[crowd booing]

don't worry about pops

right now we have to deal
with that body

before anyone finds out
that you k*lled him.

Holy sh*t, he's alive!

Cam: Hey!

[thud]

lauren: I show up with a guy
that I hit with my car

and they're gonna call
the police.

I'm on parole.

I am not going back to jail.

We need to get
the hell out of town.

Lauren, you could get a blood
infection and you could die.

What the hell's going on?!

[banging on door]

let me outta here!

[gasps]

[screaming]

if my g*n had been loaded
nicole wouldn't be dead!

Trey: Goodbye.

Paula! Help me!

Get off of my husband!

He's not the only one.

Jai: It's locked.

You have to open it
from the inside!

Get him outta here.

Jai: No!

You can kiss my saggy ass.

[expl*si*n]

trent, what the hell, man?

Where are you?

[sobbing]

we just let her die.

She was my patient.
I should have saved her.

Hey.

It was her choice.

Think about it.

If you only had a couple months
to live what would you choose?

Die slowly in pain or...

Save everyone you know
like a badass?

It was pretty badass, wasn't it?

I can only hope my death
is half as cool.

Where's the fire department?

Oh, no. I think I left
my phone in there.

Here, use mine.

It's dead.

Uh, there's a charger
in the car.

Ok.

Woah.

You are blowing up.

You got a message
from a guy named shawn.

He's wondering where you are.

Sorry, wondering where
the f*ck you are.

Uh, another from amy
and amy, amy...

sh*t!

Oh...

Lauren...

I need a ride.



[machines grinding]

what's the status of
our injured detective?

Last we checked he was
still under sedation,

but he's gonna start
asking questions.

Well, I can't have anyone
talking about that thing

until I find out what it is.

Just keep him under
for a few more hours.

If we keep sedating
him like this

we're gonna turn his brain
into mush.

I can live with that.

[bng

come on.

What the hell?

[panting]



Trent: Hey, kyle!

Julie!

Whew.

Kyle!

Julie!

Where are you guys?

What the hell is this?

Gross.

Yoo-hoo!

[music blaring in the distance]


oh yeah.

Where's the party at, b*tches?

[ringing]

we should be getting the hell
out of town right now.

I can't believe we're
doing this.

Argh!

It won't go through.

The tower's probably overloaded.

Service in this town is sh*t.

Who's your service provider?

Lauren, look, my fiancé,
her family, all our friends,

they're at the country club
right now.

I already saw one of those
things out there.

If there are more-if there are
more of them-

relax.

I'll get you there.

Woah, woah, hey, hey, pull over!

[tires screech]

jesus christ, cam,
what the sh*t?

Where are you going?

The police.

Somebody has to let them know
what's happening.

Get back in here!

Lauren, I'm going
into the police station.

It's the safest place
I could possibly be.

Ok, I'm hearing how privileged
that sounds,

just wanna let you know
I'm aware of it.

Lauren, look.

Please, please. I gotta get
to amy, alright?

Ok, ok.

[office phones ringing]

paula: Listen,
it's gonna be fine.

You've got this under control.

No, it's not under control.
I have 10 officers.

Ten officers because
you cut my budget!

[laughs]

I told you!

I told you this was
gonna happen!

You run an ugly,
divisive campaign

and you pit people against each
other and v*olence breaks out.

Ok, that is not what happened!

Then what did?

Who are you calling?

State police.

Get your hand off of my phone.

You call in the staties,

the situation is instantly
out of our hands.

I'm getting reports
of riots, as*ault,

a bombing at the g*dd*mn
nursing home.

It's like the end of the world
out there

and we don't even know
for sure what's going on!

Exactly why we need to take
a minute to figure it out.

It's zombies.

Cam, what're you doing here?

And what the hell happened
to you?

The dead.

They're coming back to life.

I came here to warn you.

I'm not lying, I swear.

[laughs]

you know what, gloria?
You go ahead.

You call those state troopers
and you let them know

we've got a real zombie problem
in mawinhaken.

Fine.

We'll wait 'til we know exactly
what we're dealing with here.

You're not gonna do anything?

We are doing something.
You let us handle it.

Cam, you want to make
yourself useful?

See if you can find
your old man.

We can use him at work.
It's a little busy.

[exhales]

trent!

Help!

Somebody, help!

Help me!

Come on.

Come on, come on, pick up.

Are you kidding me right now?
No service!

[bird squawking]

[gasps]

[screams]

it's the f*cking enfields.

