| 2021 - 5 years after the outbreak of a mysterious virus that turned humans into bloodthirsty, undead beasts much of the world’s population has been decimated. When governments were unable to keep the disease at bay, the Contagion Special Unit was formed with the toughest soldiers and best specialists to fight the infected. Because of the rapidly decreasing number of soldiers, a popular online video game Dead Trigger that mirrors the terrifying events was created. The best efforts of the gamers are monitored by the CSU who recruit the highest rated zombie killers. The young recruits are called “Dead Triggers”. The movie follows a group of young recruits who must travel to the origin of the outbreak to find a missing team of scientists who were searching for a cure. | |

Trending Position
Absolutely terrible zombie-horror-action movie with horrible acting with none of the young actors possessing any on-screen chemistry, bad writing, amateurish direction (by two different directors, one coming in after the other left due to "creative differences") and the dye job they did on Lundgren' ... s hair was just ridiculous. Just awful.
