A supernatural plague has been unleashed on the world. The dead return to walk the earth, but this is no standard zombie story—here there are intelligent zombies such as the King Zombie. Deadworld is a story of horror.

Of survival. Of hope and despair. It is a saga of modern man facing his darkest side... where science and technology are no longer his allies.

Where his power of reasoning is no longer his weapon alone. Deadworld is death... yet life.
