Synopsis:

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark! There really is, and it’s been underway for quite a while. Danish zombie flick “Escaping The Dead”, is inspired by the face eating incident in Florida a few years back! The film has its starting point in a typical day for the lead character, David. David is the local marihuana pusher, but he is the kind of dealer that smokes more than he sells.

The country has been hit by a new death drug and when David and his partner in crime, Ahmir, is offered some exceptionally cheap cocaine they see it as an opportunity to earn big money at a big techno concert the following Friday. The cocaine turns out to have a terrible side effect that creates a giant zombie outbreak that spreads across the entire Copenhagen.

In the film, we follow David and his bloody fight out of the city.
