Review of Deadline

Deadline (I) (2002)
7/10
Absolutely delicious short!
12 December 2004
I think this is some kind of student-film project...or maybe the effort of a group of enthusiast horror fanatics. Whatever it is, I'm glad I saw it! Heck, I even regret that it only lasted a good 20 minutes because Deadline is one of the coolest Dutch things I ever saw. Three young journalists break into a company that designs violent video games in order to film a scoop. There, they encounter ravenous zombies that were infected by mutated mosquitoes. The short is very gore and stuffed with splendid references towards true horror classics. The locations are decorated by magnificent old movie posters, like the initial promotional poster of "Re-Animator". If you live anywhere near the Netherlands: track it down!
