Plot
In this sequel to 2014’s Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead, Rhys is an Australian soldier and zombie hunter that delivers captured citizens to the Surgeon General and military in hopes of finding a cure. This brings him into conflict with Barry and his zombie hybrid sister, Brooke (protagonists of the first film). During the course of the film he finds out that he might be on the wrong side.
I loved Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead! It was a wild zombie flick that felt different. Set in Australia the zombie infested world of Wyrmwood isn't your typical zombie apocalypes. Typical combustible liquids such as gasoline and diesel hare gone inert. However the zombies blood is flammable and they breathe out this fuel-like substance during the day. This causes them to be more sluggish and allows them to be converted into fuel sources. However, at night they cease to breathe it out and become fast zombies. The first film also showed this made them more volatile and flammable. There are also hybrid zombies that can control other zombies. This one the inspiration for one of the classes I wrote for SURVIVE THIS!! Zombie! - Among The Living.
If that sounds balls to the wall crazy, it's because it is. The film is a movie that's constantly moving. There are tires screeching, zombies moaning, explosions happening, and automatic weapons firing. It's a super fun flick. The film's new protagonist, Rhys, is a resourceful Max Max-esque style soldier and a total badass. It's nice to see Barry and Brooke returning. Nick Boshier also returns as the Surgeon General. He is thoroughly creepy.
In Your Game
During the day, Wyrmwood Dead act as typical walkers from SURVIVE THIS!! Zombies! 2E. At night they become runners. They can also use tools and weapons if ordered to do so by a hybrid. Non-hybrid Wyrmwood Dead gain the following trait:
Extremely Flammable: Fire does double damage to the Wyrmwood Dead. Additionally a critical hit against one will cause it to ignite and explode, dealing 1d10 damage to all creatures within 10 feet.
