At a United States Consulate in Spain, a hostage situation is occurring. Lt. Mike London, Vincent, Zantoro and Osborne are getting prepared to raid the consulate. London then tells the team their next mission is on the island of New Guinea. The Terrorist Leader tells the hostages the Hope Centers are all murderers and before he can start killing the hostages, London and his team break into the room and kill the Terrorist Leader and the other terrorists. Before dying the Terrorist Leader says that everyone is doomed to a terrible death to be eaten by others. London and his team land in a graveyard 20 miles east of Goroka, Papua New Guinea. London calls headquarters asking for further instructions, but receives no response. They arrive in a housing project in a stolen jeep. London and his team arrive in the village as Lia Rousseau and Max run to them and ask for help. London sends Zantoro and Osborne to investigate. Zantoro and Osborne see an Operation Sweet Death Zombie and they shoot it. Zantoro runs out and shoots the Zombie boy in the head and tells London you have to shoot the zombies in the head. The Zombie Priest attacks Lia, but she is saved by London and his team and Zantoro shoots it in the head. They arrive outside of a village and stop when they hear drumbeats. Lia tells London and his team that she should go first and alone to meet the villagers and she gets naked and paints her face and body. She then goes into the village and tells the team to wait an hour. London and his team along with Max, drive into the village. London, Zantoro, Osborne, Lia and Max then watch a celebration put on by the village. As Zantoro is kissing a woman, a Zombie bites her and Zantoro shoots it in the head. London tells everyone to get to the jeep and the village is attacked by the Zombies. London and his team and Lia and Max then drive out of the village. The jeep breaks down and London tells his men to move their gear to Lia and Max's Land Rover and then tells Lia and Max to get their stuff out of it. Max refuses and when he swings at London, London knocks him to the ground. Lia steals London's gun and accuses him and his team of trying to pull a cover up of what is happening. London manages to grab his gun back and Vincent suggests they dump Lia and Max at the first village. London and Zantoro go to see if they can find any water while the others wait. They come across Operation Sweet Death Zombies and they run back and tell the others a large group is coming towards them. Max takes his camera and runs towards the Zombies and Lia runs to him to try and convince him to come back. Vincent and London then runs towards Lia and Max and start shooting at the Zombies. Osborne tells Zantoro he thinks Zantoro is afraid of the Zombies and Zantoro runs in front of the Zombies and reminds London and Vincent they have to shoot them in the head. London then knocks Max unconscious and drags him back to the vehicle. Zantoro toys with the Zombies and then runs back to the vehicle. London, his team, Lia and Max go inside of a house to check it out. London tells Osborne to look in the cellar, while Vincent and Zentaro search the ground floor and he looks in the top floor. Zantoro, Vincent and Max find Osborne being eaten. London saves Lia and Max holds the door to the cellar closed as the Zombies try to break into the house from the cellar. Zantoro lights a torch and toys with the Zombies while, London, Vincent, Lia and Max get into their vehicle. Zantoro lights a Zombie on fire and then gets into the vehicle and they drive away. As they are driving, Zantoro turns his hat around like Osborne used to do in respect and then turns it back around. They make it to the river and get into an inflatable boat. They make it to the Hope Center, but find it abandoned. Zantoro and Max go to look for a freight elevator and when they find it, Max goes back to get the others. The freight elevator opens and Max is pulled inside and eaten by Zombies. The Zombies then grab Zantoro and kill and eat him.
