Pontypool
Don't say it! The wrong word starts turning people into zombies in this lo-fi Canadian horror.
Director: Bruce McDonald
Overview
A snarky radio DJ in the remote Canadian town of Pontypool is not expecting an attack by a horde of zombified colleagues when he comes into work one night. Simultaneously produced as a film and a radio play, Pontypool is a fun take on the zombie trope, where words rather than bites infect people. And at its dark heart is a devilishly dry central performance by Stephen McHattie.
