BLOOD QUANTUM: a measure of the amount of indigenous blood in an individual, expressed as a fraction such as one-half or one-fourth. This amount is used to determine and prove the individual’s tribal belonging and legal rights.

During a zombie outbreak, a lone indigenous reservation discovers that its bloodline is immune to the infection, and so becomes a kind of refugee camp for outsiders (read: white people) from the plague.

But as is often the case in zombie fiction: people are worse than the creatures.

It’s a solidly clever spin on the genre, propped up by some brilliantly gruesome special effects and great cinematography.

If you’re an indie horror fan at all, this one should be on your must-watch list. It’s a little rough around the edges, but all the more charming for it.

Lots of gory fun. Recommended.
