Shelter

At the end of what seems to be an ordinary day, Carter, a volunteer for his local animal shelter, heads home to his three dogs (Lucky, Bee-bo, & Rusty). Odd animal noises plague him through the night. When morning comes, hordes of zombie animals come crashing through the windows. When Lucky becomes a flesh hungry beast of the dead Carter is forced to do what he must in order to survive.
