Muted authentic color grading, natural diegetic sound throughout, tension score entering immediately.

[0-1s] Hard cut: a man opens a trash bin lid to toss in a wrapper — a zombie bursts out violently, seizing him instantly.

[1-2s] It sinks into his neck, blood spraying across the bin's surface as he collapses.

[2-3s] He drops to the floor, motionless, blood pooling beneath him.

[3-4s] The zombie turns fast, lunging at the nearest woman walking past.

[4-5s] She screams, falling back as it seizes her arm, dragging her down too.

[5-6s] Horror spreads through the mall — shoppers scream, sprinting toward the exits in a panicked crowd.

[6-7s] A mother pulls her crying child close, both stumbling away from the chaos.

[7-8s] The zombie moves through the crowd fast, attacking one person after another, each falling in its path.

[8-9s] Wide shot: bodies down near the escalator, bags and belongings scattered across the floor.

[9-10s] A man spots a long iron rod near a maintenance cart, grabbing it quickly.

[10-11s] He ducks behind a support wall, gripping the rod tight, breathing hard, watching for the zombie's approach.

[11-12s] Close-up: his knuckles white on the rod, eyes tracking movement through the chaos ahead.

[12-13s] The zombie turns the corner, moving directly toward his position, unaware he's waiting.

[13-14s] He steps out fast, swinging the rod hard into its side.

[14-15s] It staggers, falling against a store railing, but starts pushing itself back up.

[15-16s] SLOW MOTION insert: he raises the rod again, expression fierce and focused.

[16-17s] He brings it down hard a second time across its shoulder, it crumples further.

[17-18s] It reaches weakly toward him, still trying to attack despite the damage.

[18-19s] He swings a third time, connecting solidly, finally dropping it motionless to the floor.

[19-21s] Wide shot: he stands over it, chest heaving, rod still gripped tight in both hands.

[21-23s] He scans the wrecked mall — overturned bags, fallen bystanders, survivors emerging cautiously from cover.

[23-25s] A few survivors approach him carefully, relief and fear mixed on their faces.

[25-27s] He lowers the rod slowly, nodding at them, exhausted but steady.

[27-30s] Final shot: distant sirens approaching outside, he stands guard over the motionless zombie as others gather behind him.
