Short film American Virus is part of the horror anthology Virus of the Dead. An anthology that is a long time in the making, beginning production over three years ago and now with a set release date over a year away (18th May 2019) – which means, hopefully, it will at least start to be seen by people.
At only five minutes long, American Virus is a slightly strange mix of frantic hand-held camera footage, fake news reports, people directly looking at and talking into a camera and random but relevant stock footage. Flipping between both black and white and colour on the screen. It’s not actually as bizarre as it sounds written down and it actually all gels together surprisingly well. Feeling like a hectic and exciting five minutes...

The year is 1989 and after a rocket launch from the American Military goes wrong, a virus has attacked the small town nearby. But a ten year old boy with a video camera might be able to help.
As a synopsis that doesn’t sound like your normal short film and after watching Guerilla, it really isn’t your normal short film… It’s more like a very long video montage. Or six music videos played non-stop together. If you think that sounds like a bad idea, it actually works out a lot better than you’d think.
With no dialogue whatsoever, the music is a huge part of Guerilla. Being set in the eighties and with a director that is clearly heavily influenced by the era,...
