GB 2010. Vertigo Films. 95m.

A photographer escorts his boss's daughter from Mexico across the border into the US, but they are perilously forced to travel through the Infected Zone where alien creatures have invaded.
Persuasive low budget sci-fi road movie (with some nods to Apocalypse Now) with an equally soft-played romance, lacking any major frissons, but instead tellingly made in documentary-like fashion.

Written, Directed, Photographed and Visual Effects by: Gareth Edwards.
Producer: Allen Niblo, James Richardson.
Starring: Scoot McNairy, Whitney Able, and others.
Music: John Hopkins.
Editing: Colin Goudie.

The director is from Nuneaton, or as the Coventry Telegraph called him, "The Nuneaton Spielberg"! ...so he's been in the local press a lot recently.
We might see this film one day, but I know a couple of people that thought it was very poor. To be fair though, the lad only had a tiny budget for his film.
