   About Barackula -The Musical
Barackula is a short political horror rock musical about young Barack Obama having to stave off a secret society of vampires at Harvard when he was inducted into presidency at the Harvard Law Review in 1990. Obama (Justin Sherman) finds that he must convince the vampire society that opposing political philosophies can coexist or else the society may transform Obama to the dark side. Reminiscent to Michael Jackson's Thriller, and a slight infusion of Jesus Christ Superstar, this short film offers two original musical numbers, "Running" and "This Is Our Time," which, lyrically, are allegorical to Obama's current campaign and speeches. The film solely depicts Obama’s strengths, merits and genuineness while being quietly respectful towards the other presidential candidates. This short musical (run time approx. 10 min) is highly entertaining with dancing Harvard student vampires, fantastic choreography by Victor Tang and Sherman’s physical likeness to Obama is remarkable. Shot on the new RED ONE camera, the quality of the film itself is stunning. Produced by Justin Sherman, Gavin Leighton, Brooke Shirey and Mike Lawson, Barackula – The Musical is exceedingly unique amidst today’s vast online media created by the voting public. The intent of the film makers is to create something fun and memorable during this year’s election.

Barackula - The Musical was filmed January 26-27th. NOW PLAYING ON BARACKULA.COM!

See the effect that great story telling has on some of us! Thank you for sharing your gifts of telling Barack's story with the world in a humorous, fun and sincere way!

Looking forward for the best!

Imagine this,A law firm in CA, A lawyer and receptionist sitting in front of the computer screen watching the greatest musical ever! "Barackula"
Lawyer: This is GREAT!! I can't wait to tell my husband! Thank you for showing this to me.
Receptionist:Of course! See you tomorrow! BYe!
The next day.....
Lawyer enters,
Lawyer:"So I went home and told my husband about "Barackula" and he already knew all about it! Said he's heard it and seen it everywhere!
Receptionist smiles.

....enough said.
