Giles Aspen plays Mark, a college student who is attacked and bitten by a young woman. She turns out to be a zombie and Mark is now infected with the same virus. He decides to isolate himself from everyone he knows (including his girlfriend Sarah) and study his strange condition scientifically. As his hunger for human flesh grows and his body deteriorates, Mark realizes that the only way to stay sane is to document every horrifying day.

Finally, a zombie flick for zombies, by zombies. This is a small budgeted but adventurous production. Andrew Parkinson does a fair job building suspense as we watch Mark's deterioration. By keeping the running time under 90 minutes, I, Zombie barely avoids becoming too bogged down in repetitive scenes or too much introspection (trust me, there's enough of both already). The gore effects are excellent although not as bountiful as they could be. If you see only one zombie masturbation scene in your lifetime, let it be the one herein.

I, Zombie definitely has its faults. The loneliness motif is heavy-handed and there is some overacting on Giles Apsen's part. Unfortunately, the music is a silly blend of keyboards and acoustic guitars. The pacing could have been handled better so this may be a tough one for some to sit through.

The film doesn't illicit multiple viewings but it is a must see for zombie movie fanatics. Don't expect mayhem anywhere near the level of Dawn Of The Dead or any other zombie flick for that matter. This is a very promising debut and an interesting shocker despite its relaxed pace.
