Synopsis

A full-scale zombie apocalypse starts in London and quickly spreads all over Britain. The British Government has controlled the virus for part of its population, but no cure has been found yet. It is only a matter of time that the virus infects the survivors of the outbreak. From the south of England, where a quarantine has been stablished, British Intelligence discovers that the scientist that gave birth to the virus is alive and well in London. He is the only person who can find a cure to the disease. So, a squad of eight Task Force is sent in a suicide mission to the British capital with a very simple task: get the scientist in 72 hours or less. The fate of the whole humanity is in their hands.

What the critics say average 3.0 from 2

  • 4.0 The GuardianMike McCahill Cheung shows promise as a shotmaker and stager of blunt-force action. If somebody cares to arm him with a script editor and production grants, we could have a discovery of sorts on our hands. Read
  • 2.0 EmpireKim Newman Despite lashings of bright red gore and the obvious enthusiasm of its gibbering hordes, 'Redcon-1' is a hard slog. Nearly two hours of grunts vs zombies feels punitive. Read
