Dead Howling (2026) Movie Script
1
A highly contagious virus
has now spread across
multiple continents,
causing infected individuals
to exhibit extreme aggression
and savage,
animal-like behaviour.
The United States
is now reporting
more than 230,000 deaths.
In response,
governments worldwide
have implemented
strict Iockdowns,
sealing off entire cities
in a desperate attempt to
control the outbreak.
Emergency services
are overwhelmed
and military resources are
stretched to the breaking point.
The virus is moving faster
than anyone can keep up.
World leaders have
resorted to drastic actions,
targeted bombings
of infected zones
and shoot-on-sight orders
to contain the threat.
There is no vaccine. No cure.
No turning back.
What started as
a viral outbreak
has now become
a fight for survival,
and the edge of extinction.
Uncle Tony?
Yeah?
How much further
to the next town?
Not long.
About twenty minutes.
Ugh...
Fuckin' hell.
Fuck...
Hello?
Right, then.
I've messed up.
Oh, my God!
They're gonna get in!
- What do we do?
- See that building there?
You guys are going to make
a run for that building, OK?
- You're coming with us.
- You have to come with us. Please!
You have to look after
your sister, OK?
Listen to her. Whatever she
says, you do, OK? You follow.
Meg, remember what I told you.
Look after one another.
Make your way to the Sanctuary.
- No, you have to come
with, please!
Billy, you're going to
have to be a big boy now.
OK? I love you. You've got to
be strong for your sister, OK?
- Please, Tony!
- You watch her back, OK? - No!
When you see them
coming for me,
that's when you run
for the building, OK?
- Please, don't!
- I love you guys.
My god! Oh, my God!
Come on. Come on! Come on!
Come on! Come on!
- We need to help him.
- No, we need to go.
OK.
We need to go.
We need to go now.
Fuck!
Fuck!
Save the kids! The kids!
- They're coming! Move, move, move!
- Come on!
This way, this way!
Quick, quick, quick!
Quick, quick!
Agh!
Ah!
What the fuck?
Agh!
You OK?
Wh... What the fuck happened?
You fell and hit your head.
Where's our uncle?
Kiddo, I'm sorry.
He didn't make it.
He...
He did take out
a bunch of them, though.
Wait.
How did we get here?
In the restaurant, there was
something else in there, like...
...a giant bear or a monster.
Yep, well, it's gone now.
It's OK, you're... safe now.
But I saw it, it...
It saved you, and your brother.
- But why?
- Doesn't matter.
Does it?
We're out of food and
I'm starving, so I'm gonna...
...head out.
I need you two to stay here.
But it's dark outside.
We don't go out at night.
I do.
There's some water in
the cupboard, if you need it.
Don't drink all of it.
Don't look the front door.
I'll bolt it from the outside.
And don't touch the battery.
You'll be safe in here.
I'll be back as soon as I can.
My name's Carter.
Did you see the size
of that thing?
Yeah, I did.
- But where did it go?
- Nowhere.
- It's Carter.
- What?
I saw him change back.
He can...
somehow turn himself
into that...
wolf thing.
How's that even possible?
I don't trust him, Billy.
He saved us.
Yeah, but what for?
Billy, don't touch that.
Billy...
Is this Carter?
Yeah.
He had a family too.
Ohh!
Fuck, that's good.
Fuck!
Fuck!
Get off!
Fuck! Get off!
Come on!
That's cute. What are you
going to do with that?
Carve me an apple or something?
Oh, Billy, no, no, no.
What did I say? I said...
Don't touch
the batteries.
Thanks, mate.
What happened to you?
The usual.
No, I meant your back.
Oh. Well, that's a long story.
We've got all night.
Does anybody mind if I just...
freshen up?
Sure.
Sure.
Sure. Cool.
Billy?
Yes, I won't touch it.
Won't be a tick.
Hey, maybe just go
a little easier on him, yeah?
What? It was just a question.
Oh! Fuck me.
Really enjoying that.
What?
I burn a lot of calories
and tear through a ton
of t-shirts when I change.
By 'change' you mean
into that bear thing?
It's not a bear.
It's more of a wolf.
But how?
It's not the best
bedtime story.
Well, yeah, sure.
You asked for one.
Before the virus...
...you know...
I worked in animal research.
No, not that kind.
It was the good kind.
It was for a bio tech.
We were developing
a cutting-edge range of drugs
for canines, you know?
For dogs.
- You worked in a lab?
- Yeah.
I ran the lab.
If you believe it or not, I got
a PhD in Biological Science.
Hey, don't judge a book
by its cover.
Anyway...
We'd been working for over
a decade on this project.
It was a serum
derived from wolf blood
that, when given to
a terminally ill dog,
it'd restructure and boost
their immune system.
Make them healthy again.
And after years and years
of failed tests,
we had bugger all
to show for it.
So, one day
I kind of...
cheated.
I took all the information
I had
and I fed it into this AI model
that I'd created.
And out comes this brand-new
wolf serum variant.
And it works.
These old, sick dogs
on death's door...
became healthy,
happy mutts again.
The transformations
were incredible.
But time reveals all.
And there were two
major drawbacks.
One...
dogs that were given the serum
would attack and kill
anything that would move.
They became uncontrollable.
And two...
...they'd forget
a part of their nature.
They'd forget who they were.
But I knew I was close,
so I started experimenting with
another variant of the serum.
But it turned out to be far
more potent than the original.
What's going on here?
The dogs died.
Animals injected with it died
within a matter of minutes.
A month later,
we get word of a virus
raging throughout Europe,
killing everyone.
And there was
no biological information,
there was no time to prepare...
...and nothing
to fight back with.
The world as we know it
ceased to exist.
Everything was shut down.
Including our lab.
Well, what happened?
Well, everyone who's infected
with the virus
either dies...
...or turns.
But a tiny percent
of the population, like...
you two,
somehow dodges it.
But I had this wolf serum.
I thought, what if it works?
What if I could stop it?
What have I got to lose?
And?
I injected myself with it.
And I thought, at worst, it
could boost my immune system.
The serum affected me in a way
that I cannot explain.
It turns you into a...
...wo | f... man.
Yeah.
Fuck.
- Ugh...
- God, that's awful.
Yeah.
That's 'cause it is.
What, does that, like,
cancel out your alcohol?
Yeah.
Sure.
What do you want? You want...
breakfast?
What's on the menu?
Beans and tuna.
Or, today, there is a special
of tuna and beans.
Mm...
I'll take the first option.
Thanks.
Where were you headed?
-Hmm?
- In the car.
With your uncle.
What was the big plan?
We were going to the Sanctuary.
The Sanctuary?
Yeah. In Kalamunda, near Perth,
there's, like, a safe zone.
I didn't think there was
any safe zones.
Yeah, well, there is.
Sorry...
...but how did you
know about this?
Did you not
hear the transmission?
A transmission?
- Yeah.
- No.
There was one.
Huh!
What's so funny?
Oh, that's great.
I'm really sorry to have to be
the one to break this to you both.
But...
whatever your uncle believed in
whatever kind of bullshit
he was peddling
that's gone.
There is no Sanctuary.
There's no safety.
There's no hope.
There is you...
and you...
...and however you both choose
to survive this thing.
