Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The street battle scene was shot in London without permission. A call was made to the police informing them of a "riot" in progress. When a lone policeman arrived to investigate the unlikely cause of the complaint he discovered a street littered with body parts and a number of people sporting bloody injuries courtesy of the make-up team. Fortunately the policeman was amused with what he saw and instead of confiscating any equipment he opted to take a few pictures on his mobile phone and leave the cast and crew continue shooting. In the event of the policeman reacting unfavourably to shooting without a permit Marc Price removed the tape and handed it to a crew member then approached the policeman, empty camera in hand, in order to save the footage that had been shot. more

A zombie film from the zombies point of view., 8 August 2009
9/10
Author: Pericles Lewnes from Maryland, United States

This movie pulls off a new spin on the zombie genre which is being done to death. (Sorry) This is a very smart film by a smart director and a talented lead actor. This movie is creepy, gore laden and at times humorous. I would say say that this approaches "Romeroesque" in it's execution. It was being hyped that this movie cost only $70, but I think that was hype to get people to see it at the markets. It doesn't really matter how little it costs, COLIN is a tiny masterpiece that will end up a classic that will transcend the genre. I hope the this movie gets it's due. Right now, Independent Film is an orphan with so many distribution outlets drying up. Well done Mr. Price.
