Generic but well done Credited Review
The main problem I have with the screenplay is the timing and predictability of it. Zombies have been done (excuse the pun) to death.

    For the most part I liked this screenplay. It was well constructed in both form and structure. It was a little predictable in places and sort of followed the "Zombie Formula". I knew Jefferson would end up staying and be taking care of Tom and Mary. The whole Daisy relationship was a little predictable also. You practically gave it away when she talked about her long standing... read