And that's it.
Yeah.
Great attitude.
Maybe if we had
your party trick
we'd be as I aid back as you are.
Transmission? Ridiculous.
Well, I can prove it,
so it doesn't matter, does it?
How?
- Do you have a radio?
- No. Waste of batteries.
Can use a car radio.
See?
That's FM. Try AM.
As I said.
Wait a minute.
Emergency broadcast.
Come to the Sanctuary
on Lord Street, Kalamunda.
We offer safety and security.
- Told you.
- A new beginning.
All welcome.
- What?
- Emergency broadcast...
And how do you know
it's still there?
Well, they're
still broadcasting.
Yeah, well, it's a bloody long
way and a dangerous trip
just to find out.
All of the roads into Perth
are completely blocked.
You'd have to drive down
some dirt tracks
- just to get even close.
- Emergency broadcast...
- How long would it take?
- Too long.
...Sanctuary,
on Lord Street, Kalamunda.
- A couple of days.
- ...safety and security.
That's if you can find petrol
on the way through.
All welcome.
- So you're not coming with us?
- No.
Stuff that. It's too risky.
We might not make it
without you.
- Just stay here.
- We offer safety and security.
Megan!
Megan, it is better to
stay put.
Yeah, so you can
go get drunk every night?
No, you...
You stay here, you live.
In this house, forever?
Fuck, you two are a nightmare.
I'm just try...
It'll take you about five days
to walk there.
More.
And that's assuming that you
don't get eaten on the way through,
because - newsflash, Megan -
there is a new type of undead
out there
and they are faster
and deadlier than the old ones.
One just about
ripped my face off last night.
You reckon you could
handle that, Billy? Hmm?
You two would never make it.
We'll take our chances.
Billy.
If we get our shit, can we go?
Yeah, sure.
Yeah, if that's what you want.
Perfect.
What's that? Look.
We should probably
pick up the pace.
No, I don't... I don't think
they've seen us.
We need to go, like, now.
Right now.
Keep going.
Run!
Get in!
Are you OK?
I'm fine.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Are we going to the Sanctuary?
Maybe.
Megan, let's just see
how far we get.
You've been bitten?
Shit, have I?
What...? How...?
Doesn't that turn you
into a zombie?
No, does it look like it?
If it did, though, I mean,
I wonder what you'd be called.
What I'd be called?
Yeah, well, you technically
wouldn't be a zombie, would you?
He'd be a womble!
Yeah, that's good.
Billy, can you hurry up, dude?
I'm almost done.
So, how do you think
all this started?
Who knows?
I reckon it was, like, all the
pesticides and stuff in our food.
Suppose you think
the Earth's flat as well?
What, are you saying it's not?
I don't know.
The fact it took out
so many people so quickly
just makes me think it...
was a bio-weapon of some sort.
Hmm.
Anyway, we've got to
get moving.
So, how many zombies
have you killed?
Hundreds.
What about you?
- Me?
- Yeah, how many zombies have you killed?
- Well, none.
- Billy?
None.
It was kind of our uncle's job.
Right.
Well, you're going to have to
do it at some point.
And probably
sooner than you think.
I've got an idea.
Well, come on.
Now, you need to know
how to kill these things.
- Both of you.
- So?
So, consider this...
a training exercise.
At a school?
Yes.
That is ironic.
Come on.
Shhh!
Just... wait here.
Let's go.
How do you know
if there'll be any in here?
I don't.
They just tend to go to
the places that they know.
If I was a zombie, this would
be the last place I'd go.
So...
Lesson number one.
The most efficient way
to kill them
is a direct strike
to the head, yeah?
Yeah, I mean,
we know that already.
But that would mean
getting close,
- so wouldn't axe be better?
- Yeah.
Yeah, you can use either.
But if you miss with an axe,
you're done.
Cool, huh?
Right.
Now try to stab me.
Come on. Stab me.
Pretend I'm a monster.
Yeah, well, that's not
hard to imagine, is it?
Come on. Stab me.
Carter, we're not really
comfortable doing that.
Do you want to end up
like your uncle, Billy?
- That's not going to work.
- Digesting inside of a zombie?
Come on, Megan,
they fucking ate him!
Stab me.
Fail. Hey?
Just stuck it in the guts
and now it's going to take
a chunk out of your neck.
Come on, Megan,
stab me!
Fail.
Higher, Megan, come on.
Try again. Let's go!
- Fail, Megan, come on.
- You're too tall!
Stab me, Megan. Come on.
Carter, I'm not a killer.
I'm not like you.
Zombies!
Come out, wherever you are!
What are you doing?
- Hey? There's fresh meat in here.
- Are you crazy?
I'm not going to be your
fucking babysitter, Megan.
If we're going to
find this place,
if we're going to get to
your Sanctuary
you've got to learn
how to kill these things.
'Cause your uncle...
...he fucking sucked at it.
Sorry.
No, no, no, it's...
It's good.
Yeah, you just killed
your first zombie.
Why risk this?
No, relax.
You'll be fine.
- What do I...
- Just remember...
Head.
Hard.
Fast
Come on. You got this, Megan.
OK.
Come on, Megan.
- Carter, I'm scared.
- You got it!
Oh!
Get her, Megan!
Come on, you bitch!
Ah!
Well done.
I've always hated gym.
Guys, behind you.
Oh! Fuck!
I got this.
Come here.
Fucking arsehole!
Enough.
Fuck you!
It's dead. It's dead.
It's dead. It's alright.
Billy.
Uncle Tony
gave his life for us.
I couldn't save him.
I couldn't do anything.
I couldn't save him.
Fuck.
Please.
Please, please, please, please!
- It's OK.
- Please.
It's OK.
Just wait here.
- You OK?
- Yeah.
Yeah, just please help.
Please help.
What happened, mate?
Help me. Our car's broken down.
Megan, I told you to
stay in the car.
Have you been bitten?
No.
- Megan, stop. - He needs our help.
- Just wait here.
Why are you bleeding?
What happened?
It's... It's not...
It's not my blood.
Please, you've got to help.
- Stay back.
- I didn't have to do anything.
- Carter!
Why are you bleeding?
I just... I cut it on
some glass.
Please, please.
Please, help me.
- You can come with us.
- No, he can't.
It's OK, mate.
It's OK.
Yeah? It's alright.
I'm going to take care of you.
It's alright.
It's OK.
You're going to be alright.
Carter! Oh, my God!
You just killed him!
What have you done?
It was him or us, Megan.
If they start coughing up
blood, they're infected.
Even if he had a bite,
there could have been a cure.
It's a bit late
for that, don't you think?
- He was about to turn.
- You didn't even hesitate.
Yeah? Consider that
lesson number two, Megan.
Check the colour
of their blood.
You're heartless.
Oh, God, Billy,
get back in the car.
Fuck!
- What happened?
- You don't know?
The last thing I remember
was jumping through a window.
It's OK. Let me help you.
- I'm Sandra.
- Megan!
Leave her alone!
- Have you been bitten?
- No, no, I haven't!
But my friend Cameron,
I think he has. He needs help.
It's OK. Yep, he needed help.
Where is he?
He was infected,
and he was turning,
so I took care of it.
Oh, Lord have mercy!
