Yesterday, my zombie troubles seemed so far away

You can make a lot of fake blood for $25K. In the movie YESTERDAY, director Rob Grant makes sure the audience get a healthy dose of old school makeup and monster FX, including but not limited to sticky red corn syrup squirting hither and thither.

Quality bloodwork means a lot on super grainy 16mm film stock. And while there’s something beautiful about cheap film, I can’t help but to think that $25,000 Canadian dollars would have gone farther shooting in an inexpensive proconsumer HD format.

Bad dialog and bad acting permeate the film. With the exception of a bullet hole POV cam, most of the shots stink of lazy photography. Two zombie feet (out of five rotten foots). View the trailer
