Storyline
Plot Summary |
The zombie apocalypse has hit Earth. Two personnel from a TV station and two policemen set off in a helicopter to find a safe place to hide out. Their search leads them to a shopping mall where they manage to find a place that, while not zombie-free, is quite secure. So far, so good. Written by grantss |

Did You Know?
Trivia | Tom Savini chose the gray color for the zombies' skin, since Night of the Living Dead (1968) was in B&W and the zombie skin-tone was not depicted. He later said it was a mistake, because many of them ended up looking quite blue on film. See more » |
Goofs | When Roger runs out of a truck and back toward the mall, one particular zombie in a red-and-black striped shirt gets out of character and decides to tuck in his shirt. See more » |

Quotes |
Francine Parker:
They're still here. Stephen: They're after us. They know we're still in here. Peter: They're after the place. They don't know why; they just remember. Remember that they want to be in here. Francine Parker: What the hell are they? Peter: They're us, that's all. There's no more room in hell. Stephen: What? Peter: Something my granddaddy used to tell us. You know Macumba? Voodoo. Granddad was a priest in Trinidad. Used to tell us, "When there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk the Earth." See more » |