Where were you headed?
Sanctuary.
- Really?
- Fuck's sake.
Well, we're headed there.
You can come with us.
No, Megan,
it's not a good idea.
- You can't just fucking leave her here.
- Please.
Please.
Anyone want to tell me
about themselves?
Sure. Yeah, I'll bite.
In the back there,
you've got Billy.
He's a good kid.
Hi.
Up the front...
well, you've got Megan.
She's a little bit naive,
takes kindly to strangers.
Tends to talk...
...a lot.
So, you're family?
- Yeah.
- You could say that, but...
no.
How about you?
I met Cameron at church
a few days
after the first wave.
He was caring for his brother
full-time, I think, but...
couldn't get him out.
We heard the broadcasts.
We're just trying to get to
the Sanctuary
like everyone else, I guess.
I'm sorry about your friend.
Just wait here.
Righto, it's safe. Come on.
Come on, quick.
You need to use
your torch, yeah?
- Wait, hang on a second.
- Don't worry.
He's cleared out.
Righto, well...
...get comfy.
We're going to
stay here tonight.
Anyone play chess?
Yeah, that's the one thing
I'm good at.
- Yeah, I wouldn't go that far.
- I thrashed you last time.
Yeah, in your dreams, dude.
- Yeah, right.
- Now, now.
You OK?
Yeah. I'm fine.
Oh, God! What is this?
Why do you drink so much?
Can't a man relax?
I know you miss them.
Fuck you, then.
Good night, everyone.
Yeah, you too.
Billy.
OK, I got you.
Get some sleep.
Help me.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
It's me, it's me.
- It's me. I'm sorry.
- Jesus!
I'm sorry, I was just
filling up my water bottle.
- Fucking hell, Megan!
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Fuck.
- Carter, I'm really...
- Don't you...
I'm sorry.
- You OK?
- Yeah.
Good.
I saw your picture before.
Your daughter's really cute.
She was.
She is.
My uncle's still my uncle.
What's your wife's name?
Lily.
- What's your daughter's...
- Rose.
My daughter's name is Rose.
If I'd only
taken that serum earlier,
they'd both still be alive.
There's no way
you could've known that.
- I could've done something...
- No.
Don't you think
I feel the same?
If I'd somehow convinced
my uncle to stay at home,
he'd still be here?
It's not the same, Megan.
Carter, it's exactly the same.
We make choices on what
we think is right at the time.
That's what he did.
That's what you did.
You need to stop
blaming yourself.
I can't.
You have to.
At least for our sakes.
- And lay off the booze.
- No.
No, it helps.
How?
What, it helps you forget?
No, it helps me remember.
Well, I need to
go to the toilet.
And now I need to
go to the bathroom too.
Ah!
Fuck.
Scaredy cat.
Your torch please, Billy?
- Oh, my God!
- What?
Careful.
He undead?
I don't think so.
Must have had
a heart attack or something.
What a way to go.
Well...
As long as he stays put,
I don't care.
Think we use your toilet.
Good morning.
Did you... go to the shops?
Yeah.
Yeah, but it's been stripped
clean. There's nothing there.
Are you OK?
Yeah.
Why?
Right. Sorry.
We're, um...
We're gonna need a new car.
Why?
Well, do you know
where a petrol station is?
Are we going, like, now?
Yeah, just give me
a second to...
clean up.
Check the cars, someone.
Nope, it's locked.
Really?
People are lazy, Megan.
Why are we
stopping here?
We need food.
Yeah, but that's a gym, though.
Exactly.
Vending machines.
Consider that lesson three.
You two can stay in the car
with Sandra.
- You're going alone?
- Yeah.
You're just gonna slow me down.
Well, what if they come for us?
What about lesson number one?
Head.
Fast. Hard.
Otherwise just wait in the car.
Look the doors.
You'll be fine.
I'll be in and out, Megan.
Billy.
What? I'm just stretching
my legs. Jesus!
- What'd Uncle say?
- What?
That I'm in charge.
- So get in the car.
- It's too stuffy in there.
Oh, my God! Just get in.
Fuck's sakes!
Such a nice breeze.
Mm. Yeah, it's getting
a bit stuffy, actually.
Yeah, you don't say.
- He's taking his sweet time.
- Mm.
Whoa!
Fuck!
Come on.
Ah!
Oh, shit!
No!
No!
On her arm!
No, no!
- No!
- God!
Come on!
Fuck!
Holy Shit!
Fuck! Oh, my God.
| S it bad?
- Can we wash it?
- I don't know.
It's already too late.
Oh, sorry, Sandra. Fuck!
Don't be.
I've had a good run.
How long?
Billy, you need to watch her.
I need to go and find Carter.
God.
No, no, no! Fuck!
Ah!
- You OK?
- Yeah!
Fuck.
Lesson number four.
Always bring back-up.
Oh God. That was too close.
Thank you.
Well, I got energy bars.
Well, I got bad news.
Billy! Billy!
Billy, get away from her.
Show me.
Is she going to be alright?
I'm afraid not.
What if we, um,
cut off her arm?
- No, thank you very much.
- Doesn't work like that.
Blood pumps it through the
entire body in under a minute.
It's already in her brain.
Can't we give her
some of the wolf serum?
- What?
- No.
No, it doesn't work
when you're already infected.
- So what do we do?
- Well that's...
That's her choice.
You got any of
that whiskey left?
Sure.
- Keep it.
- Then what?
Sandra?
- You can leave me here.
- What?
- No! No.
- Fucking hell.
I'm going to
put my faith in God.
He can decide
what he wants to do with me.
Do you feel anything?
Mmm... Something's going on.
It's like a...
It's like a numbness
going through my body.
Come on.
Give me one last hug.
I won't bite you, I promise.
I'm sorry!
I'm really sorry.
Going to miss you, Sandra.
Get out of here.
- You sure?
- Yes.
Go.
Good luck.
It came out of nowhere.
- Huh?
- That zombie.
It just seemed to
creep up on us,
like it knew what it was doing.
What?
In the gym, it hunted me.
I think they're evolving.
Shit.
Carter,
who the fuck is that?
I don't know.
Welcome to Pinjarra.
I'm Corporal Reynolds.
- Sir?
- Ah...
- You OK?
- Sorry. Yeah.
Corporal Reynolds?
Yes, sir.
What the fuck's
going on right now?
Well, you've reached
a safe zone.
I didn't think there
were any safe zones.
Well, look, a small number of
the armed forces survived.
We're putting our country
back together.
Come on. Why don't you
see for yourselves?
My brother had one of these,
until he smashed it
to smithereens.
Oi, you guys. Just go inside
and help yourself
to any supplies, any food.
All yours.
- Thank you so much.
- No, my pleasure.
Thanks!
Is that a gun you got there?
Billy, get inside.
Welcome. I'm Major Butler.
Hi.
Holy shit!
We prefer to use
the term 'supplies'.
Um, we can take
Whatever you want.
Whatever we want.
Whatever we want?
Thank you.
No. Thank you.
- Oh...
- Billy, quick!
Hands behind your back.
All of you.
- Carter?
- That's a good boy.
Hey, you be gentle with him!
Jesus! Fuck off! Leave him!
- Why are you doing this?
