  • Tune in to Short Lived to hear New Mexico-based filmmaker Zach Huber's story behind his stoner comedy, N-Bomb. Zach is a DIY filmmaker making a scene in Albuquerque, New Mexico, creating documentaries and funny-as-hell short films.

    Have you ever had a bad trip? One where you take a tab of acid and wake up with a bomb strapped to your nuts? Well, that's exactly what Zach Huber's short film is about, and believe it or not, it's based on a true story. Zach and his homies took the infamous designer drug "N-Bomb" and had a not-so-pleasant experience but walked away with a hilarious concept for a movie.

    N-Bomb is Wild Stoner Comedy where a group of friends try acid for the first time, and through a bad trip, they imagine one of them has a bomb strapped to him that they have to diffuse.
