The story

What Is Virus Undead About?

The premise of Virus Undead without spoilers.

Director Wolf Wolff delivers a zombie thriller set in the rural town of Landsberg, where a virus turns people into super‑strength, cannibalistic infected. It follows three medical‑student friends—Robert, who returns to settle his brilliant scientist relative’s estate, and his companions Eugene and Patrick—who join Robert’s former lover Marlene and her friend Vanessa. Eugene discovers a secret lab behind a wine cellar, and Robert listens to his grandfather’s recorded experiments on corpses and animals, trying to learn how the virus spreads.