- Look around you, mate.
Where do you think
we got the supplies from?
Fuck. You're not really
soldiers, are you?
No, we're not really soldiers.
There was an army barracks
just down the road,
- and they were all dead.
- Butler and Reynolds?
Well, you see, those are
our real names.
We had the tags made up.
- That was a nice touch, wasn't it?
- It was good.
- Go on! Get in. Get in there.
- Send him through.
- Mate!
- Don't you fucking touch her!
I'll tear you to pieces!
- Nah, Jimmy's a pussycat.
- Get down!
- Little pussycat.
- Billy!
Shhh!
You're quite pretty.
I think I'm gonna keep you.
Oh, fuckin'...
Nice and cosy, isn't it?
- Fucking parasite.
- Language.
Sorry, son.
You...
really need to
watch your mouth.
Otherwise...
Take a seat for me, handsome.
Oh, no...
No... No.
Billy...
Haven't you've
got beautiful eyes?
What are they, hazel?
Billy...
Gorgeous.
Come here.
Agh!
Don't you worry.
When you're gone,
I'll look after him.
No!
- Your turn.
- No!
Open, open, open, open.
That's a good boy.
Your mum would be so proud.
Listen, you two better
behave yourselves, alright?
Otherwise we do this
bone by bone.
Welcome to Pinjarra.
Agh, you fuck!
Don't touch me!
I'll do
whatever the fuck I want.
Huh.
Mm!
To our new friends.
A little whiskey? Wet the lips?
Fu...! Billy.
It's alright, Billy.
In the pocket.
So...
You know it's just me and Jimmy
here in this little town,
right?
Well...
I'm getting bored
and he's getting lonely.
- Aren't you, Jimmy?
- Yeah.
Yeah, I'm getting - lonely.
Worst of all,
neither of us can cook.
I can cook.
Oh!
Well, I haven't had
a spaghetti bolognese
in a long time.
It's my specialty.
That's very good.
That's very good.
What about my brother
and our friend?
I think you should probably
forget about them for now.
Yeah, I have a hunch...
...they won't be joining us
for dinner.
What do you mean?
Well, let's just say
I'll try and make it quick.
You never make it quick.
No, I don't.
Please!
Get off me!
- There you go.
- Please, please!
- Please!
- Let's just ease her tension a little bit.
No, please, please, please!
What the hell?
Jimmy!
You OK?
Oh, you're so fucked.
Hey.
You kids OK?
- Yeah.
- Sure?
Yeah.
Are you OK?
Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.
It's not mine.
I can't believe there's
people like that out there.
After all this
death and misery,
and those two bastards
were killing off survivors.
Yeah. Opportunist pricks.
Lesson number five.
You be very careful
who you trust.
I'm sorry.
It should never have happened.
And it won't.
Never again.
Lesson number six.
Be very grateful
for what you have.
Mmm!
A rich, ruby red
with aromas of dark berries
and a touch of spice.
That's funny,
I just taste wine.
We don't have to go anywhere.
We've got food, water,
supplies, showers.
We don't need to
go to the Sanctuary.
- You know?
- I mean, why not?
We made a promise.
To Uncle.
We need to at least try.
Yeah.
Yeah, I get that.
For Unc.
Cheers.
Oh God. Please,
no more baked beans.
There it is.
Looks like we're walking.
Mm.
OK, come on,
come on, come on, in.
It's not a good start.
Slow down.
OK.
God, I guess
we're taking the stairs.
Come on.
Shh.
OK.
What is this?
What the fuck?
Congratulations.
You made it here.
But if you're thinking.
Where is everybody?
The safety, the peace of mind,
the Sanctuary?"
Well, I'm sorry.
We tried.
We failed.
It isn't here.
I'm afraid, never really was.
Lying bastard.
We kept broadcasting
the message, though,
because I'll tell you
what is here -
something many others
have lost
But you must still have it.
You needed it to get here.
And that is hope.
You wanker!
You believed in the Sanctuary.
You believed in a way out.
And that can still happen.
You can make it happen.
Sir, we have to go.
I'm told I've got to
get out of here now,
so stay brave and go well.
I honestly wish you the best
and hope to see you,
somewhere
sometime soon.
Lying pig!
Hey. Hey!
- Why would they...
- It's alright.
Billy, stop!
Tell me.
Tell me you told me so.
Tell me!
No, Megan. Stop.
I owe you an apology.
I'm sorry.
An apology?
Hey!
Thank you.
Thank you for what?
Thank you for giving me
something to believe in.
Carter, look around you.
They fucking lied to us!
What... There's nothing here!
Not this.
Megan, never this.
It's you.
You got us here.
You gave me and Billy
something to cling on to.
He's right.
And we're fighting,
with purpose, with hope.
Listen...
When I lost Lin and Rose,
I thought that was it.
I thought it was over.
It doesn't have to be.
I want this to be over.
- I'm sorry.
- Megan...
I'll get her.
Hey! Stop!
Billy, can you just
give me a second, please?
No, it's alright.
Come on!
No, Billy, can you just stop,
please?
Carter!
Carter, please! Carter!
- The door!
- Help me, help me!
- Look the door!
- I've got it!
Move, move, move, move, move!
Jesus, they're the new dead!
Anything!
More, more, more, more, more!
We can't get out!
It's OK. We'll
barricade it so they can't get in.
Get the couch,
the couch!
Anything!
Can we, um,
climb out a window?
No, Billy,
it's four store ye high.
Get your shit, get your shit.
How did they know we're here?
Our blood. They can smell it.
Won't they just, like...
give up and go?
Oh, no. They'll wait.
For weeks.
Well...
How long's our food gonna last?
If we ration it?
Four days, if we're lucky.
If... If you change into
the wolf then maybe...
Oh, buddy, trust me,
I've thought about it, eh.
Not gonna work.
There's too many.
There's no way I could kill
them all before they get in.
So we're done?
Well...
You made it this far.
Yeah, a promise is a promise.
Lin and I were never big
on that stuff.
But I did make one once.
What?
Whatever the cost...
...fight.
Never wanted to
leave them alone that night.
The undead
had swarmed the city.
The serum was
a Hail Mary, but...
...we knew I had to try.
The virus didn't kill them.
The undead did.
I was too late.
You didn't have to
take us here.
Sorry you're stuck with us.
Oh, mate, it's OK.
Pretty sure
I'm the arsehole of the bunch.
Yeah, well, we weren't
gonna say anything, but...
You promise me something?
Whatever the cost...
...fight.
OK, so what are we thinking?
Something stupid.
You're gonna love this guy!
Come on!
Quickly, this way.
Quick!
Oh, God!
Billy, that way!
Carter! Ah!
Billy! Run! Billy!
- Is it bad? Is it bad?
- It's OK.
Uh...
Billy! Is it bad? Is it bad?
Where's Carter?
Carter! Come, please!
- I'm scared.
- It's OK. It's OK.
You're alright.
Come on.
Get up!
My pocket.
But this is the red one.
Yeah, Megan.
Isn't it lethal?
Whatever the cost.
What the fuck?
Check those.
Billy.
Check that one.
OK, we ready?
Carter will forever be
a part of our lives.
All we have now is hope.
Hope that there are
other survivors.
