A competition series with horror overtones, FIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (FOTLD) is an unprecedented mash-up of the reality and scripted genres. The show will follow 8 top YouTube stars as they attempt to survive the first 24-hours of a highly simulated Zombie Apocalypse. The only prize is survival.
Jesse, Joey, Justine and Olga wake up in what appears to be an abandoned prison. With Joey, Justine and Olga locked away in jail cells, Jesse must quickly find a way to free his friends so they can escape the cell block.
The team is still trapped in the cell block, but Jesse has found the key. While opening the cells, he accidentally releases a dangerous Alpha Zombie into the open, who proceeds to wreak havoc on his team.
A second team (Iman, Sam, Meghan and Jeana) wake up in the medical wing of the prison. On top of being surrounded by a zombie hoard, they discover that they are locked in a room with two zombies.
Team 1 has been locked away in a pitch-black room. When the lights come on they realize they have been captured by a mysterious paramilitary organization. With the help of Doctor Altagracia on the radio, team 1 must escape their captors, and get to the main courtyard of the facility.
Team 1 makes it out of the facility, only to find the way to freedom blocked by a courtyard crawling with zombies. Meanwhile, team 2 has escaped the infirmary, and must make their way to the Bio lab on the 3rd floor to create the antidote.
Jarrett Sleeper finds team 1, and proceeds to take them to the mess hall where he has created a safe haven for the survivors. However, the team is unsure as to whether or not he can be trusted.
After finding the map left behind by Dr. Sally Fischer, team 1 decides to venture out of the safety of the mess hall. Soon after, they stumble upon a soldier (Private Solo) who claims he can help them get to Dr. Altagracia in the boiler room.
After successfully creating part 1 of the antidote, team 2 finally reunites with team 1 in the mess hall, and together the group decides to make their way to the boiler room to find and save Doctor Altagracia and complete the antidote.
The group attempts to get to the boiler room, but it won't be easy. Hundreds of zombies stand in their way and they must put their trust in Private Solo to get them there safely. The survivors are running out of time, and need to get to Dr. Altagracia before it's too late.
