After a plague has turned most humans into zombies, soulful victim R (Nicholas Hoult) rescues spirited human Julie (Teresa Palmer).

She awakens in him dormant feelings and abilities, but can he get her back to the safety of the survivors' fortress that's run by her gung-ho dad (John Malkovich) - and what will happen to him once he gets there?

This cute and quirky Romeo and Juliet-style comedy chiller, based on Isaac Marion's novel, has fun playing around with the horror genre and, with the charming leads and Rob Corddry and Analeigh Tipton providing appealing support, it's a winner.
