Summary

When the dead mysteriously rise and overwhelm civilization, four survivors—two SWAT team members, a pregnant woman, and a traffic reporter—flee to a suburban shopping mall seeking sanctuary. They barricade themselves inside and initially enjoy the relative safety and abundance of supplies, establishing a precarious refuge against the ever-growing zombie horde.
