code-red

No, not the next flavor of Mountain Dew! ‘Code Red’ is the latest zombie film we’ve stumbled across and on February 4th we can see if it lives up to the comparison of “Band of Brothers” meets “The Walking Dead.”

Being a HUGE fan of ‘Band of Brothers’ (oh and that other show too) it’ll be interesting to see another military take on the undead. So few can pull it off properly and most have been in novel form.

Synopsis

In World War II, Stalin created a top secret nerve gas, which went missing shortly after the Battle of Stalingrad.

Over seventy years later, the horrific biochemical weapon resurfaces in modern day Bulgaria, turning the local inhabitants into frenzied mutants and causing the dead to rise from the grave.

Amidst the chaos, US Special Forces Captain John McGahey (Paul Logan) and NATO Doctor Ana Bennett (Manal El-Feitury) must escape the infected zone before the Code Red alert is raised and everything is destroyed. Now, it’s survival at all costs… and they only have 24 hours to reach freedom.
