See the films the platforms disagree about most →Nearly three decades after the rage virus decimated civilization, pockets of humanity attempt to rebuild. Isolated communities maintain a fragile existence, believing the infected have long since perished. A new generation, born after the outbreak, ventures beyond the safety of their walls, only to discover that the world is not as empty or as safe as they were led to believe. The original terror reawakens, forcing a desperate fight for survival against a threat more pervasive than anyone imagined.
