Pontypool (2008)
A horror film through dialogue.
Presentation:
The film is desaturated and takes place nearly entirely in a radio station while a zombie outbreak occurs. It's carried through dialogue and performances that are decently executed. The ending is memorable.
Conclusion:
If you wanted to study dialogue in film, you might want to catch this one. How to build suspense, conflict and story through script is a unique experience that you'll love or possible find a bore.
