I Survived a Zombie Holocaust

...a perfect mix of horror and comedy ... takes all that is good about New Zealand comedy-horror and ups the ante.

– Phil Wheat, in a five star review on UK website Nerdly, 23 August 2014

..there's a high body count, plenty of guts and gore, but most importantly — genuine laughs ... the film works because of the genuinely well-written script and the comedic timing of the cast.

– Charlotte Stear, in a four star review on website Horror DNA, 23 August 2014

Zombie extras. We couldn't have made this film without you. Thank you from the bottom of our gory hearts.

– Closing credits thank you to the 550+ listed zombie extras

Attention everyone. I would like to say that I am very disappointed by your behaviour today. Now let me make one thing very clear: I will absolutely not tolerate cannibalism on my set; and if this disturbing trend continues, then I'm going to be forced to fire a lot of people. So I want you all to stop what you're doing right now...

– Unsympathetic director SMP (Andrew Laing) after zombies have taken over his film set

...Remember the chain of command ... every other person on this production is more important than you.

– Location manager Tane (Ben Baker) to Wesley (Harley Neville), his new runner on the set
