Plot Synopsis:
Once again, Canada has become America's dumping ground, as a United States military vehicle is on route to unload pounds of a failed experimental chemical known only as ROUND 2. A problem arises when a near collision sends the vehicle fishtailing into a rural mailbox causing bottles of the fatal, yet life reviving substance to be strewn about the property. The occupants of the vehicle quickly assess the mess and collect all the spilled cargo.........or do they?
Back in a neighboring city, a group of friends huddle around a small table drinkin beers at a local pizzeria. Their continuous loitering has the restaurant owner furious with the punks and a peer who is employed by the man. A bet is made in a desperate attempt to rid the business of their presence. What seems to be a relatively harmless and amusing proposition turns into an extremely ugly situation for both parties.
Within four hours their lives are turned upside down when they fall witness to violent murders and the resurrection of those who where seemingly killed. Emotions run high when one member of the group is killed then turns into a zombie. They all agree that the madness is driven by hate and they must find answers. One third of the group splits from the pack to find a solution as the remaining friends tend to their decomposing buddy. Can two people with a penchant of hate for each other put their differences aside to stop the snowball of gore or will hate be the deciding factor in the eventual destruction of humanity?
...It's us VS. THE DEAD.
