| New Australian zombie flick. Damn good so far. |

Wasn't there a youtube short that had the same basic story line?
ETA: Found it. Oddly enough it's called Cargo as well.

Here's a little story about Tienanmen Square
The people rose up and said "Life ain't fair."
Now they're sweating in a shop making iPhones and
You stand in front of tanks, the tanks are gonna win!

| I thought it was pretty good but man if that ever happens I am prepped to survive those slow walkers. Heck, a sword would come in handy. The main characters were not but hey its in Australia where guns aren't allowed. |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gryenlQKTbEThe guys who wrote and directed Cargo for Netflix were the same guys who wrote and directed the 2013 Cargo short film; which you linked above. |
| It seemed like an interesting movie to me. The short film years ago was stupid but a interesting concept. This was done with more thought and the infected were a little more creepy with that hibernation thing they do. I hated the main characters but found myself hooked on the story to see what happens next. It had a couple of interesting plot twists as well. Overall I would say to check it out. |
