Herd

About This Movie

Herd (2023) is one of those films that really leans into the tension of the apocalypse. It has this gritty atmosphere where the lines between human and monster blur—zombies, sure, but the real horror stems from the people fighting for control. The pacing is relentless but not exhausting; you feel every moment of desperation. Practical effects are well done, with some gnarly zombie make-up that doesn’t shy away from the grotesque. The performances pull you in—especially the lead, who brings a raw edge to her character's struggle against her past. It’s not just about survival; it’s about the choices we make when pushed to the brink. Kind of a harrowing look at humanity, if you ask me.
