About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an infected-apocalypse story with a talk-first angle and a few new ideas, somewhat in the vein of Day of the Dead; Not for you if you need nonstop scares, heavy gore, or tight plotting.
Pros: fresh genre twist; some strong performances; engaging mid-movie hook | Cons: shaky script logic; uneven pacing; limited locations feel
