Reviews

BA_Harrison Cargo, a touching 7-minute Australian short by directors Ben Howling and Yolanda Ramke, focuses on just one of the small-scale personal tragedies that occurs as a result of a zombie outbreak.The film opens with a man (Andy Rodoreda) waking from a car crash to find that his wife (Alison Gallagher), still strapped in by her seat belt, has turned into a zombie, and that he has been bitten on the arm. His baby daughter (Ruth Venn) is in the back of the car, unharmed. How can he guarantee the safety of his child once he also becomes a zombie?Without giving away the answer, his plan is both a little yucky and rather ingenious, leading to a satisfying conclusion that should pull on the heartstrings of even the most hardened zombie fans.
atinder This is short movie, was really good, it only 7 min long A guy wakes up in his Car, there is a baby crying in the back ground and seem to come around. the look of it, he as been I a car crash, as turn to look at his wife Then she that become some kind of zombie but lucky for him she still in her seat belt.As the rest of short, is about the father trying save is baby but he turn into zombie as also find out he as been bitten.which was really good and really effect, even it's just 7 mins it's well short, it was well acted and the plot really moving and Make up effect for zombie was really good. I going to give short 8 out of 10
epsilonmight I have watched this countless times and honestly, I cannot even begin to describe when I start seeing the little nuances in this short film. However short it is, the plot is tight and it effectively encapsulates the story from past to present and future.I am not one who likes horror but even as I cringe from the first 2 minutes (maybe first minute or less), the film just gets better. Definitely right up my alley than crap with poor plots and cheap scares.Unless if you are a film critic, and even by that standards it is pretty good, you may (probably) be like me and repeat-watch this for the little actions that the father do and trust me, your gut just gets punched more.
TBJCSKCNRRQTreviews With a solid opening(effective storytelling defined; aspiring filmmakers, take notes. Make a list of just how many things are communicated by the start of this, if you want protips), this brings us into the middle of a zombie apocalypse, with a man determined to save his infant. But there's one huge problem - he's already been bitten.When there is no more room for new takes on this subgenre, the crap will overload it. And in that situation, maybe the best thing to do is to focus on the characters, and give the audience a small-scale, personal story. It has been said that the way to determine if a monster story is good or not, is whether the creature could be removed, or at the very least replaced, and there would still be something compelling there. This, like many classical tales, succeeds that test, where many fail.The 6 and a half minute(without credits, 7 with) running time flies by. If anything, it starts out on a high note, and only gains in traction. It gets increasingly devastating as it goes. While you won't realize immediately "what is going on"(what the man is actually doing and why), once you do, it's a fantastic idea, and you cheer in an earnest way that few current productions inspire. Production values are excellent, everything feels real, the Romero-esque setting is entirely credible.There is constant disturbing content and a little bloody, brutal violence in this. I recommend this to everyone who likes undead horror. 8/10
