          Summary: A darkly satiric horror film that takes an acid look at the current state of the news media while a mysterious plague is bringing the dead back to life. A small group of news reporters and their military escort set out to tell the truth about what's happening in the world, despite the government's efforts to take control of the media.


          Overall: So I ended up watching on pure accident a few films, all by or with Trent Haaga and it turned into a Haaga weekend. This was the 2nd film in my viewing trilogy.

          I enjoyed the film and especially the appearance by William DeCoff. He’s done a lot of good work and always a very convincing actor in his roles. Here we have zombies and the media’s attempts to share the truth with the public and all the issues they are having at getting the information released. It can be slow at time but I was really liking the unique takes the film had on the media. Is it about truth or just really airing what is best for the government and the big corporations…you decide?


          Comparison: Broadcast News meets Night of the Living Dead
