Watch The Lost Tape: Andy's Terrifying Last Days Revealed For Free

I love this movie so much

Good concept, poorly executed.

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

"The Lost Tape: Andy's Terrifying Last Days Revealed" is a 16-minute live action short from 2004 and this one's closely connected to the popular "Dawn of the Dead" as we find out a bit more about one of the minor characters from one of Zack Snyder's better received films. It's all about the found footage component here, so the camera is static being put up by the title character, which means no great camera work, but still a convincing film overall. And that is pretty much 100% thanks to lead actor Bruce Bohne who carries this convincingly as a one-man show from start to finish. The longer it went, the more enjoyable it gets. The situational comedy about the character of Andy lets you forget at times how much of a tragic story this little film actually is. I guess we can be lucky that we don't have to live during the same scenario like Andy overall, regardless of broken our own world is. But takes it too far perhaps. Back to this one here: From what I saw, I'd probably also watch a full feature film about the character. The lead performance was top-notch and the contrast between the scenes in the past and in the now was handled pretty well. Overall, this short film is easy to enjoy, even if you haven't seen the big blockbuster movie from which this is a little spin-off like in my case. The title spoiler isn't a problem either as it is much more about the "how" and "why" than about the "if". I give it a thumbs-up and recommend checking it out.

Andy says he tosses a Molotov at the zombies and not good thing. For one, it didn't do anything. He says it just burns for a while and leaves them all grilled and smelling like Jimmy Dean! Classical lines like this one just made my day on this short. Priceless.With this "found" tape footage , we can finally see how Andy last days really fared out. As he was slowly starving and losing his sanity and grip on reality during the zombie apocalypse.I'm so glad this was included in the "Dawn of the Dead" (2004) DVD Special Features. Because I always wondered how Andy was holding out at the gun shop. I had no idea how bad it was for him over there all alone. I thought he had ample food and drink but it was not till he wrote "Hungry" to Kenneth (Ving Rhames) that it became apparent how desperate the situation truly was for poor Andy.Excellent short film and kudos to actor Bruce Bohne in his incredible performance of the character Andy. Oh and by the way, I'm the one who put up Andy's whole dialog/speech in the Quote section of this film! It took me quite a while to type in but I did it! Enjoy! :)

Bruce Bohne was the perfect choice to play the gun salesman named Andy, who is pretty much alone in his gun shop fending off the zombies overwhelming the world in the film. This bit of footage is a pretty convincing way of showing how he struggles to survive and retain his sanity. I found it pretty funny that the only other thing he could really talk to was his fish. This was a good extra and I still enjoy watching it. I didn't give it a perfect 10 because of the fact that he drinks and swears. But whatever. This was still pretty good and I can't wait for a sequel to the actual film.9/10

ALL the extra "films" on the DVD for "Dawn of the Dead" are incredibly lame, with horrible production values and questionable acting. This one is the more unwatchable of the two (if such a thing is possible), because it points a camera at a not-particularly-talented actor and has him improv for like 40 minutes.It's not a comedy, it's not a drama, in fact it's not anything at all, it just happens to have the same actor who played a (non-speaking) role in the film. Is that supposed to entice me to watch? Ed Wood made better "films" than this one. This was just someone's bored afternoon that they tried to pass as a DVD extra so they could charge an extra ten bucks. Don't fall for it.Watch the movie, not the extras. Awful... and what's worse, boring. The backstory it purports to "explain" isn't even consistent with the movie. Or zombie lore. Or technology, since he uses a VHS tape in 2005.
