Elza Kephart (born 1976) is a Canadian filmmaker. She is perhaps best known for Graveyard Alive: A Zombie Nurse in Love (2004), a film that she wrote, directed and produced. The film was well received by critics who appreciated its camp horror and feminist motifs, while at the same time harkening back to more traditional days of black and white, Techniscope widescreen. A native of Montreal, Kephart works and films out of her hometown with Bastard Amber Productions, a company she founded in 2002 with the creation of Naughty Soxxx, a series of pseudo-porn vignettes featuring socks.
Her 2006 release Beyond the Pearly Gates of Ill Repute, co-directed with Elizabeth Lawrence, premiered at the Fantasia Festival.
Kephart was assistant to Tony Goldwyn while he directed The Last Kiss (2006) and she provided computer support for The Greatest Game Ever Played (2005).
She also appeared in a 2009 documentary Pretty Bloody: The Women of Horror.

Patsy Powers (Day-Jones) is a homely nurse who pines for handsome Dr. Dox (Gerhardt). Unfortunately for Patsy, the well-favoured physician only has eyes for pretty Goodie Tueshuez (Slan) - a jealous-minded nurse obsessed with popularity. When a foul-smelling woodsman is admitted to the hospital with an axe imbedded in his forehead, the rest of the nurse staff runs for cover as kindly Patsy and the injured worker form a warm bond. Later, after Patsy and the rugged lumberjack share a kiss, the smitten nurse is thrown off guard when her new beau reflexively sinks his teeth into her flesh. As Patsy runs off to bandage her wound, Eastern European doctor-turned-janitor Kapotski recognizes the woodsman as a zombie and ends the man's suffering with a stake through the head. In the days that follow, Patsy's body is gradually taken over by the zombie virus. Not only does the transformation aversely affect Patsy's eating habits, it instills her with a newfound confidence that quickly catches the eye of Dr. Dox as well. Perplexed by her mousy co-worker's sudden transformation and determined to keep Dr. Dox for herself, the scheming Goody soon sets out to uncover the secret of Patsy's rising popularity. Now, as Patsy struggles to stay well fed and Dr. Dox grows increasingly inpatient with Goodie's unpalatable jealousy, the stage is set for a romance fueled by enough passion to transcend life and death.
