Less Than Human

I love the line “Are you coming, or what? You’ve got my car keys!” implying that he wouldn’t have come back for his coworker had he had his car keys on him. It just shows how much more humanity Don and Andy have, than the actual unaffected humans.

i love how the camera man thinks totally different from the reporter, and that he thinks that they are literally humans

A story about cured zombies post-outbreak is a really clever idea. I'd love to see more media explore this concept.

I love how open to interpretation there relationship is. They could be lovers, they could be friends, they could even be total strangers who found each other after the outbreak, but they love each other in a way that hurts when the other hurts. Very cool

These zombies are the most human humans I've seen in a while

"deep breathes exercises really release the spiritual toxins" breathes in cigarette smoke

Don and Andy show so much real compassion and empathy for eachother. It truly shows that they are truly still human. The reporter did not care that they were, he wanted a good story. Camera man on the other part seems to have a genuine interest in their story. These characters are so beautifully done, i would love to see them fleshed out more, and in a full length film.

andy is such a sweetheart, don is broken but still has a good heart and most importantly props to the cameraman decided stay and capture that beautiful moment

I love how the camera man didn't run away with the reporter. 😊

We gonna talk about the camera man? He is brave af

i like how realistic the interaction between them is

These zombies have a better relationship than a lot of humans do

I like how the camera man even has some personality even though he doesn't talk or show his face what so ever.

reporter: Oh man, what's that smell? :/ cameraman: Look, they have houseplants!

It’s horrible to see how even when they’re clearly just as human as everyone else, the man was willing to interpret the tiniest negative thing they do as proof they don’t belong in society, even though he likely wouldn’t have minded if they were humans acting like that. It’s even worse to realise that this prejudice is an actual thing right now in the real world being held against real groups of people.

I’ve loved this short for years but it definitely hits different after COVID. The zombies’ wants and emotions really hit home

Dude this guys organs are hanging out and he be SMOKING

The saddest part is that the news would probably cut out the part where they’re making up at the end and only show the “terrifying meltdown”

I love how the zombies are so realistic and act more like humans

I feel like this film might also represent how society treats depression. Some people describe depression as ''turning into zombies". The two miss their old lives and want to go back to the times where everything was fine. The recharter represents how society refuses to help those people suffering. Despite the zombies expressing mentally and emotionally human emotions they are still treated as horrible monsters leading to the recharter leaving. Just like how depressed people are still humans but society ignores their problems because they're ''different"
