In a quiet American town, the days pass in a routine manner. However, that normality is interrupted when a strange celestial phenomenon triggers a zombie apocalypse. The calm of the place quickly transforms into chaos as the inhabitants, who barely know each other, face hordes of the undead returning to satisfy their insatiable hunger.
The two local police officers, Cliff and Ronnie, portrayed by Bill Murray and Adam Driver, are the only ones who seem to grasp the gravity of the situation. As they try to maintain order in their community—with the sardonic humor that characterizes the film—they encounter a series of eccentric characters that add a touch of surrealism to the plot. From a nature-loving young woman who marvels at the changes in the world to a mysterious arms dealer with his own agenda, each encounter reveals the town's idiosyncrasies and the inevitable arrival of death.
With a clever nod to pop culture and its distinctively dry and biting style, this story fuses horror with comedy, exploring reflections on life, death, and modern society. As the zombies take over the town, Cliff and Ronnie must join forces not only to survive but also to understand the absurdity of the situation in which they find themselves trapped. But is there really hope amidst the apocalypse?
