Our take

Utilising its low budget to imaginative and effective ends, this apocalyptic triptych takes the ubiquitous influence of the mass media machine and forges a sharp blend of conspiracy thriller and straight-up horror. Fans of Romero, Carpenter and (especially) Cronenberg will most definitely approve.
