Barnaby's film rejects the default white gaze of so many horror films, choosing to tell a story through an unapologetically Indigenous lens.

Blood Quantum seamlessly balances two very different things; it's proudly and unambiguously political, while simultaneously being just a banger of genre film.

Filmmaker Jeff Barnaby is taking aim at colonization and the subjugation of native and indigenous peoples, and he's splattering those considerations with a hot burst of arterial blood.

Even though Blood Quantum was a solid swing at reviving them, zombies movies will have to stay dead for now.
