Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse

In a sleepy suburban town, three high school friends, Ben, Carter, and Augie, are on the verge of aging out of their beloved scouting days. Just as they plan to celebrate their last camping trip, an apocalyptic event strikes: a zombie outbreak that turns their peaceful neighborhood into a nightmare. Armed with little more than their scouting skills and a few survival techniques, the trio must navigate this terrifying new world.

Ben is the laid-back jokester who often struggles to take things seriously. Carter, meanwhile, is the loyal friend, always trying to keep the group together, while Augie, the earnest and somewhat nerdy leader of their scout troop, has a deep-seated desire for validation. As the friends band together, they encounter a colorful cast of characters. Among them is Denise, a fierce and resourceful waitress, who initially scoffs at the scouts but soon learns that their unique skills may be the key to survival. Together, they confront the dead and the living, forming a dysfunctional family that finds strength in their differences.

As they venture beyond their town’s boundaries, the group faces both heart-pounding zombie encounters and moments of unexpected humor. Each skirmish not only threatens their lives but also forces them to confront old insecurities and deepen their friendships. Augie’s earnestness to lead brings them into a series of misadventures, while Ben’s humor proves to be a crucial weapon against despair.

Themes of friendship, coming of age, and bravery in the face of fear intertwine as our heroes discover what truly matters in life. Not only must they learn to fight back against the undead, but they must also summon the courage to confront their own personal demons.
