The fact of the matter is that, I only gave this a 9, because I wanted it to go on for a bit more. Thats the only truly disappointing part of this whole thing. I mean, you want to know what happened. Its quite gripping actually. A starving man in the woods, hiding from the inevitable. Walking Dead show is unfortunately preceding this ambitious character study about survivors desperately clinging to sanity at the end of the world. Not only is this an exercise in genuine filmmaking style, but the few actors in it have invested realism. The shame here is that in the wake of Walking Dead, it is interesting to think what might have happened with this little short, as rumor has it that it was being developed with a television series in mind. Zombie fanfare is oft imitated, seldom if ever stand alone, and because the filmmakers have not omitted emotional resonance, this horror entry stands leagues above the others. For almost 15 minutes I was absolutely riveted. There is a obvious sense of directorial style here, and as a film buff, I could not help but wonder if these people who made this might actually be the real thing. Hollywood needs talent of this caliber, and it goes without saying that I will be eagerly anticipating their next entry in the genre. Solid talent all the way around, imagine what these folks could do with a huge budget. Thanks Badfritter, keep it up.

I will open by admitting honestly i am not a huge fan of the short film ,but yet have a desire to go to Tropfest each year -cant explain it but i am interested just not a fan-....so when i received a message on my face book review page -Midi's Horror Review PAGE- to view a short film by budding film makers BadFritter i felt i would do so with an open mind .

I am very glad i did ....i have watched some awful films in my life and was convinced i would probably end up viewing some bizarre piece which was either too art-house -even though i like them- or just of poor quality.

To be honest Badfritter films i must say thank you ....i feel enlightened for opening my mind.

The script leaves it quite open to be developed further but the basic premise was inviting and intriguing to me .I actually enjoyed it thoroughly ,all 14mins of it, and will happily view your films in the future if they will be of such caliber.

My only criticism is i don't like shaky cameras and at times it occurred that way -no fault on you guys i assume you have minor funds and are seeking financial aid to build up on your resources-......i will add i hate films like Cloverfield that rely on handy cams shaking everywhere so its nothing personal . Its my own preference thats all.

The link to their face book page is available on my page ,for anyone who would like to join in and watch this small production .I also implore you to support these guys and join their page ,because god knows.....we need new meat with some form of originality out there in horror land .
