What a brilliant Movie! I got hooked right from the beginning and the irony at the end was superb. Emily you are going to be a star! Such natural acting talent. What a superb offering from young people. All aspects, story, camera angle and aspect, music, sound, lighting, script, set, costume, props, direction, acting. What a combination of raw talent. This has just got to win. Bring it on.
Good Luck!Angela Raw

This short film was absolutely great - the horror of a hollywood scream has been condensed into 10 minutes of amazing acting, brilliantly gruesome make-up and fab filming - the crew have done a great job :) I loved it

Well done. Very good effort for young filmmakers, choice of shots and editing was good.
If I'm 100% honest, I think the song at the end confused the genre. I must admit my heart sank a little when the dad spoke as a zombie, maybe he could have approved her in a look rather than dialogue?
Emily's performance was great. All in all a good First Light Film.Harriet A
