Another World<\/em> is Israel\u2019s first post apocalyptic action\/horror film. It’s directed by Eitan Reuven and produced by Reuven and Shlomi Aviner (see full crew listing here<\/a>). The Backbrain was privileged to see an extended scene, and it was classy, well filmed and very, very suspenseful indeed.<\/p>\n

In a post-apocalyptic near-future, a biological warfare program goes wrong, and turns most of humanity to mindless, murderous creatures, otherwise known as “Infected”. They have zombie eyes and other characteristics of the post-Romero species, except they’re of the fast kind, drawing on 28 Days Later…<\/em> rather than directly on more traditional zombie lore. So are they “real” zombies? Hard to tell at this point. We need to know if they’re fast and dead, or just fast and insane. I guess it will depend on whether or not anything less than full brain-splatter will stop them.<\/p>\n

Note: the above is a production shot, taken during the make-up process. Hence the lack of red eyes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Five uninfected characters are the focus of the film and they spend their time trying to survive constant attacks by the infected.<\/p>\n

Each one of them represents in some way a different aspect of human existence, a different world-view, but most important, a different moral view about the world and his\/her place in it:<\/p>\n
