Storyline
A lethal virus spreads throughout the British isles,infecting millions and killing hundreds of thousands. To contain the threat, acting authorities brutally quarantine the country as it succumbs to fear and chaos. The quarantine is successful. Three decades later, the Reaper virus violently resurfaces in a major city. An elite group of specialists, including Eden Sinclair, is urgently dispatched into the still-quarantined country to retrieve a cure by any means necessary. Shut off from the rest of the world, the unit must battle through a landscape that has become a waking nightmare. Written by Nicolettea

Kane: Like so many epidemics before, the loss of so many lives began with a single microscopic organism. It's human nature to seek even the smallest comfort in reason, or logic for events as catastrophic as these. But a virus doesn't choose a time or place. It doesn't hate or even care. It just happens.

Trivia
When Sinclair and her troops first go over the wall into Glasgow, and explore the deserted streets right before they're attacked, the scene pays homage to James Cameron's Aliens. Both sets of troops ride around in an APC (Armoured Personnel Carrier) and they even get similar lines of dialogue when checking for a possible ambush, like "Check those corners." See more »Goofs
Factual errors: When the team first gets attacked in the ACPs a man is able to shatter the windscreen with nothing more than an axe. This would be impossible because a typical APC has bullet resistant glass 3 inches thick. See more »Quotes
