DEAD LIST EXECUTIVE BLURB: Intelligent dialogue and an incredibly rich tone pulled me in. I enjoy being dropped into hot water, right in the middle of the conversation, and having to figure it out on the fly and that's exactly what this script does. It has some really interesting characters, no heavy exposition between them, just enough tantalising hints at their backstories to keep you guessing. The setting is great and I'm also a sucker for this exact time period. War mixed with horror is a marriage made in heaven and there aren't (could never be) enough movies that explore that link between war and hell. I just think it's neat, I think that's great. And I'm also not mad that it's a total gore-fest. — CREATIVE EXECUTIVE SHAUNA JOY