What're you doing?
We're here, go.

What do I tell them?

Tell them the truth.

That I'm late to my wedding
because of zombies?

They'll think I'm crazy.

Who cares what they think?

Are you really worried
about that right now?

Look, no judgement,

but it's not the best sign
if you're more scared

of what's in there than you are
of what's out here.

My father-in-law is not
the most understanding person.

You of all people should...

Me of all people what?

Look, all I'm saying
is that uh, you know,

herb has treated me like a child
ever since... You know...

Oh, I'm sorry you
feel emasculated.

I went to prison!

Get out of my car!

Okay, look, you
should take these.

Kiss my ass.

They're antibiotics.
For the bite.

Take one every 12 hours
with food.



Come on, luke.
Where are you?

Oh!

[startled gasp]

jeez.

Trent, man, the enfields,
they're real!

What's an enfield?

From the story!

Forget your story!
We got bigger problems.

There's a bear here.

Oh, my god.



[snarling and growling]

jesus.

Hey!

Where the hell have you been?
You look like sh*t.

Look, I need to talk to amy.

No, what we need to do
is get you cleaned up.

If amy sees you like this
she's gonna have an aneurism.

She's already stress puked
twice today.

Shawn, listen.

What the hell's wrong with you?

Do you even wanna marry amy?

Yeah. Yeah, of course I do.

Then why are you
f*cking this up?

Goddammit, I don't have time
for this sh*t!

The whole town's overrun
with zombies!

Now you pull yourself together,
you little p*ssy.

You are about to marry
the most perfect girl alive

and you're acting like
a little beta bitch.

If you wanna back out of this
wedding be a man and do it.

Don't make up some
lame-ass story.

No, I-

no. I will not let anybody break
my best friend's heart

on her wedding day.

I swear. I swear I'm telling
the truth.

Put on the m*therf*cking tux
and get m*therf*cking married!

Hey!

[pounding on door]

shawn!

Open the door!

Not until you get dressed.

Hey.

I'm dressed!

You look like a homeless guy
going to prom.

Open the g*dd*mn door.

Sweetie, maybe this is a sign.

Maybe you and jai shouldn't be
getting married.

Dad, I'm not backing out.

I love him.

Plus I've been starving myself
for the last eight months

to fit into this dress.

There's no way we are calling
off this wedding!

Everything's cool, he's here.

- I took care of it.
- Thank you.

Jai, where have you been?

Okay, look. We have to get
everyone out of here.

What are you talking about?

The enfields, man, they came
out of the lake!

They're like, uh, dead
but not dead!

Did you tap the keg without me?

No! No, I'm not drunk!

I'm telling you,
they're zombies.

Zombies?

That's what you're going with?

Just say you don't wanna
marry me.

I'm serious.

I don't understand what
you're talking about, ok?

Do you hear yourself right now?

It was a bear that did this.

No, man. I swear.
I-I saw it with my own eyes.

Why are you doing this?

Our friends are laying
down there dead

and you are talking
about this bullshit!

Amy, please.

Alright, look.
You know me.

I'd never make anything
like this up.

I'm not that creative.

I love you.

I want to marry you.

But this is life and death,
and I need you to trust me here.

Uh... Jai, I...

[retching]

I'm gonna puke.

Amy, wait!

Don't get any on the dress!

Amy!

Amy!

Amy: Go away!

Shawn: Yeah, jai!
Go away!

[retching]

[office phones ringing]

I'm sure he's fine.

He does this.

Just checks out,
sometimes for a couple of days.

He's checked out even
when he's around.

He's been struggling
since your mom d*ed.

What about me?

Cam. You know
he loves you.

Does he?

He doesn't seem to give a sh*t
about me when he's around.

He doesn't want me here,

he doesn't want me
to go away to college.

What the hell does
he want from me?

It'll be ok.


Just... Stay here.



Man, where are you going?

I'm trying to find service, ok?

I'm... We gotta call the cops.

sh*t.

Luke: Man, where
are you going?!

What are you doing?

Shh.

[growling and snarling]

come on. Come on!

[growling and snarling]

mcdermott.

[groaning]

[panting]

oh, my god.

[sawing sounds]

mcdermott?

Those were f*cking zombies!

Yeah, I know.
That's what I told you.

What are we gonna do?

Ok, this is all your fault
because you told me that story.

What?

This is your fault.

What do we do now?

[growling and snarling]

man, what are you doing?

I'm cramping.

Are you kidding me?
Don't move.

