Background
After catching a rumor of something big happening in the little town of Willamete, Colorado, hard-edged freelance photo-journalist Frank West charters a helicopter to fly him into Willamete. Upon arriving, Frank notes that every entrance into the town is guarded by the United States Military, thus confirming his instincts on a hit story. After convincing his pilot to press forward, Frank discovers a horror he never thought cold exist. As his helicopter hovers low to the ground, Frank captures a few shots of seemingly rioting people killing one another. Becoming more and more curious by the second, Frank orders his pilot to take him to the center of the town. Upon arriving, a mall comes into view, a gigantic shopping center under the name of "Willamete Parkview Mall". Once near, several Military choppers attempt to run Frank's pilot off course. Frank tells the pilot to return in exactly three days to pick him up, before jumping out of the helicopter and landing on the Mall's heliport. After being greeted by a strange individual, Frank enters the Mall. He finds himself in the Security Room and takes a look around. He watches a few of the monitors and witnesses a woman being dragged out of her car and eaten alive. Frank is getting more and more curious by the second. Frank decides to press on into the mall. He then comes across a group of people shuffling about and barricading the doorways. Frank has a quick conversation with one of the men, and learns of the city's situation. It's overrun by zombies. The zombies then break down the barricade shortly after Frank arrives. Frank then fights his way through the hundreds of undead streaming into the mall back to the Security Room, where the janitor welds the door shut behind him. Frank, now trapped in a mall swarming with zombies, must discover the truth behind the zombie outbreak, whilst keeping himself and the others around him alive from the flesh eating monsters now loose in the mall!
