- Crazy creditsBecause of the small team, The cast & crew were credited over and over again, these were part of the '2 days later' competition rules. Director Shaun Robert Smith was credited 13 times. Although Dan Hawbrook and Paul Russon were credited along side Shaun Robert Smith for writing, this wasn't the case as they didn't have time to collaborate. Dan Hawbrook had a broken leg during production and Producer Paul Russon was busy with other tasks.

Awesome in so many ways
This is the second short release by rising star of horror directors. So stunning are his first two releases that it is easy to run out of superlatives to describe the work of Shaun R. Smith. This film, 'The Soldier', is a quazi remake / re-imagining of his earlier amateur attempts into the film-making forey. But when stood side by side it is easy to see the huge leaps forward he has made to professional standards. The Soldier concerns genetic testing by Nazis during the second world war on captured allied soldiers and the havoc that ensues when the experiments go wrong, resulting in death and mutilation for both waring factions. This short film is only a glimpse at a much larger project Mr. Smith has planned, which, for anyone who has viewed this mini masterpiece, will be eagerly anticipated. Forget Romero, Carpenter & Craven....... Shaun Robert Smith is the new Master of Horror!
