Dead Rising: Endgame (2016) Hey what's up guys. Today I'll
show you an action-horror film: "Dead Rising, Part 2, Endgame"! Spoiler ahead,
watch out and take care! The movie begins right after the
events of the first film. The military has complete control over the containment efforts,
against the ongoing outbreak in the town of East Mission. However, the infection is
still raging on, so they barricade the city and postpone evacuation. Thousands of people
are trapped within the quarantine walls. The general's microchip implantation program for
all infected citizens is successful. However, since the military is now tracking all chipped
people, many people have been arrested, and subsequently disappeared without a trace of their
zombified hormones. Conspiracy theories are now circulating online after Jordan also disappeared;
she's a camerawoman who exposed the treachery of the military in the first episode.
Two years after the outbreak, the town of East Mission is now a barren wasteland. The zombies
are now emaciated, since they've run out of humans to feed on. But Chase, the intrepid reporter from
the previous episode, is still alive and fighting to reveal the truth to the public. An informant
tells him that the military is conducting secret experiments on several hostages inside the town.
Chase wants to film evidence of this, so he sneaks inside the city, and enters the building where the
military transport took the hostages. Working with Chase is Jill, a news producer,
and Sandra, a skilled hacker who's also his on-and-off girlfriend. They are staying inside
a car near the building Chase entered. Chase films everything inside, including
the arrival of the general, who's working with the trafficker supplying the humans
for the secret experiments, run by a scientist named Rand. The general is not happy with the
trafficker's performance, since his activities have caught people's attention. The trafficker's
goons catch Chase's informant, and drag him inside the building. The general commands the
trafficker to execute him, because he's seen the general already. The trafficker complies
and slits the informant's throat. Unbeknownst to them, Chase is recording everything.
Back in the car, Sandra urges Chase to get out of the building as soon as possible.
He runs through the hallway, and enters a large room filled with blue plastic bags.
He bumps into one of them, and discovers that there are bodies of zombies inside. One of them is
still alive, so Chase kills him with a chair. Chase runs out of the building, and hides from the
soldiers pursuing him, by entering a dark alley. However, a zombie senses his smelly
ass. Chase fights the zombie, and pushes him into a splintered pipe. He reunites
with Sandra and Jill, and they drive away. Chase shows the footage of the general to his
boss, who refuses to air the video, in fear that the military will retaliate. His editor encourages
him to develop the story further, before they can go public with the story. He thinks that
Chase is reckless, and he even mentions Jordan's disappearance. Chase still believes that he will
find Jordan, and this is the reason why he's so hell-bent on exposing the general.
Afterward, Jill and Chase go to a nearby bar to drown their sorrows. Chase shares that he regrets
leaving Jordan alone that day. He also adds it's frustrating that the pharmaceutical company
responsible for the outbreak and the general who tricked them, all got away with everything.
Chase goes to the men's restroom, where he meets a whistleblower who was a former executive at the
pharmaceutical company. He tells Chase that his life is in danger, because the military wants him
captured. Sure enough, soldiers are now stepping inside the bar, and looking for Chase.
Together, Chase and the whistleblower escape the bar. The whistleblower knows all about the
general's laboratory experiments, conducted by him in partnership with the pharmaceutical company.
He has been using the microchips produced by the pharmaceutical company, to track down and
kidnap infected people for the laboratory. But his endgame is to eradicate all the infected
people in the United States, by overloading their implanted microchips with doses of the zombie
vaccine, ensuring that the virus is eradicated as well. The whistleblower further reveals that
the microchips will be activated tomorrow morning, through the servers located in the
secret military base inside the town. He intends to stop it by going there himself, and Chase
knows how to secretly get into the city. Later that night, the general meets with the
CEO of the pharmaceutical company. She knows that Chase has footage of the general, and she is wary
of how that could affect her company's reputation. She tells the general that she wants to pull out
of their project; but he replies that it's already too late, and he's not stopping for her.
Chase formulates a plan. He gets Jill and Sandra, and they all go to his friend,
a slightly-crazy tactician with access to lots of guns. Sandra is reluctant to go along with
the plan; but she's microchipped as well, so they only have 24 hours left to save her shitty life.
Chase pulls out a map of the town, and announces to the others that the safest route inside,
would be to go under the quarantine walls. They need to get across the city alive, to reach
the server farm located on the fourth floor of an abandoned military hospital. Once inside,
the whistleblower will use his access code to get to the servers, and disable them once for all.
Afterward, Chase's friend will rescue them with his chopper. The whistleblower hands
Sandra a thumb drive, with all the information on the server system; so she can create
malware that will freeze the servers. The general discovers the whistleblower's
identity. He is fuming because the whistleblower used to work for the CEO. The CEO explains that
the whistleblower also knows that the company and the military were responsible for the first
outbreak in the town. She really doesn't want to go ahead with the plan; but the general is
prepared to accomplish it by any means necessary, even if he and the CEO will be exposed.
Meanwhile, Chase asks Jill to stay behind; so no matter what happens to him,
there is someone outside the city, who will let the world know the real story.
They enter the city through a dark underground tunnel. However,
several meters after, they discover a decapitated body lying on the floor.
Soldiers enter the friend's apartment. Jill hides and hears one soldier issue a kill order
for Chase and the others. She then approaches the editor,
and asks him to confirm her story when the military comes for her. Jill plans on drawing
the military's attention to her, and feeding them a fake story, so they won't focus on Chase.
