Die Alone is one of those boutique films that comes along every now and again, where they get it right.
A decent helping of originality has gone into this film. Its script is well above average, as are the performances from the cast, in this rather touchingly quirky take on what is essentially a walking dead, style film.
I could find little to criticise, given this is clearly produced on a limited budget. What is lacks in dollars it makes up for in pure creativity.
In summary, Die Alone is original, creative, oddly touching and shows, yet again, how talent and innovation triumphs over big budgets, every single time. Most definitely worth a look.
