Zero Hour Movie Reviews: Dead Within

Sometimes a horror film can be much more terrifying when the horror itself is left to the viewers imagination. This is especially true to films that have a tight budget, in which the director has to become clever with the way the movie reveals it's scares. Too much CGI can lead to the audience finding the movie laughable instead of scary. Dead Within is a movie that is very original with it's scares, I found it to be a very entertaining watch despite being low budget. Similar to Pontypool (film) the movie is filmed in one location, where the characters are faced with a unseen zombie threat. Rather then focusing on the undead hordes, the viewer is instead a witness to the paranoia the encompasses the lives of a young couple holding up in their barricaded cabin. From the start I found the movie to be very intriguing, which is why I happily give Dead Within a four out of five stars. If you liked Pontypool (film) then you should definitely give this one a shot!