Hope for a better future.
A highly contagious virus
has now spread across
multiple continents,
causing infected individuals
to exhibit extreme aggression
and savage,
animal-like behaviour.
The United States
is now reporting
more than 230,000 deaths.
In response,
governments worldwide
have implemented
strict Iockdowns,
sealing off entire cities
in a desperate attempt to
control the outbreak.
Emergency services
are overwhelmed
and military resources are
stretched to the breaking point.
The virus is moving faster
than anyone can keep up.
World leaders have
resorted to drastic actions,
targeted bombings
of infected zones
and shoot-on-sight orders
to contain the threat.
There is no vaccine. No cure.
No turning back.
What started as
a viral outbreak
has now become
a fight for survival,
and the edge of extinction.
Uncle Tony?
Yeah?
How much further
to the next town?
Not long.
About twenty minutes.
Ugh...
Fuckin' hell.
Fuck...
Hello?
Right, then.
I've messed up.
Oh, my God!
They're gonna get in!
- What do we do?
- See that building there?
You guys are going to make
a run for that building, OK?
- You're coming with us.
- You have to come with us. Please!
You have to look after
your sister, OK?
Listen to her. Whatever she
says, you do, OK? You follow.
Meg, remember what I told you.
Look after one another.
Make your way to the Sanctuary.
- No, you have to come
with, please!
Billy, you're going to
have to be a big boy now.
OK? I love you. You've got to
be strong for your sister, OK?
- Please, Tony!
- You watch her back, OK? - No!
When you see them
coming for me,
that's when you run
for the building, OK?
- Please, don't!
- I love you guys.
My god! Oh, my God!
Come on. Come on! Come on!
Come on! Come on!
- We need to help him.
- No, we need to go.
OK.
We need to go.
We need to go now.
Fuck!
Fuck!
Save the kids! The kids!
- They're coming! Move, move, move!
- Come on!
This way, this way!
Quick, quick, quick!
Quick, quick!
Agh!
Ah!
What the fuck?
Agh!
You OK?
Wh... What the fuck happened?
You fell and hit your head.
Where's our uncle?
Kiddo, I'm sorry.
He didn't make it.
He...
He did take out
a bunch of them, though.
Wait.
How did we get here?
In the restaurant, there was
something else in there, like...
...a giant bear or a monster.
Yep, well, it's gone now.
It's OK, you're... safe now.
But I saw it, it...
It saved you, and your brother.
- But why?
- Doesn't matter.
Does it?
We're out of food and
I'm starving, so I'm gonna...
...head out.
I need you two to stay here.
But it's dark outside.
We don't go out at night.
I do.
There's some water in
the cupboard, if you need it.
Don't drink all of it.
Don't look the front door.
I'll bolt it from the outside.
And don't touch the battery.
You'll be safe in here.
I'll be back as soon as I can.
My name's Carter.
Did you see the size
of that thing?
Yeah, I did.
- But where did it go?
- Nowhere.
- It's Carter.
- What?
I saw him change back.
He can...
somehow turn himself
into that...
wolf thing.
How's that even possible?
I don't trust him, Billy.
He saved us.
Yeah, but what for?
Billy, don't touch that.
Billy...
Is this Carter?
Yeah.
He had a family too.
Ohh!
Fuck, that's good.
Fuck!
Fuck!
Get off!
Fuck! Get off!
Come on!
That's cute. What are you
going to do with that?
Carve me an apple or something?
Oh, Billy, no, no, no.
What did I say? I said...
Don't touch
the batteries.
Thanks, mate.
What happened to you?
The usual.
No, I meant your back.
Oh. Well, that's a long story.
We've got all night.
Does anybody mind if I just...
freshen up?
Sure.
Sure.
Sure. Cool.
Billy?
Yes, I won't touch it.
Won't be a tick.
Hey, maybe just go
a little easier on him, yeah?
What? It was just a question.
Oh! Fuck me.
Really enjoying that.
What?
I burn a lot of calories
and tear through a ton
of t-shirts when I change.
By 'change' you mean
into that bear thing?
It's not a bear.
It's more of a wolf.
But how?
It's not the best
bedtime story.
Well, yeah, sure.
You asked for one.
Before the virus...
...you know...
I worked in animal research.
No, not that kind.
It was the good kind.
It was for a bio tech.
We were developing
a cutting-edge range of drugs
for canines, you know?
For dogs.
- You worked in a lab?
- Yeah.
I ran the lab.
If you believe it or not, I got
a PhD in Biological Science.
Hey, don't judge a book
by its cover.
Anyway...
We'd been working for over
a decade on this project.
It was a serum
derived from wolf blood
that, when given to
a terminally ill dog,
it'd restructure and boost
their immune system.
Make them healthy again.
And after years and years
of failed tests,
we had bugger all
to show for it.
So, one day
I kind of...
cheated.
I took all the information
I had
and I fed it into this AI model
that I'd created.
And out comes this brand-new
wolf serum variant.
And it works.
These old, sick dogs
on death's door...
became healthy,
happy mutts again.
The transformations
were incredible.
But time reveals all.
And there were two
major drawbacks.
One...
dogs that were given the serum
would attack and kill
anything that would move.
They became uncontrollable.
And two...
...they'd forget
a part of their nature.
They'd forget who they were.
But I knew I was close,
so I started experimenting with
another variant of the serum.
But it turned out to be far
more potent than the original.
What's going on here?
The dogs died.
Animals injected with it died
within a matter of minutes.
A month later,
we get word of a virus
raging throughout Europe,
killing everyone.
And there was
no biological information,
there was no time to prepare...
...and nothing
to fight back with.
The world as we know it
ceased to exist.
Everything was shut down.
Including our lab.
Well, what happened?
Well, everyone who's infected
with the virus
either dies...
...or turns.
But a tiny percent
of the population, like...
you two,
somehow dodges it.
But I had this wolf serum.
I thought, what if it works?
What if I could stop it?
What have I got to lose?
And?
I injected myself with it.
And I thought, at worst, it
could boost my immune system.
The serum affected me in a way
that I cannot explain.
It turns you into a...
...wo | f... man.
Yeah.
Fuck.
- Ugh...
- God, that's awful.
Yeah.
That's 'cause it is.
What, does that, like,
cancel out your alcohol?
Yeah.
Sure.
What do you want? You want...
breakfast?
What's on the menu?
Beans and tuna.
Or, today, there is a special
of tuna and beans.
Mm...
I'll take the first option.
Thanks.
Where were you headed?
-Hmm?
- In the car.
With your uncle.
What was the big plan?
We were going to the Sanctuary.
The Sanctuary?
Yeah. In Kalamunda, near Perth,
there's, like, a safe zone.
I didn't think there was
any safe zones.
Yeah, well, there is.
Sorry...
...but how did you
know about this?
Did you not
hear the transmission?
A transmission?
- Yeah.
- No.
There was one.
Huh!
What's so funny?
Oh, that's great.
I'm really sorry to have to be
the one to break this to you both.
But...
whatever your uncle believed in
whatever kind of bullshit
he was peddling
that's gone.
There is no Sanctuary.
There's no safety.
There's no hope.
There is you...
and you...
...and however you both choose
to survive this thing.
And that's it.
