Featuring a post-screening Q&A with director Adam MacDonald.

Caught within the chaos of a zombie outbreak, suicidal teen Sloane (Olivia Holt, HEART EYES) and a small group of her classmates escape their suddenly apocalyptic hometown streets and barricade themselves in their high school. The 90’s period set THIS IS NOT A TEST packs an emotional gut punch to go along with the zombie guts, balancing affecting drama with the horror as director Adam MacDonald did so wonderfully in 2017’s PYEWACKET. Adapted from the popular YA novel by Courtney Summers and celebrating its World Premiere at Brooklyn Horror. —Joseph Hernandez
