In 2004 DOG the Bounty Hunter first took to the airwaves. On the surface it looked like yet another one of those reality cop shows where camera guys followed the men in blue as they took down the bad guys. Dog wasn't a cop; in fact he'd spent a part of his life on the other side of the law. Still, he was decked out in a Kevlar vest with a badge hanging from a chain around his neck. The cameras followed him around as he kicked in doors and stalked his criminal prey. But this isn't really quite your typical reality cop show. These guys aren't cops. They're bounty hunters. It's a family business that provides bail bonds to get the bad guys out of jail and has the muscle to track them down if they decide to skip their court appearances. This Dog doesn't get stuck holding the bag for nobody.

The Chapman family lives mostly in Hawaii. They do spend a lot of time at a second home in Colorado, where Dog is originally from. But it doesn't really matter what the location might be. The job is always the same. The team is strictly a family affair. Dog (Duane) Chapman is "Big Daddy" and the driving force behind the operation. Beth is Dog's wife and runs the business side of the operation. That doesn't mean that she's not right there on the hunt offering logistic support. Dog's right-hand man is his brother Tim. They have been partners for decades. Then there are Dog's two sons Leland and Duane Lee. This is the core group. They operate out of two SUVs as they track and take down the fugitives. The youngest member of the team is Dog's daughter Baby Lyssa. She's a small and shy girl, but she gets in her share of licks every now and again. There is also Dog's nephew Justin, who has a spotty record of commitment to the group.

It’s been six years since the end of the Civil War, and zombies have managed to overrun the landscape.  Had this been the actual turn of events, I believe more kids would surely enjoy digging into their history books, but as we all know this is not the case.  But this is the “what-if” scenario that writer/director John Geddes portrays for us in his new Canadian horror film Exit Humanity.

We meet Edward (Mark Gibson) as he has returned home to find that his wife has been attacked by the undead and his son is missing.  With no choice but to dispatch his zombie turned wife, he sets off into the countryside to find his son.  In his search Edward confronts many zombies along the way, and with each confrontation he learns more about them.  When the time comes and Edward does find his son, he is too late; his son is also among the walking dead.  After killing his son, Edward is left as a broken shell of a man.  His only drive is to take the remains of his son to Ellis Falls where he intends to bury his ashes and end his own life.  Paired along with a narration given by Brian Cox, this is one of the stronger opening acts in the zombie genre in years.  Unfortunately this doesn’t last.
