Cheeb, you live in Australia so I'm sure you've heard of this zombie movie. This is a copy of my review from the contributers corner, that nobody seems to go to.

Brothers Michael and Peter Spierig from Australia have directed a kickasszombie/alien movie. Yes...I did say zombie/alien.You take 3 parts Evil Dead, 3 parts Dead Alive, throw in a dash of Night of the Living Dead and a sprinkle of Close Encounters and you got a recipe for a good time.It takes all of 3 minutes and before the title even comes on were into the gore. Special effects are handled very well, not over-done and quite effective. Their are a couple of slow spots but its not a long wait for something to happen that will have you smiling.And for a cast of pretty much all first timers, you would never know it.They all handle their parts very well. My biggest gripe was the ending.....it may have you scratching your head and thinking ..what the fuck.But overall its a fun ride. It may not be easy to find this one but if you do manage to get it and you like "Dead Alive" kinda mayhem...go for it.

Yeah newb, they're saying that if they got serious in their film- making they could be the next "?wachowskis?"
They were university students when they made it, and did it at their own film project.
Apparently they got quite a budget from the university.
They also said it was meant to have had the biggest special/digital effects budget ever for an aust. film.

Undead was pretty fun, I have a copy. Pretty steriotypical cast as per all australian films, but it was a bit of fun.
Didn't really understand the whole alien deal, but hey....got to see zombies get shot....
