Trivia

One of the few additions in the latest drafts of the script is the initial attack of the desert gang. Originally Alice would discover an abandoned TV station. She would watch old footage on the screens depicting the destruction of the world due to the global infection. Her narration would unfold at that point. When the script was rewritten this scene was dropped and it was substituted with the assault scene. The only remaining hint is the fact that Alice meets the deranged family in a decrepit TV station. Her narration was also rescheduled and it now appears after the title card.

User Reviews

Best of the movie series, but does not make it a good movie.

The storyline builds quite nicely in the 3rd installment and the addition of a few more known actresses and actors, helps move this film forward. Unfortunately the special effects are still very rudimentary.