The group continues to go down the tunnel. Chase smells the scent of a rotting corpse,
and then his friend gets caught in a trap, set by the trafficker and his goons.
Chase lies to the trafficker, and pretends that he also works for the general. But the trafficker
doesn't believe his smelly man-shit. So Chase resorts to overturning a nearby long table, and
taking on the trafficker's team one by one. Meanwhile, the friend is singled out by one of
the goons, and beaten with a baseball bat while he's still tied upside down. He manages to grab
the bat, and incapacitate the goon. He then helps Chase finish off the other goons. Sandra stabs the
trafficker just as a tank in the room explodes. The explosion gets all their gear; but luckily,
she still has the thumb drive in her pocket. They return to the tunnel, and stumble upon
a horde of zombies. However, these zombies look different. They're stronger and faster.
One of them bites the friend in the neck. With the whistleblower's help, Chase gets the zombie
off of his friend, and kills it. The group evades the zombies, and takes
shelter inside a room. the friend comments that it seems like the zombies have evolved, since
they are much faster than before. Chase adds that he saw a number tattooed on the zombie, and he
surmises that these new and improved zombies were deliberately enhanced. The whistleblower blames
Chase for choosing that route, and the group starts arguing. But eventually, Chase reminds
them why they went down there in the first place. The others cool their heads and hormones, and they
all make up. Since they lost their weapons in the explosion, they decide to cobble together
the makeshift-ones, from the tools they found inside the room. They also inject the friend with
the zombie vaccine, to stop him from turning. Jill approaches the CEO with a proposal. She can
either broadcast the story that her company is aiding the military in mass genocide,
or she can protect the CEO, by saying that the military stole the company's microchip
technology for their own agenda. The CEO refuses and discredits the whistleblower, by saying that
he's mentally unstable. Jill urges her to reconsider the proposal for an alliance.
Later on, the CEO meets with her head of security. She has her own company's interests
in mind. If the military kills off all infected people, then the company's profits will tank.
She orders her security to release a new strain of the virus, once the general has
triggered all microchips to overdose, so her company will still generate money.
The group reaches the hospital basement. However, they are overrun by zombies. the friend turns
into a zombie, and Chase is forced to kill him. He reaches the hospital stairwell, but can no longer
reach Sandra and the whistleblower, who both got separated from him because of the zombies.
Jill meets with the editor once again. This time, he brings the CEO's security,
who betrayed her because he doesn't want a new virus-strain released to the world.
The security gives Jill evidence, proving the company's shady dealings with the military.
He also explains that Rand is the head of research for the pharmaceutical company.
As part of the agreement between the company and the military, the latter will supply human test
subjects for Rand to experiment on, as he works on developing the military's program. But secretly,
he's also been working on enhancing the zombies, and creating new virus strains for the company.
He's inside the military hospital in the town conducting his experiments. This is why the
zombies that Chase and the others have been encountering, are all faster and stronger.
Meanwhile, Chase is cornered by zombies, but is rescued by Jordan, who turns out to still
be alive after all. He apologizes for not succeeding in exposing her story; but he
reasons that he was discredited and branded as a conspiracy theorist, when he tried to go after
the general two years before. Jordan doesn't say anything; but she has a companion, who explains
that they've been tortured and experimented upon by Rand for the past two years.
Jordan is traumatized by what she endured; but she gathers her resolve, and leads the team through
the hospital, and up to the server room. They hold the tech officer hostage, and commandeer
the server room. Sandra inserts the thumb drive with the malware into the server computer; but
someone from the outside is preventing her. Meanwhile, Jordan goes off on her own to search
for Rand and kill him. She makes it inside the lab, but Rand surprises
her by electrocuting her. Sandra threatens the tech officer,
and pressures him to reveal how to get root-access to the server.
The general has caught on to them, and is doing everything he can to hamper Sandra's efforts.
Chase notices that Jordan is gone, so he follows after her. He finds Jordan strapped to a table by
Rand. The doctor had just injected her with a new virus strain. Chase points a gun at Rand;
but he threatens him that Jordan will die if he dies, since she needs the cure he has. He
reasons that everything he did was to find a cure, that will save humanity from the virus.
This specific cure he's working on will give immortality to whoever takes it.
Suddenly, the whistleblower arrives, and shoots Rand point-blank. It turns out,
His real agenda is to steal the trillion-dollar worth of immortality cure from Rand. After leaving
with the cure, he presses a button to release the enhanced zombies from their cells.
Chase finds the antidote to the virus strain injected into Jordan.
Zombies are now starting to converge in the server room. The tech officer fights them with a gun,
but gets overrun by the horde. Sandra finishes uploading the malware, and aborting the microchip
program. She gets inside an elevator just in time before the zombies reach her.
Chase decimates several zombies, to get the antidote injected into Jordan. He is successful
in curing her, and they both leave the lab. Sandra gets to the roof where the chopper is
waiting. They are followed by Chase and Jordan.
The general orders military airplanes to bomb the hospital. The helicopter makes it
out in time, just as the bombs hit. Hours later, the whistleblower is walking
through the tunnels out of the city, when he's shot by soldiers. The movie ends with the
whistleblower dying with his whistleblowing life, and the immortality cure being lost forever!