Yeah.
Great attitude.
Maybe if we had
your party trick
we'd be as I aid back as you are.
Transmission? Ridiculous.
Well, I can prove it,
so it doesn't matter, does it?
How?
- Do you have a radio?
- No. Waste of batteries.
Can use a car radio.
See?
That's FM. Try AM.
As I said.
Wait a minute.
Emergency broadcast.
Come to the Sanctuary
on Lord Street, Kalamunda.
We offer safety and security.
- Told you.
- A new beginning.
All welcome.
- What?
- Emergency broadcast...
And how do you know
it's still there?
Well, they're
still broadcasting.
Yeah, well, it's a bloody long
way and a dangerous trip
just to find out.
All of the roads into Perth
are completely blocked.
You'd have to drive down
some dirt tracks
- just to get even close.
- Emergency broadcast...
- How long would it take?
- Too long.
...Sanctuary,
on Lord Street, Kalamunda.
- A couple of days.
- ...safety and security.
That's if you can find petrol
on the way through.
All welcome.
- So you're not coming with us?
- No.
Stuff that. It's too risky.
We might not make it
without you.
- Just stay here.
- We offer safety and security.
Megan!
Megan, it is better to
stay put.
Yeah, so you can
go get drunk every night?
No, you...
You stay here, you live.
In this house, forever?
Fuck, you two are a nightmare.
I'm just try...
It'll take you about five days
to walk there.
More.
And that's assuming that you
don't get eaten on the way through,
because - newsflash, Megan -
there is a new type of undead
out there
and they are faster
and deadlier than the old ones.
One just about
ripped my face off last night.
You reckon you could
handle that, Billy? Hmm?
You two would never make it.
We'll take our chances.
Billy.
If we get our shit, can we go?
Yeah, sure.
Yeah, if that's what you want.
Perfect.
What's that? Look.
We should probably
pick up the pace.
No, I don't... I don't think
they've seen us.
We need to go, like, now.
Right now.
Keep going.
Run!
Get in!
Are you OK?
I'm fine.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Are we going to the Sanctuary?
Maybe.
Megan, let's just see
how far we get.
You've been bitten?
Shit, have I?
What...? How...?
Doesn't that turn you
into a zombie?
No, does it look like it?
If it did, though, I mean,
I wonder what you'd be called.
What I'd be called?
Yeah, well, you technically
wouldn't be a zombie, would you?
He'd be a womble!
Yeah, that's good.
Billy, can you hurry up, dude?
I'm almost done.
So, how do you think
all this started?
Who knows?
I reckon it was, like, all the
pesticides and stuff in our food.
Suppose you think
the Earth's flat as well?
What, are you saying it's not?
I don't know.
The fact it took out
so many people so quickly
just makes me think it...
was a bio-weapon of some sort.
Hmm.
Anyway, we've got to
get moving.
So, how many zombies
have you killed?
Hundreds.
What about you?
- Me?
- Yeah, how many zombies have you killed?
- Well, none.
- Billy?
None.
It was kind of our uncle's job.
Right.
Well, you're going to have to
do it at some point.
And probably
sooner than you think.
I've got an idea.
Well, come on.
Now, you need to know
how to kill these things.
- Both of you.
- So?
So, consider this...
a training exercise.
At a school?
Yes.
That is ironic.
Come on.
Shhh!
Just... wait here.
Let's go.
How do you know
if there'll be any in here?
I don't.
They just tend to go to
the places that they know.
If I was a zombie, this would
be the last place I'd go.
So...
Lesson number one.
The most efficient way
to kill them
is a direct strike
to the head, yeah?
Yeah, I mean,
we know that already.
But that would mean
getting close,
- so wouldn't axe be better?
- Yeah.
Yeah, you can use either.
But if you miss with an axe,
you're done.
Cool, huh?
Right.
Now try to stab me.
Come on. Stab me.
Pretend I'm a monster.
Yeah, well, that's not
hard to imagine, is it?
Come on. Stab me.
Carter, we're not really
comfortable doing that.
Do you want to end up
like your uncle, Billy?
- That's not going to work.
- Digesting inside of a zombie?
Come on, Megan,
they fucking ate him!
Stab me.
Fail. Hey?
Just stuck it in the guts
and now it's going to take
a chunk out of your neck.
Come on, Megan,
stab me!
Fail.
Higher, Megan, come on.
Try again. Let's go!
- Fail, Megan, come on.
- You're too tall!
Stab me, Megan. Come on.
Carter, I'm not a killer.
I'm not like you.
Zombies!
Come out, wherever you are!
What are you doing?
- Hey? There's fresh meat in here.
- Are you crazy?
I'm not going to be your
fucking babysitter, Megan.
If we're going to
find this place,
if we're going to get to
your Sanctuary
you've got to learn
how to kill these things.
'Cause your uncle...
...he fucking sucked at it.
Sorry.
No, no, no, it's...
It's good.
Yeah, you just killed
your first zombie.
Why risk this?
No, relax.
You'll be fine.
- What do I...
- Just remember...
Head.
Hard.
Fast
Come on. You got this, Megan.
OK.
Come on, Megan.
- Carter, I'm scared.
- You got it!
Oh!
Get her, Megan!
Come on, you bitch!
Ah!
Well done.
I've always hated gym.
Guys, behind you.
Oh! Fuck!
I got this.
Come here.
Fucking arsehole!
Enough.
Fuck you!
It's dead. It's dead.
It's dead. It's alright.
Billy.
Uncle Tony
gave his life for us.
I couldn't save him.
I couldn't do anything.
I couldn't save him.
Fuck.
Please.
Please, please, please, please!
- It's OK.
- Please.
It's OK.
Just wait here.
- You OK?
- Yeah.
Yeah, just please help.
Please help.
What happened, mate?
Help me. Our car's broken down.
Megan, I told you to
stay in the car.
Have you been bitten?
No.
- Megan, stop. - He needs our help.
- Just wait here.
Why are you bleeding?
What happened?
It's... It's not...
It's not my blood.
Please, you've got to help.
- Stay back.
- I didn't have to do anything.
- Carter!
Why are you bleeding?
I just... I cut it on
some glass.
Please, please.
Please, help me.
- You can come with us.
- No, he can't.
It's OK, mate.
It's OK.
Yeah? It's alright.
I'm going to take care of you.
It's alright.
It's OK.
You're going to be alright.
Carter! Oh, my God!
You just killed him!
What have you done?
It was him or us, Megan.
If they start coughing up
blood, they're infected.
Even if he had a bite,
there could have been a cure.
It's a bit late
for that, don't you think?
- He was about to turn.
- You didn't even hesitate.
Yeah? Consider that
lesson number two, Megan.
Check the colour
of their blood.
You're heartless.
Oh, God, Billy,
get back in the car.
Fuck!
- What happened?
- You don't know?
The last thing I remember
was jumping through a window.
It's OK. Let me help you.
- I'm Sandra.
- Megan!
Leave her alone!
- Have you been bitten?
- No, no, I haven't!
But my friend Cameron,
I think he has. He needs help.
It's OK. Yep, he needed help.
Where is he?
He was infected,
and he was turning,
so I took care of it.
Oh, Lord have mercy!
Where were you headed?
