Tooth and Nail

Directed by Mark Young1h 34m2007

In a post-apocalyptic world, a small group of survivors, who call themselves Foragers, plan to rebuild civilization from their headquarters in an empty hospital based in what is left of Philadelphia. But they're soon forced into a face-off war with the Rovers, another gang of survivors whom are a brutal gang of cannibals.

Our read: Tooth and Nail (2007) reads as a heavy, kinetic, grounded sci-fi · horror entry — extreme in intensity, mid-stakes in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
