“YESTERDAY shows that the genre's core values—effective use of a small budget, an intelligent look at humanity, and of course a bit of horror— are still taken seriously by some film makers out there” — Ben Austwick, QUIET EARTH When a strange flulike virus starts killing people and turning them into flesh-eating zombies, an unlikely group of guys band together, grab an SUV and head for the woods to wait out the epidemic. Shot in 16mm on a micro-budget of $25,000, YESTERDAY transcends its resources, filling every scene with great practical effects, car crashes, ballistics and, most importantly, cracklingly sharp dramatic and comedic performances by every single principal cast member.

A great accomplishment considering the budget. I know it's not exactly fair to compare across sub-genres, but these guys did much better for their money than the folks who cranked out "Five Across the Eyes' a couple of years back did with the same basic equipment and financial limitations. My major quibbles are that the good guys acted irrationally toward the end regarding the bad guys (it would've taken a trivial effort on the part of the heroes to have assured their continued saftey), and that there was a gross gender imbalance. If that was by design, I think it wasn't the best way to go.
