Is it post apocalyptic? Does it have zombies? Monsters will be premiering at SXSW, and apparently the director Gareth Edwards did it on a microbudget and did all the effects himself. That's pretty amazing, but what sucks is there's not going to be any footage coming before it screens. So here's all we've got, enjoy.

Plot:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1470827/plotsummary

From the mouth of GE:
"GE: I’m just finishing the post production on my first film ‘Monsters,’ which I need to get much better at explaining in just one sentence. It’s kind of a monster movie, but set years after most monster movies end, when people aren’t running and screaming anymore, but life just goes on as normal with these ‘things’ in part of the world. We shot it all very guerrilla style in Central America. Apart from our two main characters, everyone else in it are real people just going about their real lives, with all the sci-fi elements being added in digitally afterwards. As a result I think we’ve created a very believable world with some really subtle performances. I can’t wait for it to be finished and start showing people… and not an Arial font in sight! Actually, maybe a few on some road signs here and there, but just for realism!"

Looks like a Fallout map, and looks good, we'll see in March.

It doesn't look too bad.
"...but crashed upon re-entry over Central America. Soon after, new life form began to appear and half of Mexico..."
Sorry but, Mexico is not Central America.
