Review of Colin

Colin (2008)
9/10
More than just a zombie film
26 May 2009
I have been lucky enough to see a preview of this film and it really is a VERY good film. Obviously, being a very low budget film it has its technical flaws and in some cases the shaky camera work doesn't quite hit the spot that it was meant to, but none of this can take away from the quality of the story, acting and execution of this film. Marc Price is clearly a very talented director in many ways. He has managed to conjure up a fantastic post zombie world and via our journey we get insights into this world. Along this journey there is plenty of gore and a touch of comedy but most surprisingly there are also a few tears and a lot to think about! There are moments of pure emotion which bought a tear to the eye of many of the people watching the film and this is all bought about by Alistair Kirtons (Colin) great ability to play with your emotion without saying a word and Marc Prices ability to do the same with the world he creates, he uses also uses music to good effect and the soundtrack of this film is very good in this regard. There is so much more to say about this film and the multitude of ideas that is addresses, but I guess half the fun is discovering that for yourself, so lets hope this films gets out there very soon
