When the dead start walking, a man who cannot organise a birthday must rescue his mother and win back his girlfriend.

Longer logline

When a thirty-year-old whose entire ambition is his local pub wakes to a city overrun by the walking dead, in a world where he barely notices for the first hour, a man just dumped for having no plan must collect his mother, his ex-girlfriend and his useless best friend and get them somewhere safe, before the only place he can think of turns out to be a pub with one door.
