10. Await Further Instructions

Set on Christmas Day when a family wake up to discover a message on their TV screen: “stay indoors and await further instructions.” They also notice that their house is surrounded by a strange black substance. Paranoia and tension ooze through this film. It is a cynical piece of work. At times unsettling and creepy.
