After a night of debauchery, five military comrades (Mat Best, Nick Palmisciano, Jarred Taylor, Jack Mandaville, and Vincent “Rocco” Vargas) wake up in a drunk tank after assaulting a transgender woman, only to find out that while they were passed out in their cell, a zombie apocalypse has begun and they realize that when they see a zombified Richard Chindler (William Shatner) who tries to attack Rocco, though Rocco quickly kills him with a hit to the head. Instead of panicking, the group is ecstatic and thrilled about the zombie apocalypse. After killing the zombified transgender woman and seeing the events currently going on outside such as Marcus Luttrell being attacked and devoured by zombies, the group then prepares by arming themselves with batons acquired from the police station in which they were being held. As they make their way, they find a mortally wounded soldier who tells them that they need to get to Range 15 but before they can get more information from the soldier, he starts turning into a zombie almost biting Jack, but Mat sees this and hits him in the head with a baton killing him.
After a series of encounters with zombies, the group makes it to the police armory where Heather (Jessie Wiseman) and Eliza (Mindy Robinson) have taken the building, lock the doors and refuse them entry. In an exchange in words, Heather eventually lets them inside where they find that she has Evan Hafer cuffed to a chair for not sharing weapons. The group gathers around a map, studying it, when they discover from Heather that Range 15 is a fallback point for an ELE (Extinction-Level Event). The group, now armed with rifles and sidearms they got from the police armory, begin their journey to Range 15 with Heather and Eliza joining them. In need of transportation, the group heads to the impound lot where they then decide to take Jarred's "whiskey truck" that was confiscated the night he was arrested that he uses to move distilled whiskey. Before they depart, Evan, while urinating has his penis ripped off by Zombie Klebba (Martin Klebba) and Mat then shoots Evan in the head. While on the road, the group has another encounter with zombies where they discover that a bad batch of distilled whiskey (it was mixed with Viper semen) is actually the cure for the infected after Rocco tries using a bottle as a Molotov cocktail to incinerate the zombies, but instead it reverts them back to normal. After making this discovery, Nick suggests that Mat take the whiskey over to Colonel Holloway (Keith David), Mat's former Commanding officer, to have it be studied, tested and start mass distribution. Once the group makes it to Holloway with the whiskey, Holloway then has his best man take it over to Range 15 to be tested. Sergeant Major Gene Vandenham (Ross Patterson), an extremely cocky Army Special Forces Soldier who is loved by everyone except Mat, who strongly dislikes him for his high ego.
While en route to Range 15, Vandenham informs the group that Holloway has notified him that the zombies are becoming much faster, stronger, and could possibly overtake their vehicles at any given point, to which end the Colonel has arranged for helicopter transportation to avoid the roads. After engaging more zombies near the helipad, Vandenham decides to stay back and fight off the remaining zombies, trusting the group to get the whiskey to Range 15. Once airborne, it becomes obvious that Pilot Grigsby (Sean Astin) is infected, after which he decides to jump to his death, leaving Jarred to try to land the helicopter. Now on foot to Range 15, a zombie attacks Mat but before it is killed, it manages to bite Mat in the leg. The infection starts spreading faster than usual. Nick and Rocco suggest Mat take the cure anally since the alcohol is absorbed directly into the bloodstream thus taking effect faster than drinking it. Once Mat is cured, the group continues toward their destination and eventually arrive at a Silo which is also the entrance to Range 15 and with no way of knowing how to get in, and zombies closing in, Mat decides to lure the zombies away from his comrades by having them chase him instead, leaving his fate unknown. The remaining group members eventually find a way in (a very obvious button that Jack failed to see next to him). Once inside they then hand the whiskey over to Scientist Hathaway (Jim O'Heir) who then pours some of the distilled whiskey on a zombie he has restrained to a bed to test it but nothing happens. Confused, the group is trying to figure out why it did not work until Eliza pours Kill Cliff on the zombie reverting him back to normal and then goes on to explain the whiskey is the primary element needed but to work it needs an adequate delivery system and Kill Cliff is that delivery system which explains why in every event where the infected are reverted there has been a Kill Cliff attribution. Hathaway then has the whiskey taken to the lab to be replicated as fast as possible to begin distribution.
Mat, who was presumed dead arrives at Range 15 and then explains that he was saved by "The Zombie Slaying Dream Team" which consist of Leroy Petry, Clint Romesha, Tim Kennedy, and Tom Amenta. 2LT Chandler then informs them that the zombies are breaching in and that the doors would not hold them back. They then head to fight the zombies but not before Tom Amenta shoots Eliza in the head for not knowing who Leroy Petry and Clint Romesha (Both Medal of Honor recipients) are and why they are heroes. After stopping various waves of zombies, a zombified Randy Couture appears who they dubbed Zombie Couture to which Tim Kennedy takes it upon himself to take on Couture with him being Victorious in the end. In the final battle the group take on Zombie Trejo (Danny Trejo) who single-handedly overpowers every one of them until Mat eventually manages to slice his throat, killing him.