Sanctuary.
- Really?
- Fuck's sake.
Well, we're headed there.
You can come with us.
No, Megan,
it's not a good idea.
- You can't just fucking leave her here.
- Please.
Please.
Anyone want to tell me
about themselves?
Sure. Yeah, I'll bite.
In the back there,
you've got Billy.
He's a good kid.
Hi.
Up the front...
well, you've got Megan.
She's a little bit naive,
takes kindly to strangers.
Tends to talk...
...a lot.
So, you're family?
- Yeah.
- You could say that, but...
no.
How about you?
I met Cameron at church
a few days
after the first wave.
He was caring for his brother
full-time, I think, but...
couldn't get him out.
We heard the broadcasts.
We're just trying to get to
the Sanctuary
like everyone else, I guess.
I'm sorry about your friend.
Just wait here.
Righto, it's safe. Come on.
Come on, quick.
You need to use
your torch, yeah?
- Wait, hang on a second.
- Don't worry.
He's cleared out.
Righto, well...
...get comfy.
We're going to
stay here tonight.
Anyone play chess?
Yeah, that's the one thing
I'm good at.
- Yeah, I wouldn't go that far.
- I thrashed you last time.
Yeah, in your dreams, dude.
- Yeah, right.
- Now, now.
You OK?
Yeah. I'm fine.
Oh, God! What is this?
Why do you drink so much?
Can't a man relax?
I know you miss them.
Fuck you, then.
Good night, everyone.
Yeah, you too.
Billy.
OK, I got you.
Get some sleep.
Help me.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
It's me, it's me.
- It's me. I'm sorry.
- Jesus!
I'm sorry, I was just
filling up my water bottle.
- Fucking hell, Megan!
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Fuck.
- Carter, I'm really...
- Don't you...
I'm sorry.
- You OK?
- Yeah.
Good.
I saw your picture before.
Your daughter's really cute.
She was.
She is.
My uncle's still my uncle.
What's your wife's name?
Lily.
- What's your daughter's...
- Rose.
My daughter's name is Rose.
If I'd only
taken that serum earlier,
they'd both still be alive.
There's no way
you could've known that.
- I could've done something...
- No.
Don't you think
I feel the same?
If I'd somehow convinced
my uncle to stay at home,
he'd still be here?
It's not the same, Megan.
Carter, it's exactly the same.
We make choices on what
we think is right at the time.
That's what he did.
That's what you did.
You need to stop
blaming yourself.
I can't.
You have to.
At least for our sakes.
- And lay off the booze.
- No.
No, it helps.
How?
What, it helps you forget?
No, it helps me remember.
Well, I need to
go to the toilet.
And now I need to
go to the bathroom too.
Ah!
Fuck.
Scaredy cat.
Your torch please, Billy?
- Oh, my God!
- What?
Careful.
He undead?
I don't think so.
Must have had
a heart attack or something.
What a way to go.
Well...
As long as he stays put,
I don't care.
Think we use your toilet.
Good morning.
Did you... go to the shops?
Yeah.
Yeah, but it's been stripped
clean. There's nothing there.
Are you OK?
Yeah.
Why?
Right. Sorry.
We're, um...
We're gonna need a new car.
Why?
Well, do you know
where a petrol station is?
Are we going, like, now?
Yeah, just give me
a second to...
clean up.
Check the cars, someone.
Nope, it's locked.
Really?
People are lazy, Megan.
Why are we
stopping here?
We need food.
Yeah, but that's a gym, though.
Exactly.
Vending machines.
Consider that lesson three.
You two can stay in the car
with Sandra.
- You're going alone?
- Yeah.
You're just gonna slow me down.
Well, what if they come for us?
What about lesson number one?
Head.
Fast. Hard.
Otherwise just wait in the car.
Look the doors.
You'll be fine.
I'll be in and out, Megan.
Billy.
What? I'm just stretching
my legs. Jesus!
- What'd Uncle say?
- What?
That I'm in charge.
- So get in the car.
- It's too stuffy in there.
Oh, my God! Just get in.
Fuck's sakes!
Such a nice breeze.
Mm. Yeah, it's getting
a bit stuffy, actually.
Yeah, you don't say.
- He's taking his sweet time.
- Mm.
Whoa!
Fuck!
Come on.
Ah!
Oh, shit!
No!
No!
On her arm!
No, no!
- No!
- God!
Come on!
Fuck!
Holy Shit!
Fuck! Oh, my God.
| S it bad?
- Can we wash it?
- I don't know.
It's already too late.
Oh, sorry, Sandra. Fuck!
Don't be.
I've had a good run.
How long?
Billy, you need to watch her.
I need to go and find Carter.
God.
No, no, no! Fuck!
Ah!
- You OK?
- Yeah!
Fuck.
Lesson number four.
Always bring back-up.
Oh God. That was too close.
Thank you.
Well, I got energy bars.
Well, I got bad news.
Billy! Billy!
Billy, get away from her.
Show me.
Is she going to be alright?
I'm afraid not.
What if we, um,
cut off her arm?
- No, thank you very much.
- Doesn't work like that.
Blood pumps it through the
entire body in under a minute.
It's already in her brain.
Can't we give her
some of the wolf serum?
- What?
- No.
No, it doesn't work
when you're already infected.
- So what do we do?
- Well that's...
That's her choice.
You got any of
that whiskey left?
Sure.
- Keep it.
- Then what?
Sandra?
- You can leave me here.
- What?
- No! No.
- Fucking hell.
I'm going to
put my faith in God.
He can decide
what he wants to do with me.
Do you feel anything?
Mmm... Something's going on.
It's like a...
It's like a numbness
going through my body.
Come on.
Give me one last hug.
I won't bite you, I promise.
I'm sorry!
I'm really sorry.
Going to miss you, Sandra.
Get out of here.
- You sure?
- Yes.
Go.
Good luck.
It came out of nowhere.
- Huh?
- That zombie.
It just seemed to
creep up on us,
like it knew what it was doing.
What?
In the gym, it hunted me.
I think they're evolving.
Shit.
Carter,
who the fuck is that?
I don't know.
Welcome to Pinjarra.
I'm Corporal Reynolds.
- Sir?
- Ah...
- You OK?
- Sorry. Yeah.
Corporal Reynolds?
Yes, sir.
What the fuck's
going on right now?
Well, you've reached
a safe zone.
I didn't think there
were any safe zones.
Well, look, a small number of
the armed forces survived.
We're putting our country
back together.
Come on. Why don't you
see for yourselves?
My brother had one of these,
until he smashed it
to smithereens.
Oi, you guys. Just go inside
and help yourself
to any supplies, any food.
All yours.
- Thank you so much.
- No, my pleasure.
Thanks!
Is that a gun you got there?
Billy, get inside.
Welcome. I'm Major Butler.
Hi.
Holy shit!
We prefer to use
the term 'supplies'.
Um, we can take
Whatever you want.
Whatever we want.
Whatever we want?
Thank you.
No. Thank you.
- Oh...
- Billy, quick!
Hands behind your back.
All of you.
- Carter?
- That's a good boy.
Hey, you be gentle with him!
Jesus! Fuck off! Leave him!
- Why are you doing this?
- Look around you, mate.
