Go to the full screening

Betrayed and reborn undead, Mike must romance his would-be killer to survive the apocalypse.

Mike's death at the hands of his wife and best friend launches him into a second existence governed by a cruel gamified logic: supernatural strength in exchange for genuine affection. His designated target, Jessie, greets his return with gunfire, having already killed him once. The premise thrives on the friction between her lethal pragmatism and his desperate need to charm her, a dynamic complicated by his hunger for vengeance against the living who betrayed him. As the undead swarm closes in, their forced proximity rewrites hostility into something far more dangerous, blending genre thrills with a sharp study of trust rebuilt on a foundation of lies and blood.

Motifs

  1. Gamified romance mechanics
  2. Betrayal driving vengeance
  3. Enemies forced together

For viewers who

Anyone craving a genre hybrid where survival horror collides with a twisted enemies-to-lovers arc will find fresh tension here.
