Geoff Meed should be proud!

Geoff Meed did an amazing job with this screenplay. I thought his acting was excellent too! Wow! I think he should be really proud of what he and his team accomplished with this movie.

I personally enjoyed every minute of it. I actually preferred it over "I am Legend". Although the "legend" movie had a glossier, Hollywood feel to it, it lacked so much of the grit and fear factor that this movie had.

As a major horror-movie lover and great admirer of the earlier versions with Charlton Heston and Vincent Price, I truly feel this movie captured the story much better than I am Legend. At the very least, the "creatures" in "Legend" seemed largely computer generated and were no where near as fearce and frightening as those in this movie. I also loved the depth and dimension he brought to Mark's character.

Great job Geoff!!!! Can't wait to see what you'll be working on in the future!

Well, Geoff, you should have been happy with it!

Believe me, there are a lot of people who read through these postings who agree that you did a really superior job! As a mere, humble viewer, I can't even begin to imagine the tremendous undertaking of effort that goes into envisioning, creating, producing and ultimately presenting a movie of this sort. What impressed me the most was that the overall feel of the movie was so much more true to original story than the recent "I am Legend" release. I was horribly disappointed by that movie, but never disappointed by yours. I hope than many more people get a chance to see your wonderful movie. I am sure that those who understand the story and the movies' histories will appreciate the quality of your work, without question!

By the way, your character was so mean! You scared the heck out of me! That scene when you propped your dead partner up next to you in the van really gave me the creeps! I keep thinking about it. Was that your idea? It's touches like those that make the movie unforgettable!

Lastly, I must tell you how impressed I am that you have taken the time to read through the IMDB postings and respond to your fans. That is pretty special!

Best of luck with your future efforts! We'll be rooting for you!
