Storyline

Its fall of 2012 and the Mayan calendar has predicted the end of the world as we know it to be less than 60 days away. Zombies all around the world feel this is their last chance to claim more humans before everyone will perish in December. A small band of Zombies have planned a meeting at a former Missile base In Hobart, Indiana to prepare for the Apocalypse. The meeting is being held here because of a secret military program that captured and killed a Zombie king in 1988, this Zombie’s remains are buried at the facility and play a critical role in the apocalyptic plan. At this meeting, the Zombies will attempt an ancient witch craft ceremony using the King’s remains to reincarnate more zombies and the “chosen one” will be there to watch over the preceding. If the ceremony is successful the Zombie population will increase substantially and we will see destruction like never before. The Human opposition has gotten wind of the chosen ones plans and is planning to put up a fight to oppose….. The ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE.
