"Your worst fear is your only hope"

A murderous, flesh-eating undead young girl haunting the remote stretch of woods where she was murdered decades earlier, discovers a kidnapped and abused boy hiding in the trunk of one of her victim’s cars.

    This is definitely an interesting movie that plays with drama, empathy, and horror. The story plays out well as it makes the backstory of Mina, the undead girl, the main thread that goes through what happens in the present with the boy she encounter, named Alex. There are some decent effects in this movie and the setting definitely give you that feeling of darkness between both characters. It doesn't get slow paced all that much or even losing of interest. It will give you that sense of something supernatural is linked to Mina and her struggle to get her humanity back that she might have to give up. It definitely give you the tones of abuse and loss of one's humanity. Even though it plays more to the empathy and drama than it does the horror, that shouldn't stop you from watching this movie if you have watched such movies that looks into the making of a person turned into a "monster" or urban legend.

The Battery

In rural Connecticut, baseball players Ben and Mickey are trying to survive a zombie plague. They are forced to form a battery: a catcher and a pitcher who work together to outwit the batter, the one who hits the ball. And the batter in this case just happens to be a zombie. Tough Ben and gentle Mickey frequently disagree on the best way to go about the situation. Then they suddenly hear a human voice through their walkie-talkies. Is salvation nearby, like Mickey thinks, or is Ben’s suspicion justified?
