I am reluctant to call this "horror", and I don't think the movie ever really tried to be. Instead what we get is a rather approach to the "zombie" concept that is far more a drama about humans, family and finding yourself.
Acting is good. Sound is mixed so I didn't have to turn it way up to hear conversations and then go deaf when anything else made noise (a rarity these days. Bless you, sound mixer!).
Over all I think it was a strong production, with thoughtful writing and good acting. Would recommend.
No sex or nudity. Some passionate kissing.
Mild gore If there was swearing, then I missed it.

This starts as a slow burn, which ramps up quickly and has a talented cast that i hope to see in other, better movies. A special shout out to Scarlett Perduto, who managed to bring real nuance to her role. The story was well written, and the actors did great with their parts.
Unfortunately it's held back from being great (or particularly good) by the direction - for some reason the director decided to go with a single take, which adds nothing and distracts plenty. Between this, strobing lights and an infatuation with shooting upside down, the camera is preoccupied with gimmicks that do nothing but obscure what could have been atmospheric shots and a good set piece.
