It's been 72 hours since the zombie outbreak, and in the direct
aftermath, Andy (Andrea Dean Van Scoyoc) hasn't been scared at all because
she had come prepared: She had stocked up food, barred all the doors and
windows, and when the power went (and she had of course neglected getting
a generator yet) she had sent out her husband to at least get a phone
charger. Now however, her careless attitude has changed considerably,
hubby has never come back from his expedition for a phone charger, power
hasn't got back either, the zombies have cut off her access to her
provisions, and keep reaching through the bars to try and grab her. So in
72 hours, pretty much everything has fallen apart ... 72
Hours is a very unusual film to say the least - and in a good way,
too: It's a zombie film without a single zombie, without any on-screen
violence even or any kind of spectacle. Instead it concentrates on what
ought to be the core of every horror movie, and that's fear. And to create
that, all this film needs is a capable actress recounting a compelling
story to a camera (probably a mobile phone) that films the whole thing at
a seemingly random angle - thing is, this works, and sends chills down
one's spine. ... and if this has sparked your interest, feel
