LOGLINE:
Following a mysterious plane crash, a group of misfits working nightshift QA at a videogame publisher are faced
with a military tactical strike, flesh eating zombies and quite possibly the end of the world.

 

When a faulty batch of military `Instant Human 8-Intragenome Revival Serum¡¯ (IHRS1093) is administered, instead of reviving the soldiers, nothing happens. With the most sincere of remorse, the soldiers are dressed and flown home under the watchful eye of CAPTAIN JUSTIN TURNER, also wounded in the field and given the serum as well. Before takeoff, Capt. Turner starts to feel strange. Hours later, while airborne, the bodies reanimate into flesh and brain-hungry yet intelligent living dead. Capt. Turner can¡¯t stop them alone. The pilot and co-pilot are overcome, and the plane crashes¡­
CAPTAIN JESSICA TURNER discovers a military cover up involving cutting edge nanotechnology being tested on soldiers on the front line. She¡¯s more horrified to find out her husband¡¯s battalion is among the guinea pigs. Hearing of the downed plane, she storms in to take command of the area and re claim her husband¡¯s remains. Unfortunately, she is not the only one who knows of her husband¡¯s fate, and those `others¡¯ have quite a different idea of what should be done with the soldiers¡¯ bodies.

The Night Crew QA of `Lectrovision Publishing is just beginning their Friday night shift. Slightly bitter for not being invited to the annual Holiday party, being separated into `multi¡¯ and `single¡¯ playing testing, and walking on eggshells knowing that layoffs are just around the corner (quite possibly only minutes away), the game testers try to make the best of a bad situation. During a regularly scheduled break, a plane crashes in the airport just behind the nearly-holiday-abandoned `Lectrovision building.

As the shift continues, strange things begin to happen. Co-workers disappear, the computers shut down and strange creatures dressed as soldiers are craving their brains!

REILEY O¡¯MALLEY, ZAK CHUA, SHEP WASHINGTON, (struggling actress, IT guy, ex-ROTC) and the rest of the geeks and gaming crew are forced to band together and use their knowledge of computers, video games, military strategy, zombie movies and martial arts to save their fellow testers from the flesh eating fiends. Time is running out. Through the ingeniousness of the gamers and geeks, the resources of Pringles Potato Chips, Red Bull, and other basic gamer needs, they are able to build a wireless antenna, rewire the surveillance system, and tget the computer up and running. Things seem to be quiet, but the antenna has also tapped into secure military frequencies. The government has called a tactical air strike to take down the `infested¡¯ area. With only minutes to spare, the gamers have to retrieve their friends from another building, round up all stragglers, and get them into the secure basement of the `Lectrovision building. It seems easy enough, but hey will be fighting the living dead, a forced military takeover, and each other. Will the gamers be able to reach their friends before it¡¯s too late?
