Default Short Zombie Movie

Check out this 8 minute zombie movie I acted in which my buddy filmed outside of Lethbridge. Feature length movie following up this story being filmed in Calgary this summer. Hope you enjoy.

I liked it. It had a very 28 Days Later feel to it, and was well executed. I liked the dialogue and the special effects.

A couple plot questions.

How come the Zombies weren't frozen solid if it was so cold? Does the infection keep them warm? If so, shouldn't the soldiers be using infrared scopes? I was slightly disappointed that a zombie sequence taking place in Canada (FINALLY!) didn't explore the whole "frozen zombie" angle. That's just a wishlist thing for me though.

Why didn't anyone have to reload? Did they steal some alien technology that allows infinite ammo?

Why would a Sgt suggest a rustle in the bushes might just be a coyote? Shouldn't a ranking NCO be the first one to open fire on anything that moves in a zombie infested world? Perhaps he was promoted for the wrong reasons.

It didn't really make sense to me why the soldiers were in a house. Or why the house had red lights and an alarm. You would assume if it was a base, the soldiers would be on some sort of elevated platform, and they could just pull up the ladder if a bunch of zombies approached.

Just some things that occurred to me as I was watching it. Again - I really enjoyed it, and look forward to seeing more Canadian zombie sequences!

Great work on the film, and thanks for sharing!

Reminded me too much of 28 days later, especially the Godspeed You! Black Emperor-esque music.

Damn, from the title of this thread, I was hoping that this was a full-length movie about little-person zombies. Still good though.
