Naturally, the perfect person to front a video about a gory, zombie-apocalypse drama was British comedy legend, John Cleese, who brought his unique talents to the project.

Within the first week of release, the video went viral with over one and a half million views, receiving an overwhelmingly positive reaction by fans and critics alike, including Time Magazine, Entertainment Weekly, LA Times, CNET, Mashable, Radio Times, NME, The Telegraph, Independent and many more.
