“What will humanity become?” the tagline for the trailer says.

The logline for the upcoming movie reads, “It’s been almost three decades since the rage virus escaped a biological weapons laboratory, and now, still in a ruthlessly enforced quarantine, some have found ways to exist amidst the infected.”
“One such group of survivors lives on a small island connected to the mainland by a single, heavily-defended causeway,” the abstract continues. “When one of the group leaves the island on a mission into the dark heart of the mainland, he discovers secrets, wonders and horrors that have mutated not only the infected but other survivors as well.”
