Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Shot in 2001 around Brisbane on digital video, it became the first Australian zombie feature and launched the Spierig brothers' Hollywood careers.
The film's meteor-zombie origin and alien twist deliberately mocks both Romero's slow social commentary and 2000s CGI-heavy horror.
