Film Discussion: Sundance Film Festival Edition - Didn't Die
Pod People, we went to a film festival! Well, kind of. As we did last year, we bought virtual Sundance Film Festival tickets and had the chance to catch Didn't Die, an apocalyptic zombie flick directed by Meera Menon. We discuss the film's obvious nods to George Romero, the different ways we as humans cope with tragedy, Indian representation in horror, how zombie movies just feel more real since the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, and more.
Didn't Die is currently on the film festival circuit, so it isn't available to stream at this time. We do discuss some of the plot, most of which can be surmised in trailers for the film, but we were conscious not to spoil some of the twists and surprises in the film. Listen at your own risk!
