One group played an exciting game of Last Night On Earth:
Billy the Track Star and Sally the school Sweetheart began the zombie invasion in the high school. Jake the Drifter came in from the road out of town, and Nurse Becky began at the Old Truck in the center of town. The heroes goal was clear — they had to find gasoline for the Old Truck, the Truck Keys, and make a getaway out of town.
Everyone ran for the high school, hoping for strength in numbers. (And really, how often does “let’s split up” end well in horror films?) That idea worked well, until the power was cut to the high school and the school was overrun by zombies. In the photo below the heroes are beating back the zombies and trying to make it into the school gym:
Billy found the Keys, but time was running short before nightfall, and the zombie horde kept coming. The heroes also had to deal with a sudden rainstorm, making outdoor movement tricky and slow. A decision was made: The heroes would make a run for it! Billy sprinted to the opposite corner of town – to the gas station to pick up a can of gas, and the others ran for the Old Truck. Our heroes all met at the truck, but unfortunately, so did the zombies:
Our heroes managed to fend off the zombies long enough to start the truck and speed away!
Last Night on Earth recommended here. Betrayal at House on the Hill recommended here.
