As he struggled through his shoot in an abandoned utility, the martinet director of a low-end zombie film was fuming over the stilted performances and shoddy effects. He'd get a burst of renewed inspiration, though, as the plant got invaded by genuine walking dead-and he'd start capturing the considerable carnage in one continuous take! Filmmaker Shin'ichir~ Ueda's micro-budgeted effort with a no-name cast became a critical and commercial sensation. 96 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack Japanese; Subtitles English. In Japanese with English subtitles. Two-disc set.

Late in her pregnancy, Ruth (writer/director Alice Lowe) was faced with coming to term alone after her partner died in a climbing accident.

Darkly comic shocker also stars Jo Hartley, Tom Davis, Kate Dickie, Gemma Whelan. 88 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.
