I’ll Take Your Dead balances scares with an affecting story between father and daughter, but more importantly it marks director Chad Archibald and writer Jayme Laforest as a creative team to watch.
Rob Grant's finger is certainly on the pulse of gore hounds everywhere with Alive, a grisly and puzzling horror that turns the survival sub genre on its head.
Well written, enthusiastically acted, and always gripping. It's just a shame it peaks halfway through and slowly descends into a more silly, albeit fun affair.
