10 Future Cult Classic Movies You Need To See

10. One Cut Of The Dead

A super low budget zombie film from director Shin’ichiro Ueda, One Cut Of The Dead is one of those films where to talk about it too much would ruin it.

Made for the shoestring budget of around $25,000, this Japanese zombie comedy follows a small film crew find themselves attacked by a horde of zombies at an abandoned WWII facility while making a zombie movie of their own. After half an hour, though, things take an unexpected turn (but you’ll just need to watch it to find out what exactly it is).

Full of vibrant personality and a fun sense of humour that embraces its B-Movie aesthetic, this film has already earned the approval of critics and viewers lucky enough to have stumbled upon it. It will pull the rug from under your feet on more than one occasion, but by the end everything comes together in a very satisfying (and chaotic) way.

If you have seen it and want to see more, a short film titled One Cut Of The Dead Mission: Remote was made remotely while the crew were self-isolating and released on YouTube for our viewing pleasure.
