Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Review: 2019.406 (A Word for Authors)
Pro: If the goal of a horror story is to horrify, I think this fits the bill. The descriptions of what it takes to thaw out and clean up the child corpses is pretty horrifying.
Con: The epidemic that causes all this is a little far-fetched, but that pales compared to the idea that anyone would want to watch a show featuring animated corpses.
