When a rogue comet enters our solar system and collides with Mars, it sends a huge dust and debris cloud into Earth's orbital path. This cloud contains an alien virus that infects 1/3 of the worlds population. At first it only sickens, but soon mutates turning its victims into blood-thirsty zombies intent on spreading the virus.
