We’re Alive: A Story of Survival, the Second Season

“We’re Alive is a modern rendition of an old-school medium. Maintaining a style that is both retro and contemporary, the radio drama will give horror fans the campy, kitschy style they like, but it also provides a variety of characters and development to keep general audiences engaged…Despite not being able to see the action, the excitement and intensity is still sustained through score and sound design. In some ways, the lack of visuals to accompany the audio creates more suspense. The narrator controls how much the audience knows, slowly teasing out information. Accompanying the drama are sparse moments of comedic relief…Expressing a keen awareness of the zombie subgenre, many of the jokes come from familiar scenarios and tropes of zombie stories.” —Examiner.com

“An immersive listening experience. Sound effects come fast and furious, with well-orchestrated action sequences and chilling zombie roars that will haunt listeners’ dreams. Balancing the thrilling sound effects is the vast cast…[for] core characters make us care deeply about their trials and tribulations…Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.” —AudioFile