[growling and snarling]

[g

You think they're gone?

[sniffing and snarling]

let's get outta here.

Lls of subject a and subject b
appear to be infected

with unknown virus post-contact
with host.

Note inclusion bodies
in nucleus.

Virus seems to restore
mitochondrial function

and repair cellular membranes

thereby reversing oncosis
and reanimating the dead cell.

Holy sh*t.

This thing is a cure for death.

Radio: -Perimeter check, over.
- Waiting on lab check.

What is it? I'm busy!

Are you there, over.
Answer me, hello?

- Waiting on lab check, over.
- Where are you? Check in.

[cocks g*n]

I got some questions.

And I'm assuming you're the one
with answers.

[gasps]

radio: Adam, we need you
for a perimeter check on
the southwest side.

We're doing a swap right now.

Please don't k*ll me.

I- I just work for the company.
I don't know anything.

Yeah?

This uh, this isn't about
the drilling, huh?

This is-this is about
that thing, isn't it?

Look, I-I have a family.
I have a daughter.

Please, please don't hurt me.

Cut the bullshit!

I saw you light rhodes up
out there.

You don't strike me as the uh,
beg-for-your-life type.

Alright.

What is it you wanna know,
detective?

That's better.

Why were you keeping me here?
Hmm?

I'm a cop.

People know I'm here,
they'd come looking for me.

Well, I would tell them
the truth.

That you d*ed when
the cave collapsed.

But now I am re-thinking
that decision.

Something about staring down
the barrel of a g*n

will make you do that.

[gasps]

easy.

Don't even think about it.

[fighting grunts]

don't do this.

I'll sh**t you.

[g*nsh*t]

[alarm wailing]

oh sh*t.

[alarm wailing]

[chuckles]

looks like someone knows
that you are out of your room.

You should have left
when you had the chance.

I thought I took your g*n.

Well, it appears he found
another one.

You are a police officer.
You're not gonna k*ll me.

You were gonna k*ll me.

Put your g*n down!

Mcdermott, you ok?

Not really, no.

But I'm glad to see you.

I said put it down!

sh**t her!

No, no, no, no!

Hey, don't-don't you dare!

Take her out.

Don't!

Take her out!

Don't!

[g*nsh*t]

jai: Amy!

[knocking]

amy, open the do!

[retching]

amy: Go...

[coughs]

away!

If you don't listen to me
we're all gonna die.

Christ.

None of this would be happening
if she'd have stayed with shawn.

That means a lot, herb.

I've always thought of you
as a father.

Oh, don't brown-nose, shawn.
You're better than that.

Yeah.

Really, herb?
It's our wedding day.

Yeah, I'll believe it
when I see it.

I am in control of my life
by the choices I make.

Guests are getting pretty
restless out there.

I am a powerful presence.

What a waste of 50,000 bucks.

I am calm and relaxed.

Herb.

Maybe you could go out there

and tell everybody we just need
a few more minutes.

I'll get amy out of there.

Don't worry.

[laughs]

we'll see about that, tiger.

[sighs]

[knocking]

amy.

[jazzy music playing]




[sighs]

what a sh*t show.



Give me four fingers of the
strongest thing you've got.



Don't be shy.

That's good.



[flash bulbs snapping]

[crashing sounds]

[screams]

[snarling and growling]

I can't raise any of my people
on the radio.

What? What're you
talking about?

5= where is everybody?

Tucker, come in.

Repeat.

Tucker, answer me.

[g*nshots]

[screaming]

tucker, what the hell
is going on out there?

[g*nshots]

oh god.

This is captain pike of the
mawinhaken police department.

We need troopers
here immediately.

As many as you can spare.

[ringing]

voicemail: Hey, it's luke.
Why aren't you texting me?

Luke, it's mom.

I um...

Paula: There's a bit of a
situation going on in town here

and I uh, I just wanna make sure
that you're safe.

[snarling and growling]

sorry.

[growling and snarling]

look, I'm just gonna say it.
This sh*t's messed up.

Hey, do you think that guy's
mad that I hit him with a stick?

I don't think he took
it personally.

We gotta keep moving.

My car is on the other side
of these trees.

What? No, no, no.
I'ma stay here.

I'ma stay right here.

No, we can do this.

We have to.

Let's go.

[snarling and growling]

we're not gonna make it, man.

Yes, we are.

Trent. Trent, man,
we need to stick together.

I just wanna go home.

We will, you just need
to calm down.

f*ck this.

Trent!
