Editorial Reviews

Product Description
"We are the Army of Two!" So begins the video diary of Andre (Andre Keuck) and Cal (Calvin Robertson), two best friends and alienated high school students who have meticulously planned a "big-ass mission" that will shock and terrify their community. They have officially declared war, stockpiled their weapons, and set the day now, "let the countdown begin." Make no mistake: Zero Day is not a "Blair Witch" stunt. With his uncanny unprofessional cast and unflinching intimacy, director Ben Coccio’s award-winning first feature is a disturbingly authentic and harrowing look at a tragedy as unthinkable as today’s headlines.

5.0 out of 5 stars Surreal and exceptional, May 16, 2005

By	C. Moseley (Chengdu, China) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I wasn't sure what to expect before watching this, but by the end of the film I was stunned by how well it had been assembled and presented. The distinct lack of narration and guidance allow Andre and Calvin to lead the viewer through the communally warped and surreal psyche of a pair of ruthless and motivated teenage killers. Not since the original Blair Witch Project have I seen a film that has been successful in maintaining the illusion of being amateur film re-assembled by professionals, and this one being based on a tragic string of events that we're all aware of is particularly haunting and surreal. The two young actors do an exceptional job and are very believable. Scenes are wonderfully assembled in mounting tension and the film reaches a tremendous crescendo through which I could hardly blink. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Movie Concerning School Shootings, April 6, 2005

By	J "jeffm791610" (NY) - See all my reviews

I saw this movie when it came out in theaters and I have to say that it was the best movie concerning this subject that I have seen(it's definitely far better that "Home Room") and that the acting in this movie is so convincing that one would think that it was real and I especially liked the fact that the movie treated the two main characters as human beings as opposed to just hateful killing machines.

I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone who in intrested in this genre and I think that this movie should be REQUIRED viewing to anyone who wonders why school shootings occur ESPECIALLY the faculity at Columbine High School.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better Than Elephant, March 2, 2005

By	Robert Fitzgerald "wizglass" (CAPITOLA, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Zero day got the least attention of the Columbine style movies all
released around the same time, but as a reviting entertainment, this is a better film. Questions are not answered, but the
killers are treated as human beings and not Psycho Teens. great acting, and the shaky-cam works better here than in any other film I've seen.
