Detailed Synopsis of "The Last Few"

I have decided to go down the path of making a movie for my media project. I feel like making a movie would benefit me more for what I want to do when I am older. I have decided to make a movie in the Zombie genre. I have always been a fan of the Zombie Genre, watching the show "The Walking Dead" and it's companion show "Fear the Walking Dead" ever since they started. I somehow feel like I know what exactly I would have to do to make a zombie film and feel like I could do a good job. I have watched many different types of zombie films and shows and feel like I have a true understanding on what makes a good zombie film and what makes a bad one.

I have decided to name my film "The Last Few" as the story behind my film is that Humans died out very fast. For my 2 minute introduction scene I want my main character to be driving down the road with his friend, another survivor and find a body with a gun laying in the middle of the road. The Main character is going to pull up and get out of the car, walking over to the body, preparing to pick up the gun he notices that the body has been bitten/scratched. Being very cautious the character bends over the body to grab the gun fast, as he does the body swings up and grabs him, almost biting him but the other survivor shoots it just in time.

This would be a good way to start of my movie as it introduces some of  living characters in the film and also introduces the though of zombies to the film.

After this the characters are going to drive down the road, talking about something when they come to a halt (for some specific reason I have not yet thought about). They are going to be pulled out of the car by a group of bandits and their stuff is taken, they have burlap sacks put over their heads and then they are taken to a specific location, controlled by said bandits and are beaten.

My 2 minute clip will be about my main characters escaping from the bandits with a smart use of zombies (as this area would have zombies just outside). I really want to put an emphasis on the danger of zombies in my film by making it so that you are more than likely going to be killed by them than anything else.

I want to do this because no film/TV show based on zombies really directs the zombies as the main threat when bandit/rebellious characters are thrown into the mix.

This is just an initial plan to my movie, something that could be changed in the future if I wanted to but for the meantime this is the current story for my movie.
