'Hung Up On a Dream' is a captivating story of The Zombies with fresh information and magic

“What is apparent in Hung Up on a Dream and what forever keeps The Zombies together is the love and appreciation they have for one another and their music”

“I would have been a Zombies fan even if they had not come from my home towns of Hatfield and St.Albans. They have been simultaneously famously underrated and gloriously appreciated. It is always the time of the season for them as this marvellous film confirms.”
