    The Battery {2012}

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2272350/


    Director: Jeremy Gardner








    The personalities of two former baseball players clash as they traverse the rural back roads of a post-plague New England teeming with the undead.




    This is an amazing film. I saw this over the weekend. It is a road movie with a zombie Apocalypse as the background. I felt like I was right along with these two fellas. It felt so natural.

    Ben has accepted that the world will never be the same. On the other hand Mickey wants life back as he knew it. The two clash..

    Some great scenes between the two friends, apples, music, cinematography, zombies, baseball...and a really great scene with some zombie tits..

    Give this a watch. : )


    This movie was filmed in 15 days with a budget of 6,000 dollars.

    Looks pretty good for such a short time and low budget.

    I just finished it, and I liked it. Atypical zombie flick that's more of a characer study, rather than the usual gorefest. It focuses on the personality clashes of the two teammates, and the bond that the two develope after being brought together after a zombie apocalypse breaks out.

    IMO it's probably more real to life of how it would be under those conditions than most of the zombie flicks out there. It deserves a watch.

    There's a scene after a credit or two that makes me really want there to be a followup.

    Not a low-budget fan but this doesn't look too bad. I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

    Just finished it and fuck me... what a great film, I was a bit put off by the longish run time, since I was expecting just another fun no budget Z flick ... I did not think this film would be so well made and engaging ... am going to "review" this film BUT for now I will just say wow.... This flick is truly a breath of fresh air and hats off to all involved, I sure as shit will be buying a copy for my collection.
    Thank you Woodenheart for the heads up!

    I asked one of the people involved with this film on another forum about a DVD release and he said they are unsure when it will happen. It should do so considering how good this movie is...I too cannot wait for it

    You're Welcome.

    I have talked with the cinematographer and the husband of the zombie woman.. , looks like no DVD release as of yet. : ( Its only available thru iTunes. Maybe seeing the totals from iTunes they may search out a distributor. They would like a full DVD/BluRay release with behind the scenes out takes and commentary. I would love to have this film in my hands.

    Just saw this and really dug it! Not too much into the Zombie thing, but as previously stated, this one was a little different.

    The film has only been available digitally, however, some great news has come in: Shout! Factory has acquired the film right to release the flick on DVD and Blu-ray!

    This will certainly help get The Battery the wider audience is deserves.
