    • Trivia
      The idea for the script came when screenwriter Ben Kurstin was driving through Harvey, a town on the south side of Chicago, and passed by the old Dixie Square Mall where the car chase mall scene was filmed for the movie "The Blues Brothers." It was closed in November of 1978 and has been slowly falling apart ever since. Seeing it as a great location for a post apocalyptic movie, he began writing Chrysalis...but well before production started, the mall was torn down.

    A Zzzzz movie
    UK title - The Living Dead. When my friend lent me this on DVD he did warn me that it was boring: and he wasn't lying! Three survivors of a zombie/infected apocalypse find themselves holed up in an old, abandoned building - zero marks for originality! This film is as much a drama as it is horror, a lot of the running time focuses on the relationships & interactions between the three. Many zombie fans will feel short changed. Having said that there is some zombie action, plus a brief sex scene to liven things up (nice hooters!). Acting & production values are OK. Problem is that it's boring, predictable & adds nothing new to a subgenre that's already been done to death.
