RUTGER wakens, badly beaten, at the bottom of a ditch in the Nevada desert. No memory of who he is or how he got there. Even worse, the world appears to be a post-apocalyptic wasteland. As he pursues a series of clues to uncover his identity, he realizes his body is decaying yet he feels little pain. His voice degenerates to the point in which he can’t speak at all. He is in fact dead but has somehow been reanimated. Reaching what is left of Area 51, Rutger discovers he was an Air Force Master Sergeant and part of a secret government project to ‘reboot’ dead bodies so they could serve as invincible warriors. Apparently he and his wife were in a deadly car crash, and he volunteered for both of them to be reanimated. With this slim memory of his wife MIRANDA, also an Air Force Officer, Rutger sets out to find her. Is she dead or a reboot? The human survivors of this bleak landscape call the reboots zombies, and the vigilantes among them are determined to exterminate what they don’t trust. A female reboot, BAILEY, haunts the deserted streets of Las Vegas. She eludes zombie bounty hunters and tracks fellow reboot Rutger into the Mojave desert en route to a deserted waterpark. It is rumored a zombie refuge has been established there. A determined loner, Rutger initially rebuffs Bailey’s companionship, but a reluctant partnership takes root. What Rutger and Bailey don’t realize is that a zombie task force, made up of surviving Air Force members, is also on their trail. They are led by none other than Miranda - but her plans for Rutger do not include the words ‘happily ever after.’
