  • society
  • where
  • those
  • cured
  • of
  • a
  • pernicious
  • virus
  • are
  • shunned
  • as
  • an
  • inferior
  • underclass,
  • a
  • troubled,
  • young
  • man
  • is
  • forced
  • to
  • confront
  • his
  • bigotry,
  • leading
  • to
  • a
  • situation
  • both
  • tragic
  • and
  • unimaginably
  • horrifying.Forklift
  • operator
  • Dave
  • Watson
  • harbours
  • a
  • common
  • prejudice
  • against
  • 'the

  • zombie
  • virus

  • his
  • outlook
  • on
  • life
  • (and

  • decision
  • that
  • threatens
  • to
  • destroy
  • his
  • relationship
  • with
  • Sandra
  • and
  • plunge
  • them
  • both
  • into
  • a
  • maelstrom
  • of
  • violence,
  • bloodshed,
  • and terror.
