Certified Crap. CrapScore 61, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
Australia's zombie apocalypse creates a serious fuel problem until a mechanic makes an appalling discovery. Scrap-built survival action collides with sinister experiments and an increasingly unusual rescue mission. The laboratory scenes repeat themselves, but the road adventure has enough invention to keep the engine running.
