The living dead have taken over the world, and the last humans live in a walled city to protect themselves as they come to grips with the situation.

I finally saw this last night. In every way, this is made for fans of zombie movies. To add to the experience, there was a guy in the movie theater purposely being creepy and making zombie noises throughout the film.

Afterward, I thought of one thing I would love to see in a future zombie movie. Nanochick, our resident bio-science superstar might have to bump up my understanding of the way this could work, but it might be possible to spin a pretty reasonable bullshit on zombies being the product of a prion based protein infection. We need good psudo-science in movies. Its important. It inspires the mad scientists and hackers of tomorrow.

"Its those government prions man. One of those things bite you, you get them bad prions. All your proteins folded. Takes an hour."

If I happen to be on to something here, and this falls into the hands of someone who becomes inspired to create a zombification prion and set it loose... I've always felt that the zombification of the world should start in Texas. I'm not sure why, it just feels right.
