Gerry Lane

  • This isn’t the end. Not even close. We’ve lost entire cities. We still don’t know how it started. We bought ourselves some time. But it’s given us a chance. Others have found a way to push back. If you can fight, fight. Help each other. Be prepared for anything. Our war has just begun.
  • Movement is life.

Jurgen Warmbrunn

  • Most people don't believe something can happen until it already has. That's not stupidity or weakness, that's just human nature.

Andrew Fassbach

  • Mother Nature is a serial killer. No one's better. More creative. Like all serial killers, she can't help but the urge to want to get caught. But what good are all those brilliant crimes if no one takes the credit? So she leaves crumbs. Now the hard part, while you spent decades in school, is seeing the crumbs for the clues they are. Sometimes the thing you thought was the most brutal aspect of the virus, turns out to be the chink in its armor. And she loves disguising her weaknesses as strengths. She's a bitch.

Captain Speke

  • Looks like we just woke the dead. In that respect, please turn off all pagers and cellphones.

  • I can't give it away, but Straczynski found a way to tie it all together. The last draft I read was amazing.

  • This whole thing started because I just wanted to do a film that my boys could see before they turned 18 — one that they would like, anyways. And they love a zombie.
