Only half a dose left in Zombie Siege creates such moral complexity. The scientist girl holding that syringe knows it won't fully save him. The boy accepting his fate with that sad smile destroys me. Sometimes borrowed time is all you get in apocalypse scenarios.

The officer in Zombie Siege could have abandoned them but chose to help. His scarred face shows he's been fighting this war awhile. Driving the armored truck through zombie hordes makes him an unlikely hero. Authority figures doing right feels refreshing in this genre.
