what better way to follow Transgender Awareness Week and Trans Day of Remembrance with a horror comedy, co-written and directed by a genderqueer trans woman and featuring zir in a supporting role, about a group of queer friends banding together to protect one another and seek shelter from a zombie apocalypse this 42-minute featurette was shot in Austin, TX on a budget of approximately $400, part of which was used to buy a camera and audio-recording equipment. the shaky-hand-held camera shooting is no worse, and probably a lot better, than in a lot of larger-budget found-footage horror movies, and the stylised photoshopped special effects and sometimes non-linear editing by director Verity Ritchie (credited as Ritch Ludlow) are very nicely done the script and dialogue, though not flawless, are well-written and deliberately incorporate feminist values and humor. i laughed out loud more than once, and in addition to the non-binary writers representing non-binary trans/gender-nonconforming characters, asexual and queer polyamorous folks are given positive representation in this movie the acting isn't great per se but works well with the d.i.y. spirit of the film. it doesn't detract from the story or diverse cast of characters, each of which have their own personalities and are quite likable, apart from the token cishet. the original score by Katie Morton (April Fish), a mix of piano, percussion and variegated electronic sound, and the queer folk punk/indie rock soundtrack are highlights of the filmit's a well-made-despite-its-budget, one-of-a-kind movie that i look forward to watching again and highly recommend to other trans and queer folks. it's free to watch on youtube (just search the title), along with special features including outtakes and a 20-minute q&a by the writers
