One of the better Netflix original films, largely due to presence of Martin Freeman. So often in zombie films the hero turns into a zombie-slaying badass, but Freeman plays an ordinary man caught in an extraordinary situation. He isn't a fighter, he can't handle a gun but he is determined to save his infant daughter even as he himself faces eminent death. I highly recommend watching the original short film this was based on, but as a feature length, it still works and has a message behind it.
