1The movie does NOT shy away from displaying gruesome imagery, before and during the outbreak. Let's hope you didn't eat before watching the movie.

3* The movie's opening shows the warehouse process of a chicken becoming chicken nuggets. It can be stomach-turning for those unfamiliar with the process, or for those with weak stomachs.
4** What's grosser is that a fly poops on the chicken head, maggots are shown slithering in chicken meat and seeing that one nugget that starts it all. It goes to show how poor the conditions are in this factory...
5** The infected nugget itself in the said opening sequence. The special-effect artists did a good job depicting what a rancid and infected chicken nugget would look like, especially from an unfamiliar pathogen. When it drops from the conveyor belt and put in the fryer, you have that feeling that one poor soul will end up eating that.
6** Then a student, Shelley, ends up getting that particular nugget. When she takes a bite into the nugget, slimy greenish-black pus oozes out of the nugget. What's worse is that the camera is up close on the nugget when she bites into it. Euughh...
7* Shelley, post-zombification. Her face shows small blisters, and her breathing is more than wheezing, it sounds... unnatural. Seeing the initial symptoms
8* When Patriot pulls on one of Shelley's pigtails, the pigtail is torn from the scalp. Even Dink and Patriot look horrified and disgusted!
9* Shelley herself looks worse and worse as the film progresses. When Patriot and Dink (Miles Elliot) make fun of her looks, you see one blister. During the playground carnage, more blisters appear on her face and she looks physically weak. As time goes on, her skin decays
10** In the alternative ending, her appearance has further deteriorated; her decaying skin and face have become very pale and covered in even more blisters than before. Her eyes are more sunken in than before, and have turned completely black, giving her a demonic appearance.
