We see a woman and her husband in a close embrace and passionately kissing in the shower (in a head and shoulders shot). We then see a shot from a distance and through the partially transparent shower curtain that shows a full body shot of them standing in that embrace. You can tell they're nude, but can't see any details.
A heterosexual couple films themselves having sex. brief and nothing too explicit shown although we do see brief glimpse of breasts.
In the credits, We see videotape footage of a man with a woman on a boat in a bikini and we then see her or another woman topless.

A zombie grabs at a pregnant woman and bites her offscreen, prompting one of the survivors to hit it with his shotgun. The two then struggle; the man maims his arm on a metal ledge of a fountain and repeatedly slams the zombie's head onto the side of a fountain until a woman shoots it. Afterwards, the woman stitches the wound on the man's arm; his arm is very bloody and we see the needle poking out of his flesh.
Zombies chase after a group of survivors through a parking garage. The latter get behind a fence and try to close it as the zombies attack. One survivor hits a zombie in the face with an ax handle, while many others are shot. A survivor then pours gasoline near the zombies and it's lit, catching some of the zombies on fire.
A pregnant woman bitten by a zombie who is tied up to a makeshift bed gives birth and she dies before doing so. The pregnant woman dies, her tummy moves, she re-animates, snaps and snarls at a man who puts a belt across her mouth, blood sprays from between her legs, and presumably a baby is born.
A zombie (missing his legs below the knees) jumps on a man's back and bites his neck, many other zombies gather, push the man to the ground and they all feed on him.
A bus flips and crashes from a car to a fence sideways. A few people have scars and blood on their face and get out of the bus and we see the result of a man dying from a chainsaw accident. A man comes out and gets bitten by a zombie. A woman shoots the zombie in the head, and he is knocked back against a bus. The survivors then go to another bus where zombies chase them, the zombies almost catch a woman but a man saves her being bit.
A group of people come out of the sewers and shoot lots of zombies in the dark, one zombie chases a man through a truck, he gets inside and almost bites him as he gets out. There is one scene where a man shoots a zombie in the head with exaggerated gory results all his matter everywhere including a splatter. A man grabs a profane tank, throws it and shoots at it with a gun causing a blast of explosions killing lots and lots of zombies.
A woman sees a man holding a newborn baby zombie that a zombie had just given birth to a zombie woman tied on a bed. The woman panics and shoots the zombie in the head with a revolver. The man then shoots at the woman hitting her in the chest while she also shoots him back. Both of them then die. The team discover the newborn zombie. It screeches and snarls and we hear a gunshot (apparently the baby was shot).
A man with a bite wound stands on a dock in the end while a group of zombies stand behind him, the woman gets emotional wanting to save him but she learns that he cannot be saved. The camera pans away while the survivors drift away from the boat. The man puts the gun to his chin to avoid being a zombie and we hear a gunshot (he presumably killed himself).
People talk about shooting a man who has a bite on his hand and they learned that the zombies are transmitted through bites, he begins to turn gray and his skin pale, he sits on the ground while a man with a gun points it to him, he dies, and he turns into a zombie because we hear a zombie screech and a gunshot which means he dies.
A man is attacked by zombies, he falls down a manhole and we hear his legs break, zombies follow, many are shot, they begin attacking the man and he begs to be shot -- another man shoots him.

Unlike most other zombie films, this one is much more grounded in reality and the violence is not over-the-top, which makes it more unsettling. It has a very realistic feel of what would really happen if a zombie apocalypse occurred. The zombies have a much more terrifying make-up design compared to other zombie flicks. The make-up artists based the zombie design on pictures of actual decomposed corpses from real forensic crime scenes.
The last 15-30 minutes are Very intense/gory as many zombies are killed including people in HORRIFIC ways possible it gets darker as it progresses.
The film is about a group of people stranded in a mall surrounded by crowds maybe hundreds of zombies. Characters are in constant peril and danger including a pregnant woman who is giving birth during the zombie outbreak.
The horror and paranoia feeling may startle viewers.
The film has a lot of violence and gore done very bloody and gross.
The first half of the movie contains many "Boo" scenes which are a bit frightening.
Lots and Lots of zombie-almost-bit-my-arm-off scenes.
