THE WATCH is a excellent short, with brooding imagery, an ominous feel, and a reminder that once done, a deed cannot be undone.

A father and son journey seeking peace in their final days.
A totally different perspective on the undead. The story was very moving and still thoroughly entertaining. Loved it!

An excellent take on the zombie apocalypse...something different... Sad, and dark, yet poignant and touching. ...I love reading zombie apocalypses, and I do love reading something other than the standard formulas. For me, this is something new. And I loved it.
