Got this on dvd today, and watched it tonight.
It is a low budget film, but quite well made, and is an interesting film to watch.
Watching it I thought that what was outside was closer to the infected in 28 Days Later, than actual undead, but it is just a slightly different take on the undead.

The Dead Outside (2009) is described in review quotes on the sleeve as “a seriously creepy zombie apocalypse” and “a side tale to 28 Days Later”, both of which are a bit cheeky and misleading. It’s a low, low budget post-apocalyptic character piece filmed in Dumfries and Galloway. In the wake of a pandemic that [...]

Scottish cinema is not all kilts and drugs, and you’ll find that outside of Scottish Screen films actually get made that aren’t cliched, appeal to the current film audiences, and are really good. One Day Removals. for example, or a horror film I saw at the Edinburgh International Film Festival this year, the excellent The [...]
The Dead Outside is the first feature film from Kerry Anne Mullaney and Kris R. Bird’s Mothcatcher Films and features debut performances from Alton Milne (Daniel) and the then 16 year old Sandra Louise Douglas (April).
Set in the Highlands of Scotland (although filmed in the Borders) Mullaney and Bird tell an intimate tale of two [...]
Another twist on the zombie genre – a neurological pandemic has swept the United Kingdom, but those with the infection don’t die immediately, becoming increasingly incoherent, unstable and violent. The infection mutated, went airborne and the government’s so-called vaccine only slowed down the symptoms. The result: the infectious period was extended and the disease spread [...]

If I’m being honest my hopes for the horror film The Dead Outside were low. Although Scottish film is seeing a bit of a rise in quality and intelligence of late, this did sound like a it had a very low budget and it was also horror, and we all know that whatever country a [...]

Come see The Dead Outside expecting buckets of blood and non-stop zombie action, and you will be disappointed. The Dead Outside is more the zombie-film equivalent of listening to your favorite Oval LP, which turns out to be not at all a bad thing.
The first feature from music video director Kerry Anne Mullaney exists in world bleaker and farther north than 28 Days Later, and a little deeper inside the art house. The director makes a benefit of the lack of finance, with gritty visuals and an excellent performance from Sandra Louise Douglas (in her first role), as [...]
Mothcatcher has moved from the city of Edinburgh and is now situated in the picturesque area of New Abbey in the Dumfries and Galloway region of Scotland. The move will allow Mothcatcher to expand its Production, Facilitation & Post-Production facilities, and uniquely positions the company near some of the best scenery and natural resources [...]
First time director Kerry Anne Mullaney gets up close and personal in this virus plagued run through the Scottish Highlands. Made for a pittance the story focuses more on the characters Daniel, April, and Kate rather than the airborne disease. Also, light on action, until the climax, “The Dead Outside,” becomes re-watchable as paranoia turns [...]
Scottish director Kerry Ann Mullaney premieres her zombie feature The Dead Outside in the United States at the Another Hole In The Head Film Festival in San Francisco this upcoming week!
