Survival of the Dead
The last time anyone counted,
53 million people
and 107 every minute.
That was in normal times.
gets up and kills another person,
up and kills
on top of that, suicide,
murder, chaos and us ...
the guard ....
we added more than out fair
share to the body count, but ...
... it didn't do any good
Bring a stretcher over here.
Move it.
the dead were coming back to life.
We should have been afraid
of them. But we weren't.
They were easy enough to
kill, except when they were ...
... your buddies.
It's time.
You sent us to that hell hole.
You got D.J. killed and
now he's got to get killed again.
You f***ed up, Lou.
You can't make it right,
but you can do the right thing
I can't.
Don't. Don't.
So there.
- can I get some backup up here?
- This sucks.
We got shots fired.
I never signed up for this sh*t.
We're better off on our own.
What the hell's going on?
Whos down?
same time the rest of the world did.
Stopping people on the road ...
- Hi there.
- ... taking whatever they had.
- Is it nice to see you guys.
- We held up this bunch of
kids in a Winnebago...
...shooting a documentary
about themselves.
- What's with the camera?
- Just making a movie.
Oh, that so.
F***ing movie went out on the net.
- Millions of hits.
- Where did you get all the stuff?
- ... could of got an agent.
- Mind turning that off son.
Made a fortune if there
was anyone left to care.
Turn it the f*** off!
It had become an
- Now.
- ... all we were looking for
was a place where there was no...
... "them."
Well, that's another one we
don't have to worry about.
Amen.
I would like it if you just say
an Amen to put an end to all this.
I'd like it too, Captain. I would
Are you all with me then?
- Aye, Aye
- Yes, Captain.
Damn right.
I'm asking.
Are all of you with me?
You're being too strict,
just as you always been.
Being strict is a father's burden.
More like a daughter's burden,
if you ask me.
What if I die?
gun one of your own?
- What if you die?
- Don't get your hopes up.
No, I mean it what if you die
and get up and walk?
Would any of us be strict
enough to gun you down?
You won't have to
I'll shoot myself.
You might change your view of things.
Dying don't change a person's view's
all a dead man can do is
remember what he used to be
and keep on trying to be the same.
On to the next.
We weren't there
in the beginning
happened afterwards.
This old coot Patrick O'Flynn
decided that the living would be
better off if the dead stayed dead.
Put a posse together and went around
the island trying to clean things up.
Not everybody was on his side.
Let's go.
Law enforcement advises that
themselves against attack
Make every effort to incapicitate
the attackers brain
Any news from town?
No.
I'm just gonna sit and wait awhile.
For what, a miracle?
Been known to happen,
if you believe what the book says.
Are they all settled in up there?
All settled in.
No commotions?
None that I've heard.
Patrick O'Flynn.
Matthew Muldoon.
I know we're conserving, but ...
Where are your children?
Upstairs.
They're in bed.
It came to me that one of them had
an accident a couple of days ago.
Yeah the girl fell off her bike, so ...
And the boy?
- Went to help her and...
- Got hit by a car didn't he?
Is the boy all
right Matthew or not?
I believe whatever you tell me.
- He's ah ...
and look for myself.
Don't you go up there.
Beth, I have to do this.
You don't have to do this
No, I promise you that
I don't want to go upstairs.
I don't want to see
what your boys become.
He ain't become nothing.
He is still just and only my boy.
Don't do it Beth!
Beth!
Oh, my God.
You damn stupid fool.
- How?
- By telling me the truth.
What you wanna do with her now?
Take her upstairs and put her to bed?
No, I'll do what I have to do.
If you'll just give me the means.
It's both of them.
I'll do it, I will
But I'd give my soul if someone
will step up and do it for me.
No ones going to help you.
Not this time, not children.
There's been enough
killing for one day
You boys must not have heard me.
I said there's
been enough killing.
You have us out numbered the way
the Muldoons have outnumbered the
O'Flynns from the beginning
Now, listen to me Seamus.
Plum's always been a safe place
where a man can
live a pride for life.
We can keep it that way
but only if we do
what we have to do.
Killing our own kind like
they didn't belong to us.
Putting the dead to sleep,
before they put
all of us to sleep.
I have faith.
The day of Judgement will forgive
me and prove me right.
You're are wrong, Muldoon.
What are you going
to do with them?
Their Muldoons
that's why we need to save them.
You can't save a person
who is already dead.
Maybe theyre not dead.
Maybe they got some kind
of sickness or something.
Somebody's gonna find
a cure for this.
It might take 100 years
but somebody's going to find a cure.
The only families who ever lived on
this island were yours and mine.
No strangers, until now.
There's a stranger in our mist
Patrick O'Flynn.
and it's you ...
Lay down your hardware.
Now outside all of ya.
What's going to happen to him?
If he don't turn my way ...
... I'll have to shoot him.
Seamus.
He's my dad.
I need to be rid of him.
This island needs
to be rid of him.
You can put him on a boat.
Who's coming with me?
I've been with you
a long time, Captain.
So I'll stick.
That all?
We like it here, Patrick.
We think the best way of seeing
this through is here on Plum.
Come along, Janet.
I like it here too, Dad.
So you're leaving me now?
I'm not leaving.
You are.
If there wasn't any Muldoons
none of us would be leaving.
Why are zombies
good at oral sex?
Why zombies are good at oral
sex? I don't know.
Because they'll eat anything you
put in front of them.
Did you write that one?
Why don't Zombies eat politicians?
I don't know.
Professional courtesy.
- Garbage
- I think it's funny.
I haven't been able to
get a signal for days.
so there.
I'm telling you man all the
wrong people are dying.
Seems like all we
got left is a**holes.
Deadheads.
Their calling them Deadheads now.
going f***ing mental.
Hi, mamacita.
Cut that out will ya,
you're turning me on.
I'd let you lick me Franny
but guys just don't know how.
You give me 5 minutes
I'll change your life forever.
I don't have 5 minutes amigo
nobody does these days.
That's too bad.
No what's too bad is there is
not another b*tch in this litter.
Still generating power
but nobody is around.
Turn that thing off.
