LOS ANGELES – Americans will soon learn there are more creatures in New Zealand than just hobbits.
Thanks to the expanding cinematic universe of Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi, the list now includes vampires, werewolves, zombies, disco-era ghosts and projectile-vomiting demons.
The “Flight of the Conchords” star Clement and the “Thor: Ragnarok” director Waititi co-wrote, co-directed and co-starred in the 2014 film about a group of New Zealand vampire housemates, “What We Do in the Shadows,” and co-created the U.S. TV series of the same name on FX.
Now, they're bringing their New Zealand TV show, “Wellington Paranormal,” to the U.S. with a premiere on The CW on Sunday.
