"R" (Nicholas Hoult of X-Men: First Class) is a zombie who has retained some of his humanity. When a group of humans are attacked by zombies, he ends up saving Julie (Teresa Palmer) from being killed by the undead. But the reason, at first he does this, is he has killed her boyfriend.

But these feelings eventually become his own--and as he mental state changes he begins to physically change back into a human. And this begins to affect some other zombies...
