“This film has been popping up around horror circles so Iu0026#39;ll admit i was intrigued…people who had seen it mentioned that it was kind of like a zombie movie but not, so then I was little less intrigued (iu0026#39;ve seen enough zombie movies) but I had the lucky opportunity to see this film at the Shock u0026amp; Gore fest in Birmingham and it was definitely worth it.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s not a zombie movie per se. There are some similarities, but these guys put a little twist on the genre and itu0026#39;s a really interesting take on the whole thing. Would love to know if this is a commentary on a certain heated global topic but I donu0026#39;t want to give anything away so I will leave it at that and guess that perhaps the filmmaker is sending out a message maybe thru film. Which is the beauty of filmmaking. You tell a story and reveal a truth now and then. But I digress.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis film has really good pacing. Never once was I bored, nor did I roll my eyes. It kept me engaged at all times and I really loved Wren Walkeru0026#39;s performance as the lead. She was smart, caring, funny, tough and vulnerable at the same time, a leader and talented. All the things that make a person, in this particular case, a woman, beautiful.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThere are definitely some things (i.e. stripper stunts) that were…interesting to say the least and some really great kills, espeicially for a low budget film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;m more of a cricket man myself but the baseball element throughout was a nice touch. Whenever you put little touches of sport in an otherwise non-sport movie, thereu0026#39;s something about that that I like. I donu0026#39;t know what it is.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOverall, had a fun time and will definitely look forward to seeing this one again.”
