Earth's population has become zombies. Survivor Renchard lives in an isolated house and monitors different channels on his computer hoping that he's not the last man on Earth. Soon he gets a communication from a woman who asks for his help as she's in a city crawling with zombies and can't get out. He declines but shortly afterwards two survivalists show up and insist that he help them rescue this woman - and by insist I mean they blow up his house and threaten to kill him.
There are two major problems with this movie, besides that it's an Asylum movie. First, the survivalists want this woman dead because she may have an antidote for the zombie plague. Well, if you want her dead, why are you rescuing her? She's stuck in a city full of zombies and can't get out. They'll get her eventually or she'll starve to death.
Second, it is a wonder that the zombies haven't killed her already since she appears to have no sense of self-preservation. She loudly argues with her rescuers, refuses to follow their directions, shouts while they are sneaking through the city, seems oblivious to the fact that they should travel as quietly and quickly as possible, and constantly puts them in harms way by giving away their location and attracting attention to herself. She's so annoying and stupid. She may as well have said, "Hey guys, thanks for coming to rescue me. Now the only way this is going to happen is if you do exactly as I say." Oh god, just leave her there and save yourself.
Also at one point Renchard states, "Drive fast. We have less than four hours to get out of the city." Seriously? The streets are clear. There is no traffic and for the most part there are no obstructions. So how big is this freakin' city? Of course, how fast they drive isn't as important as not running into large piles of dirt that can be used as a ramp to launch/crash your only vehicle to escape even though you could have just driven around it and avoided an accident - stupid woman. Definitely shouldn't have tried to rescue her.
