freezing our asses off.
I think we have the right
to know what's going on, man.
Why I look like this and like we've
come out of some damn time machine.
You're right.
That's my best friend out there.
He was eaten
and attacked by zombies.
You know what? F*** you.
I'm taking my family,
we're getting out of here.
- I'm gonna find my car.
- I wouldn't go out there if I was you.
Why, because I'm gonna
get eaten by zombies?
It's true.
Really? You're in on it, too?
You know what?
I wouldn't trust any of ya.
I think you're all high
on dope or something.
- You don't believe me?
- I don't believe you.
Follow me.
Nah.
Looks like he's been here
a while.
At least a week.
I think dogs did this.
No, it wasn't no dogs.
- You're saying a man did this?
- It wasn't a man.
Who is he?
Look like the owner of the house.
Yeah? How do you know that?
'Cause of what he got on.
- Daddy?
- I said stay put!
- Karl, please!
- How 'bout you calm down, man?
How 'bout you don't tell me
to calm down?
Try explaining things to her,
then maybe she won't be scared.
- Explaining?
- Yes.
Why don't you explain to me
what's going on
so I can explain to her,
because you know what?
Right now I don't have
the slightest clue of what's going on.
- Honey.
- Stop.
- You really don't know?
- No.
No one else sees
what's going on here?
Well, you're all fans
of horror movies, aren't ya?
Let me spell it out
for you, then.
- "Night of the Living Dead. "
- The movie?
Exactly.
I have no idea
what the hell's going on.
This is
"Night of the Living Dead. "
We're all dressed like
characters from the movie.
I mean, hell, even the house.
Look, in "Night of the Living Dead,"
seven people are trapped in a farmhouse
and they're being attacked by...
Zombies.
But what about your friend?
Hey, guys? You know what,
I think you've all watched
one too many horror films, and we are
gonna get the hell outta here.
- That's right.
- Look, Karl.
- Do not go outside.
- Don't you tell me what to do.
- You trying to die?
- Come on, we are outta here.
I know it's hard for you to believe,
it's hard for me to believe it as well.
Look, I would love to sit around
and talk to you guys all day
about vampires and zombies.
It's very, very exciting.
But I'm getting my wife, my kid,
we're getting the heck outta here.
Look, I wouldn't go out there
if I was you.
Yeah, you know what?
The way I see it,
there's a dead guy out there
and there's a dead guy up there
and this is no place
that we wanna be.
So, honey, we're getting the car,
we're getting the key,
- let's get outta here.
- All right.
Come on, let's go.
I wanna go now.
Okay, good luck.
Sh*t. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Back in! Back in!
Holy sh*t! Holy sh*t!
- F***!
- What the f*** was that?!
That's what I've been
trying to tell you!
- What was it?!
- Help me get a table.
All right, just prop it up.
All right, great, great.
This is good.
All right,
let's grab the other ones.
Let's get these other windows.
Come on.
Good job.
- Let's go. Come on.
- Are you serious?
Would you mind
putting that out, please?
- Are you kidding?
- What are you looking at?
- That truck.
- What about that truck?
- There's no keys.
- How do you know that?
- I woke up in that truck.
- You woke up in that truck out there?
- Yeah.
- Just like in the movie.
What's with you guys and
"Night of the Living Dead" movie crap?
Well, Karl, in
"Night of the Living Dead,"
the black character...
no offense, man...
arrives at the farmhouse
in a red truck.
You know what, I bet it was
that bastard who invited us here
- who set us up.
- Who invited you?
Some young guy who liked
my daughter's headshots.
Little prick.
Why, who invited you guys?
I... I don't remember.
I wonder if it was
the same guy that invited us.
maybe we'll be able to figure out
who's behind all this.
What, then call the cops?
I'm just saying.
how many of them there are.
- Well, I saw at least three of them.
- All right, three.
That's a start.
You know what,
I bet I could hot-wire that truck.
And how you gonna get
to that truck without getting killed?
- Daddy?
- Watch out.
It's okay, sweetheart. It's all right.
Can you keep it down?
He's right. I mean, come on.
You're not exactly
an Olympic runner.
We know there's three of them,
10 or 15 of them out there.
with a tennis racket is gonna cut it.
Do you?
All right.
So we'll set up some sort
of diversion or something.
Look, I saw a shed in the back
when I was upstairs
looking through the window.
Yeah, so?
There might be some stuff
Yeah, how do you know
there's anything in there?
- It's worth a shot.
- Yeah, I don't know.
I think the truck's
the best bet.
Look, I think the truck
is a trap.
Yeah, I'm with him, man.
Could be a trap.
Look, it's only a matter of time
before they come in here bustin' up...
Look, all I'm saying
is rather than just sit here
and do what they think we're gonna do,
we be prepared.
So what I can do
is I can go to the shed
and if they see me
or if I'm in any trouble, I'll scream.
And if and when that happens,
you go for the truck.
That can be your diversion.
- Okay?
- Okay, all right.
- Only if you hear, though.
- Yeah, I got it.
Okay, okay.
I'm gonna want you
to take Kyra downstairs.
- Okay, baby?
- Okay.
That situation has now changed.
We're able to report
a definite course of action for you.
Civil Defense machinery
has been organized
with food, shelter,
medical treatment, and protection
Stay tuned to the broadcasting stations
in your local area
for this list of rescue stations.
This list will be repeated
throughout our news coverage.
- Hey.
- Look for the name of the rescue...
Hey, they're saying we gotta get
to a rescue station.
Make your way
to that location as soon as possible.
Called this afternoon
by the president...
- F*** me!
- ... presidential cabinet, the FBI...
Are you seeing this?
CIA has not
produced any public information...
Rescue station.
Sh*t.
Keith?
Whoa! What...
- F***.
- You scared the sh*t outta me, man.
Sorry, man.
I can't see f*** all up here.
- I thought you were one of them.
- What you doing up here?
Looking for Karl.
He's supposed to be
watching the front door.
He took off on me.
You haven't seen him?
No! Johnny! Help me!
Why'd you do that?!
They're using it to distract us.
Looks like they're feeding us footage
from outside connections somewhere.
I wouldn't be surprised
if they're watching us right now.
- Nice.
- Thanks.
I killed one.
He's in the barn.
So what happens next
in the movie?
I don't know.
It's been a long time.
The girl shows up to the house,
black guy arrives,
some zombies...
Look, why don't you just
