The young Londoner Sean is an ordinary person who has accomplished nothing. He lives with his friends Pete and Ed in a dilapidated and dirty house. One day, the city was occupied by a group of zombies, and the virus and panic spread rapidly throughout the city. Shaun dragged Ed, who was playing video games, to rescue his girlfriend and mother. When they joined together, they were surrounded by hordes of zombies. In the end, only Sean and Liz were left. When they were planning to fight with the zombies to die, their friends led the military and police to wipe out the zombies. The whole city returned to normal, and Sean resumed a peaceful and comfortable life.
The story is inspired by a set of scenes in the British drama "Space". The director Edgar White, screenwriter and starring actor Simon Page of "Space" came up with the idea of ​​making it into an independent zombie film and started to work together Write the script. The British humor and spoofs in the film may not be fully understood as a foreigner, but the naughty funny and scattered horror can be experienced by the audience.
The film starts from the daily life of small town residents, supermarkets, stations, etc., showing the boring life of people in modern society. Although they are not zombies in appearance, they are like walking corpses. After a series of bizarre encounters, everything returned to peace. Sean and the residents still lived as before. The difference was that his friend Ed, who continued to play the game of zombies in the basement warehouse, became a tether. It's just a zombie with chains. What a irony this is!

    Even if you are not bitten by a zombie, you will have a standardized and unnecessary job, a suite that you barely share with others, a roommate who is better than you and has a car but has a bad personality, and knows your old jokes since you were a child. The bad friend who drags down your life, asks you to improve all day long, and finally abandons your ex-girlfriend with cruel words—the daily life is like chewing wax. Living is like a walking dead, no different from a zombie. Shooting a zombie head with a collectible vinyl record will make you feel bad (you have to choose a film XD); even a shotgun and a bullet box can't aim at the head of a zombie, this is the real situation of a normal person encountering a zombie; it seems that as long as there is music , beer, video game consoles, snack cones and lovers, have the motivation to continue to survive in the post-apocalyptic world, a very creative cult zombie movie!
