Plot

Garth is a skilled zombie killer and video game aficionado who talks a big and crude game to mask his gentle side.

Rand is a handsome, cruel scientist who was hired by the government to find a cure for the raging zombie infection but instead is conducting horrendous experiments on the infected.

Sandra Lowe is a skilled computer hacker and Chase’s on-and-off girlfriend who joins him in his quest to battle the zombie-infested underground and stop General Lyons’ plan.

George Hancock is the courageous whistleblower who compels Chase and his team to enter a zombie-infested city on a rescue mission.

Jill is a news producer who joins Chase and his intrepid crew to infiltrate a secret laboratory and stop the carnage.

Susan Ingot is the CEO of Phenotrans, the manufacturer of Zombrex, the vaccine that keeps the zombie infection at bay.
