Maybe it's because the premise of it being made with only £50 lowered my expectations so much, I thought it looks better shot than most soap dramas. I hope the story is told from an interesting angle and actually has some substance. Look forward to seeing it funnily, I thought the trailer looked quite good.

I liked the gory arm and the slingshot. The guy hissing at the end didn't evoke anything in me at all which was disappointing, but I'd probably give this a try anyhow. I love zombie movies.

I'd have liked it more if it were told from the POV of the zombie, like Gregor Samsa in The Metamorphosis. Instead of being told from a zombie's limited POV, it's just a movie with a zombie as the main character... hollywood gives us enough actors who do that unintentionally as it is. Thanks for the post though, I'll definitely alert my zombie-movie-loving friend to it. I held a spark of interest from reading the premise here, but the preview dashed it.

There is something inherently glamorous and marketable about the whole "This movie only cost blahblahblah" angle for the Cannes people, I'm sure. I only hope its not just a bait and switch method of trying to pimp a crappy movie based on the story that went into making it. I get the feeling that film festivals are looking for a new indie boom. The big ones (Cannes, Sundance, even Toronto) have not had really volatile and groundbreaking years in a while. Each festival this decade spits out one, maybe two good indie movies, whereas the early to mid 90s gave us a butt load of cool indie flicks. I'm sure they are digging really deep to rebuild the Tarantino/Rodriguez/Anderson/Soderberg/Smith bonanza. This is not to say movies have gotten better or worse in the past few years. Now that I think about it, the best new indie flicks I can recall this decade all gained most of their momentum from DVD. That being said, I'm a sucker for all things zombie, so I'm in.
