Draft 1
This is intended to be a stand-alone episode for a half hour anthology tv series a la Twilight Zone. Just as that program presented its own twists on well-worn genres and tropes, this is me imagining how such a show might handle a "zombie" story.
Of course this mines familiar territory, just as almost every single TZ episode did. I already know that you've seen other zombie stuff.

SYNOPSIS:
This is The Walking Dead basically. Two women escape a horde of zombies (infected people) burning them with diesel. After that, they find a young man bitten and hopeless, and abandon him because they can't chop off his hand without killing him as they don't have any surgical equipment. Perhaps it was worth a try, because he turns zombie seconds after the women leave.
Then they find a 13 year old girl, who one of the women suspects...
