We are Expect Problems. We have been producing cheaply produced, independent and freely-available Australian films and serials since 2007.
We produced our first feature, a hacker-thriller titled Insecurity in 2007.
This was followed up by comedy-drama called Dead Man Drinking the following year.
Since then we have worked on multiple web serials and shorts including the post-apocalyptic horror/comedy Sharehouse Zombie Apocalypse and the help-desk parody Helldesk.
We released a short web series earlier this year about serial killers and bank robbers called The Deadliest Gentlemen.
We are currently completing the second and final series of SZA.

Sharehouse Zombie Apocalypse is a serialised horror-comedy story about the absurd side of the inevitable zombie apocalypse. Trapped in a sharehouse, the main characters deal with running problems such as power, internet access, zombie neighbours and running out of toilet paper.
The series consists of 7 youtube-length episodes in the first series, and a second series coming up this year.
Helldesk is a micro-series showing the horrors and trials of the front-line helpdesk worker.
Insecurity is a hacker film, but rather unlike any you're likely to have seen before. Almost everyone involved in its creation are, to one degree or another, involved in the IT industry or some other nerd subculture - and we've done our best to keep as technically accurate as we can.
In Dead Man Drinking, a discussion had by five friends results in four of them running off to house-sit for a long weekend while playing the game killer, a schoolyard game where each player has to "take out" targets over a period of time using everything from water pistols to bits of cardboard with "sword" written on them.
