DEAD LIST EXECUTIVE BLURB: Very well written and deeply unsettling. Tense and extremely technical, with a good amount of grounded and inescapable realism. There's a slow Heretic-style unfolding to the horror and a gradual sense of foreboding as opposed to a load of heart-pumping jump scares. It's very current and relevant, playing on the fear of the uncontrollable forces and social imbalances of our world without falling into cliche. It's one of those scripts you read and then find yourself still thinking about the next day. — CREATIVE EXECUTIVE SHAUNA JOY
