What I love about UNTIL THE END is that it’s a zombie story told in a way I've never seen it done. It goes deep — moving, sad, funny, and ultimately violently badass.
It’s the perfect short film in that it’s contained and character-driven but builds around a big, awful choice and all the emotions that spill out of that. Spite, humor, love, affection, fear, and death.
