Overview

Challenge students to analyze crisis leadership, information trust, and how fear reshapes moral choices—without relying on tiny quotes. Students trace how the cemetery attack launches a survival structure, how the upstairs‑vs‑cellar debate exposes competing logics, and how shifting “authorities” (radio/TV/posse) complicate rescue and recognition. Follow‑up prompts help quiet students speak.

Film Summary

A sudden wave of inexplicable attacks traps strangers in a rural farmhouse where strategy, trust, and fear collide as the dead return and a rescue posse closes in.

Parental Guidance

R for sustained horror violence and disturbing images; teacher preview strongly recommended.
