The CIA has an accident at a secret facility in Rojznov, Romania. The town has turned into zombies and are effectively quarantined. Their plan is not to use drones or tanks to kill the residents, but rather utilize 3 mercenaries and a jailed military man (all from the Steven Seagal School of Fine Acting) to plant a small nuclear device near the nuclear power plant. This is supposed to wipe out the zombies while making their killing look like an accident irregardless of the fact power plants don't explode and make mushroom clouds.
On the plus side, the zombie make-up was great. They used some metal music to make it into a grindhouse style. Besides plot holes you could drive a tank through, the acting was extremely sad. Why did the US president (Uwe Boll) sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger? Was that an insider's joke? Outside of the make-up, the film was less than Asylum grade. As bad as our foursome were in acting, I must give a shout out to Carl Wharton (General Carter) who made them all look good. He was worse than emotionless.
The film might have some camp value and perhaps worth the rental price to hardcore zombie fans. Not a keeper. 3 stars because I did enjoyed some of the stupidity of the plot, bad acting, and Uwe Boll as POTUS.
Parental Guide: F-bombs. No sex. "third reel" token nudity (Marissa Chang, Anelita Di Carlo, Veronica Spagnuolo)
Warning: Also released under the title "Apocalypse Z"