Where do you think
we got the supplies from?
Fuck. You're not really
soldiers, are you?
No, we're not really soldiers.
There was an army barracks
just down the road,
- and they were all dead.
- Butler and Reynolds?
Well, you see, those are
our real names.
We had the tags made up.
- That was a nice touch, wasn't it?
- It was good.
- Go on! Get in. Get in there.
- Send him through.
- Mate!
- Don't you fucking touch her!
I'll tear you to pieces!
- Nah, Jimmy's a pussycat.
- Get down!
- Little pussycat.
- Billy!
Shhh!
You're quite pretty.
I think I'm gonna keep you.
Oh, fuckin'...
Nice and cosy, isn't it?
- Fucking parasite.
- Language.
Sorry, son.
You...
really need to
watch your mouth.
Otherwise...
Take a seat for me, handsome.
Oh, no...
No... No.
Billy...
Haven't you've
got beautiful eyes?
What are they, hazel?
Billy...
Gorgeous.
Come here.
Agh!
Don't you worry.
When you're gone,
I'll look after him.
No!
- Your turn.
- No!
Open, open, open, open.
That's a good boy.
Your mum would be so proud.
Listen, you two better
behave yourselves, alright?
Otherwise we do this
bone by bone.
Welcome to Pinjarra.
Agh, you fuck!
Don't touch me!
I'll do
whatever the fuck I want.
Huh.
Mm!
To our new friends.
A little whiskey? Wet the lips?
Fu...! Billy.
It's alright, Billy.
In the pocket.
So...
You know it's just me and Jimmy
here in this little town,
right?
Well...
I'm getting bored
and he's getting lonely.
- Aren't you, Jimmy?
- Yeah.
Yeah, I'm getting - lonely.
Worst of all,
neither of us can cook.
I can cook.
Oh!
Well, I haven't had
a spaghetti bolognese
in a long time.
It's my specialty.
That's very good.
That's very good.
What about my brother
and our friend?
I think you should probably
forget about them for now.
Yeah, I have a hunch...
...they won't be joining us
for dinner.
What do you mean?
Well, let's just say
I'll try and make it quick.
You never make it quick.
No, I don't.
Please!
Get off me!
- There you go.
- Please, please!
- Please!
- Let's just ease her tension a little bit.
No, please, please, please!
What the hell?
Jimmy!
You OK?
Oh, you're so fucked.
Hey.
You kids OK?
- Yeah.
- Sure?
Yeah.
Are you OK?
Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.
It's not mine.
I can't believe there's
people like that out there.
After all this
death and misery,
and those two bastards
were killing off survivors.
Yeah. Opportunist pricks.
Lesson number five.
You be very careful
who you trust.
I'm sorry.
It should never have happened.
And it won't.
Never again.
Lesson number six.
Be very grateful
for what you have.
Mmm!
A rich, ruby red
with aromas of dark berries
and a touch of spice.
That's funny,
I just taste wine.
We don't have to go anywhere.
We've got food, water,
supplies, showers.
We don't need to
go to the Sanctuary.
- You know?
- I mean, why not?
We made a promise.
To Uncle.
We need to at least try.
Yeah.
Yeah, I get that.
For Unc.
Cheers.
Oh God. Please,
no more baked beans.
There it is.
Looks like we're walking.
Mm.
OK, come on,
come on, come on, in.
It's not a good start.
Slow down.
OK.
God, I guess
we're taking the stairs.
Come on.
Shh.
OK.
What is this?
What the fuck?
Congratulations.
You made it here.
But if you're thinking.
Where is everybody?
The safety, the peace of mind,
the Sanctuary?"
Well, I'm sorry.
We tried.
We failed.
It isn't here.
I'm afraid, never really was.
Lying bastard.
We kept broadcasting
the message, though,
because I'll tell you
what is here -
something many others
have lost
But you must still have it.
You needed it to get here.
And that is hope.
You wanker!
You believed in the Sanctuary.
You believed in a way out.
And that can still happen.
You can make it happen.
Sir, we have to go.
I'm told I've got to
get out of here now,
so stay brave and go well.
I honestly wish you the best
and hope to see you,
somewhere
sometime soon.
Lying pig!
Hey. Hey!
- Why would they...
- It's alright.
Billy, stop!
Tell me.
Tell me you told me so.
Tell me!
No, Megan. Stop.
I owe you an apology.
I'm sorry.
An apology?
Hey!
Thank you.
Thank you for what?
Thank you for giving me
something to believe in.
Carter, look around you.
They fucking lied to us!
What... There's nothing here!
Not this.
Megan, never this.
It's you.
You got us here.
You gave me and Billy
something to cling on to.
He's right.
And we're fighting,
with purpose, with hope.
Listen...
When I lost Lin and Rose,
I thought that was it.
I thought it was over.
It doesn't have to be.
I want this to be over.
- I'm sorry.
- Megan...
I'll get her.
Hey! Stop!
Billy, can you just
give me a second, please?
No, it's alright.
Come on!
No, Billy, can you just stop,
please?
Carter!
Carter, please! Carter!
- The door!
- Help me, help me!
- Look the door!
- I've got it!
Move, move, move, move, move!
Jesus, they're the new dead!
Anything!
More, more, more, more, more!
We can't get out!
It's OK. We'll
barricade it so they can't get in.
Get the couch,
the couch!
Anything!
Can we, um,
climb out a window?
No, Billy,
it's four store ye high.
Get your shit, get your shit.
How did they know we're here?
Our blood. They can smell it.
Won't they just, like...
give up and go?
Oh, no. They'll wait.
For weeks.
Well...
How long's our food gonna last?
If we ration it?
Four days, if we're lucky.
If... If you change into
the wolf then maybe...
Oh, buddy, trust me,
I've thought about it, eh.
Not gonna work.
There's too many.
There's no way I could kill
them all before they get in.
So we're done?
Well...
You made it this far.
Yeah, a promise is a promise.
Lin and I were never big
on that stuff.
But I did make one once.
What?
Whatever the cost...
...fight.
Never wanted to
leave them alone that night.
The undead
had swarmed the city.
The serum was
a Hail Mary, but...
...we knew I had to try.
The virus didn't kill them.
The undead did.
I was too late.
You didn't have to
take us here.
Sorry you're stuck with us.
Oh, mate, it's OK.
Pretty sure
I'm the arsehole of the bunch.
Yeah, well, we weren't
gonna say anything, but...
You promise me something?
Whatever the cost...
...fight.
OK, so what are we thinking?
Something stupid.
You're gonna love this guy!
Come on!
Quickly, this way.
Quick!
Oh, God!
Billy, that way!
Carter! Ah!
Billy! Run! Billy!
- Is it bad? Is it bad?
- It's OK.
Uh...
Billy! Is it bad? Is it bad?
Where's Carter?
Carter! Come, please!
- I'm scared.
- It's OK. It's OK.
You're alright.
Come on.
Get up!
My pocket.
But this is the red one.
Yeah, Megan.
Isn't it lethal?
Whatever the cost.
What the fuck?
Check those.
Billy.
Check that one.
OK, we ready?
Carter will forever be
a part of our lives.
All we have now is hope.
Hope that there are
other survivors.
Hope for a better future.
