Maailmalla riehuu virus, joka muuttaa tartunnansaaneet eläviksi kuolleksi. Australian erämaassa Andy asuu vaimonsa Kayn ja pikkuvauva Rosien kanssa asuntolaivassa. Ruoka alkaa olla vähissä ja heidän täytyy tehdä päätös astuako kuivalle maalle vai jatkaa matkaa nälkää nähden. Vastaan tulee kuitenkin puoliksi uponnut jahti, josta löytyy runsaasti elintarvikkeita. Valitettavasti sen uumenissa vaanii zombi, joka puree Kayta. Purema ei muuta uhriaan heti raivohulluksi ihmislihaa syöväksi eläväksi kuolleeksi, vaan muutoksessa kestää suunnilleen 48 tuntia. Perheen on pakko astua maihin ja suunnata kohti heidän karttaansa merkittyä pientä sairaalaa. Tilanne muuttuu kamalasta toivottomaksi Andyn joutuessa myös zombin puremaksi, joillon isällä on vain kaksi vuorokautta löytää joku joka pitää huolta Rosie-vauvasta. Se ei ole kovin helppo homma keskellä ei-mitään, jossa suurin osa vielä elossa olevista harvoista ihmisistä on menettänyt suurimman osan ihmisyydestään ja kyvystään empatiaan.
