Day Zero (Short Film) Short Film 3.5 stars☆☆☆☆☆

18th January 2019 by Sarah 1 Comment

Stephen Nagel’s short film, Day Zero, was made with zero budget – achieved by shooting on mobile phones, pulling in actor friends to perform, and borrowing props wherever he could.

You Have Been Chosen (Short Film) Short Film 4 stars☆☆☆☆☆

30th November 2018 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Imagine an app that makes all your decisions for you, and you don’t even have to ask it anything. It just… knows. The best sci fi is tantalisingly close to a sort of reality, and You Have Been Chosen certainly fits the bill. It’s both frightening and highly desirable.
