Horror. Sci-Fi. Drama Martin (Connor Paolo) was a normal teenage boy before the country collapsed in an empty pit of economic and political disaster. A vampire epidemic has swept across what is left of the nation's abandoned towns and cities, and it's up to Mister, a death dealing, rogue vampire hunter, to get Martin safely north to Canada, the continent's New Eden.

United States	Alissa Simon Variety	"A highly satisfying low-budget horror-thriller"	POS
United Kingdom	Kim Newman Empire	"A vampire post-apocalypse road movie with blood, brains and heart — and not just in the literal, splattered-on-the-screen sense. It’s a good little genre piece, edgy rather than slick, and well worth a look. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"A good-looking, well-played and atmospheric apocalyptic vision. There are pauses for thoughtful character moments and some nicely written dialogue (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Justin Lowe The Hollywood Reporter	"A gritty, low-key hybrid of horror film and road movie that aptly demonstrates the stylistic flexibility of this undying genre."	POS
United States	Ben Sachs Chicago Reader	"The expressive rendering of rural locations is distinctive and the vision of societal breakdown fully imagined"	POS
United Kingdom	Cath Clarke The Guardian	"An inventive horror film (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
