 16) wrote the script and she and her mom, Maggie, served as crew on "Pathogen", doing everything themselves with a camcorder, Mac and some ingenuity. Some other filmmakers in the area got wind of it when she posted a casting call, and the resulting documentary, "Zombie Girl: The Movie" is an entry at this year's Slamdance Film Festival.

Tonight was the premiere, and we got to chat with Emily, Maggie and the three directors of the film just after they arrived in Utah and before the big event. She's absolutely as cool as you imagine, and bonus - she loves the Muppets! (You'll have to watch to find out who's her favorite.)
