Army of the Dead
AUnited States military convoy travelling from Area 51 collides with a car on the highway outside Las Vegas. The convoy’s cargo, a zombie, escapes, killing and infecting several soldiers before heading into the city. There, they infect most of the city’s population. After a military intervention fails, the government quarantines the city.
Casino owner Bly Tanaka and his associate Martin approach former mercenary Scott Ward about a job to recover US$ 200 million from his casino vault in Las Vegas before the military deploys a tactical nuclear strike on the city.
Ward agrees and recruits his former teammates Maria Cruz and Vanderohe, along with helicopter pilot Marianne Peters, German safecracker Ludwig Dieter, and Chicano sharpshooter Mikey Guzman, who brings along his associate Chambers.
QUARANTINE
Martin joins the team to give them access to the casino. Ward’s estranged daughter Kate, who works at a quarantine camp, directs them to Lilly, a smuggler familiar with the city, who also recruits Burt Cummings, an abusive camp security guard.
When Kate learns Lilly escorted her friend Geeta into Las Vegas, Kate insists on joining the team over Ward’s objections.
After an encounter with a zombified tiger upon entering Las Vegas, Lilly wounds Cummings and explains that a group of intelligent zombies known as ‘ Alphas’ will allow safe passage in exchange for a sacrifice. An Alpha female known as the Queen takes Cummings away to the Olympus casino, where the Alpha leader Zeus infects him.
Lilly leads the team to a building full of hibernating, normal zombies. Ward creates a path through the zombies with glow sticks.
When Chambers accuses Martin of ulterior motives, he diverts her off the path, and she wakes the zombies. After she is surrounded and bitten, Guzman shoots the gasoline.
POWER
Arriving at Bly’s casino, Ward and Kate turn on the power, Peters prepares a helicopter on the roof, and Dieter works on the vault.
Martin and Lilly stay outside under the pretense of keeping watch but instead lure the Queen into the open.
Martin beheads her and takes her head. Zeus discovers her body and returns her to the Olympus casino, revealing that the Queen was pregnant with a zombie fetus.
